face recognition is ok, not better or worse than Apple’s own.very powerful, but resource intensive (my Raspberry pi will run a bit hot).Some initial thoughts on photoprism, nextcloud photo and synology photos
I really need to re-think the entire endeavor … and NO I’m not going to turn on iCloud photos! So… that’s what I’m looking for - something better.
#PHOTOSYNC REVIEW CODE#
It’s just rather tedious to me… Apple’s sync’ing code is not super smart and usually just deletes ALL your pictures off each device before putting them back on. Ideally I just want all 3 devices to have the SAME stuff on them… I’ve got a small photo library of perhaps 1200 photos and a bunch of videos… (long story)… I can only imagine what it would be like if I had 10k photos or more… You have to fiddle around to get it to do that. Now to sync the iPad again, you’ve got to jump through some hurdles with MacOS… It doesn’t like a forced sync frequently in my experience and doesn’t always want to re-sync the photos library back onto the iPad. Now sync the iPhone which will now have the original Mac’s photos, the iPad’s photos and of course it’s original photos that were imported a moment earlier. Now you plug in the iPhone… import the new photos there to the Mac’s “master” Photo library.
#PHOTOSYNC REVIEW MAC#
Then the Mac sync’s the IPad’s photo library with that which is on the Mac - including the photos that were just imported into the Mac. So, you plug in your iPad first (doesn’t matter which) and have it import all the new photos (screenshots, etc) to your Photo Library… all is fine. You have two iDevices - an iPad and an iPhone… Both have new (and different) pictures on them that are not on the other. Ideally Apple is trying to shun people away from using it in favor of iCloud (as far as I’m concerned)… No … you can sync directly to your Mac from your “i” devices… it’s a legacy feature of MacOS and has been around for years. If I could find something that would make my digital life easier that would be great… I’ll be watching these threads - maybe I’ll get some inspiration! I’ve got an old HP desktop (Elitedesk) using an SSD for the moment and am hosting movies and whatnot on it as it’s running Linux like a champ. I think the biggest thing that I’d like is some easier way to get pictures moved from my iPad, iPhone and my two cameras (Olympus Pen-F, GoPro Hero 11 black) all into one place. I did play with PhotoPrism a bit and other similar self-hosted apps as well… I guess for me I’d like some of the features that the apple Photos provides such as automatic name recognition, and that sort of thing… It’s one of those “lather-rinse-repeat” sort of things… I’ll admit that it’s a MAJOR hassle to sync all of these periodically - something that frequently takes me an hour or so… The two devices just don’t sync well with updating photo libraries on them - a general source of frustration for me.
#PHOTOSYNC REVIEW PRO#
To this point I’ve been syncing all of my photos on my Mac - from my iPad Pro and an iPhone 8+. I currently do not store any photos in the cloud as I just don’t trust it and have a friend that lost all of her photos on day in iCloud several years ago. Hmm… You touched on an area that I’m interested in.
