Been trying it for a little while. It’s exactly what I have been looking for.
- Works great
- is encrypted
- can be self hosted
- edge ML for photo search (not perfect yet)

Been trying it for a little while. It’s exactly what I have been looking for.
I have around 800 GB of photos from me, my dad and my fiance. That would be $ 20 a month. Ok, still not bad, I don’t think I could get it much cheaper on a VPS.
For now what I’m doing is running https://immich.app on my laptop at home with a connected external USB drive. It’s not e2e encrypted, just with ssl on https. But other than that it seems to have similar functionality.
B2 is about $5/TB.
If you keep your eyes open for deals (LowEndBox) you could find an inexpensive storage VPS. I’ve got one now providing 2 TB for $5/mo.
Damn, that’s a great price. Who is your VPS provider so I can keep an eye out for similar deals?
Would like to hear how it workes out for you if you decide to transfer all 800 GB
I also really wonder, they say face recognition and ML categorization happen on the edge. I guess this would drain the battery quite a lot doing it for the 800 GB and it will take forever.
