I’m already hosting pihole, but i know there’s so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!
Edit: Thanks all! I’ve got a lil homelab setup going now with Pihole, Jellyfin, Paperless ngx, Yacht and YT-DL. Going to be looking into it more tomorrow, this is so much fun!
Google has features that I can’t live without. Like Photos can add photos to an album based on face recognition - I have an album for my mother where my kids’ photos get added so she can keep up with what’s happening even though she lives far away from us. She posts comments that we read to the kids so they feel grandma is at least a bit involved in their lives. What’s also important is that it’s easy enough for her to use, she’s not very good with tech at 77. So, as much as I would love to get away from Google’s ecosystem, it’d be very difficult for me to give up this feature.
Another user posted about photoprism, which has AI powered features like facial recognition. Might be worth checking out.
He could also checkout Immich, which is much closer to Google photos UI.
Or the Nextcloud plug in Memories.
Wow that looks really cool, I’m gonna have to try it
