One of the best pieces of self-hosted software ever to exist.
Edit: This is Immich! for the folks who don't know.
Their auth is better than the tool itself (last time I evaluated options which was maybe a year ago)
Oh they update a lot. The clients have gotten really snappy, which is nice because browsing photos felt a bit cumbersome before. There's now automatic albums and facial recognition, if you opt in to that. Was going to say that there's no editing tool but there is. It's quite basic though, three tabs, crop, transform (rotate, flip, resize), and colours (brightness, contrast, saturation, and blur for some reason lmao).
There's also a bunch of sharing features. You could share images or albums directly, or even create embeds for if you have a portfolio website. I pretty much only use it as a backup service though.
