Hey everyone, I'm hoping to find a self hosted and hopefully FOSS alternative to flickr for photo organization and viewing

The sharing with friends part isn't important

What we're looking for is a way to store collections of photos, organized and viewable the same way as Flickr

This person takes a ton of photos all the time but they want a place to store the best/only the highlights/their favourites, organized into albums by destination/location/vacation and most importantly easily viewable to reminisce about the good times

They used to use Flickr for this until it wasn't free anymore

Piwigo loocks great. How does it compare to Immich?

Piwigo supports multiple users with different access rights, while Immich does not. Immich supports videos and Live Photos while Piwigo does not. Piwigo is a php application and can be installed by ftp on a basic web server and database (same requirements as Wordpress), while Immich requires a docker container. Both Piwigo and Immich have phone apps, but they differ in functionality. Piwigo is set up to upload individual photos while Immich is set up to backup ALL of your photos.

Immich does have a pretty robust user management... https://immich.app/docs/administration/user-management/

Yes but in Immich each user has their own independent album/gallery, whereas Piwigo is a single gallery with different access rights to users.
