I have spent a long time at Synology Photos, along with my family. We have tags and albums. Is there a good way to migrate? I’m even open to migrating manually (album by album) if I could trust the process.
I did this. I kept both.
I have Synology photos and immich.
Synology photo is faster to load photos when you scroll to a random date. Also on mobile, the map view is fast and reliable. Also the Android widget can show images of a specific person instead of a random photo.
Immich has better face detection and significantly better search tool. But is super laggy when you’re looking for a specific date and time and location.
My Synology is a DS 1821+ with dual nvme cache and 32gb mem My immich is running on a proxmox using a late model Xeon processor and NVME gen 3 and 32gb mem. Nothing else is running on the proxmox.
So you have duplicate data or they are reading the same data?
I have too much data to have it on the proxmox. The source of truth is on the Synology and I have the proxmox running the immich database and thumbnails.
