It looks like a sync is made with each connected device, which results in compromised picture quality or huge storage across devices

I've been an active user now for over a year, and it checks a lot of my boxes including 100% non-cloud, Windows/Mac compatible app, standard OS folder & file based storage in addition to NAS and cloud storage support, auto-upload pics and videos from Android and iOS devices, advanced search, and most importantly - the ability to view any of the 200,000+ pics/videos in my library from any of my devices, anywhere at anytime). They use standard EXIF metadata encoding, and/or standard XMP sidecar files - no proprietary databases. If you look at my previous posts I sound like a broken record, but I'll dutifully repeat it here again: take a look at Mylio ( Mylio supports face tagging and a whole lot more. Is there any application on the market that offers this?

All applications appear to use their own db, which makes it less portable nice to have would be (automatic) face tagging, but stored in the file itself. However, in the new Photos app, this is no longer available. Synology Photostation offers it and it provides a great search functionality. most important feature is that it can read face tags stored in the file itself.

There's one feature that I haven't found in any of the applications: XMP face tag support (created with Windows Live Photo Gallery or DigiKam). Nice article, it lists pretty much all applications I've tried so far.

I've only had to do a few clean installs over the years (otherwise, it's just in-place upgrades), but the process has simply been to install it manually by following the official install guide then doing some very basic tuning (I basically just extract the archive to the web server, then tune the file size limits and server counts in PHP-FPM).

These are all 'community-supported', and from various comments I've seen around the place, can be hit and miss. Most of the reports I've seen about issues are with people using a Docker image, Snap package, or VM image. I've been using NextCloud and OwnCloud for years, installed manually on top of Apache, using PHP-FPM. I just go into the web UI, click 'upgrade', and off it goes, and does its thing. Data transfers as fast as the network can handle it, and it's low-maintenance. I've used Nextcloud successfully both at home and for business use, and have never had any major issues. Tye NAS also runs a bunch of other Docker containers installable from the NAS interface with one click. This has enough power to cope with 4-5 users syncing via the Asustor mobile app. I chose an x86 cpu powered Asustor + 16Gb ram. I have a family, business, life so compromised with syncing to a commercial NAS + Backblaze B2 backup + backup to removeable usb from the NAS. Nextcloud has major performance issues, not to mention its habit of going tits up every major upgrade. I would like more responsiveness for a photo viewer. My photo library is a bit over 6,000 upon attempting to open the folder (app or webview) takes a good 30 seconds - 1 minute to open.

The major negative with NextCloud comes into play when you try to view any large folder with lots of files photos included. Regular new photo uploads is quick a anti-climatic. It helps to remove the screen shutoff and let the app run over night. The first backup (all iCloud photos) takes a while (weeks to months) when you have 1,000s of photos. We're an iOS family, and we recently switched from Plex for backups/autoupload to Nextcloud. My experience with NextCloud for photo backup is mixed.
