fud, it's "shareware" in the sense that there's a dismissable popup that asks you to pretty please pay 100$, but it's AGPLv3 and no features are locked behind the paywall.
Huh. So anyone could maintain a fork or patchset and distribute builds that were feature-for-feature identical to Immich but with no nag screens. Just an interesting thought.
You can already do this with their custom css. I did it for about 5 minutes and then realized paying $99 was the right thing to do. It's a reasonable ask on their part.
So we need to make a patch then. Not great but fine.
