I'm currently looking for a software to host my images and I found this table quite helpful to compare features: https://meichthys.github.io/foss_photo_libraries/

Thank you thats really helpful
Immich has the companion app and handles auto-backup of your photos from your phone, it's basically a direct replacement for Google Photos.
LibrePhotos is more a photo gallery, it shows photos from your file system, and doesn't have a companion app.
Both do face recognition and have multi user support.
I use LibrePhotos in my home server. I did not know about Immich, either.
Although LP is updated que frequently there is still much work to do so that it is considered a complete product.
It is not a Google Photos replacement yet but it is the closest of all other services I tested.
I can’t speak for those two products but I quite like PhotoPrism. It does a decent job at auto tagging my photos.
I've tested a couple solutions and settled on Immich. Does everything I need and the pace at which they add new features and improve it overall is insane.
