The Google Photos feature of finding photos of a specific person in your collection by their face is the key feature my wife really loves. Is there a self-hosted tool (ideally Synology NAS compaible) that gives similar functionally I could have more control over how it’s using/analyzing our photos, rather than needing to trust Google with our family photos just for that feature?
Immich is pretty much a self hosted version of Google Photos. I highly recommend it. It’s under very active development. I’ve been using it for a few months now and it’s been rock solid despite all the dev on it.
Synology’s new-ish Photos app does this, no?
Here’s a screenshot of the “People” view under albums, from their Photos Mobile app. Looks similar under the Synology app.
