Better link: <a href="https://opennoodle.de/" rel="nofollow">https://opennoodle.de/</a><p>The submitted title’s framing “alternative to Google Photos and Immich” is dodgy because this is a soft fork of Immich, adding certain features, described in <a href="https://opennoodle.de/noodle-gallery-vs-immich/" rel="nofollow">https://opennoodle.de/noodle-gallery-vs-immich/</a>.

My only issue with Immich is the partner sharing and face recognition overhead per account. It is a massive oversight. Looks like Noodle Gallery explicitly solves this (and more). I'm sold.

It's not really an alternative to Immich as the title says, it's a fork that's continuously rebased with each release.

  And quite a few of the features seem like common sense additions that should be pulled into Immich itself.<p>It's not entirely clear to me what warranted a forked release, are the immich devs not open to accepting some of these new features?

    They forked because these are all heavily vibecoded changes that we don't want to merge upstream as such. (- I'm on the Immich team)
