So the final thing tethering me to macOS is Apple Photos, which is really a fantastic program.
PhotoPrism looks like it’s improving quickly, but I was curious to know how it’s going today with regards to:
- Search filters
- Date
- Place
- Object/person recognition
- Text recognition
- Live Photo support
- Ease of importing
- Album support, including smart albums
- Built-in touch ups
- General stability
Usual precautions apply, the app does not bury the lede:
Good news is that it’s slated to go stable some time this year iirc.
In keeping an eye on it. I use a rinky dink asustor solution for my photo storage and backups. It’s cludgy as all heck.
I love that they clearly say that. IMO they should keep that notice around even later on.
Far too many people spin up some solution for photos or files, either selfhosted or some paid service, and use it as their only storage. Then they’re surprised when data loss happens.
Yeah I’m no data retention expert but that is a huge risk.
