I store all my travel photos on my own private server while keeping them safe — here's how
If you want to keep your memories accessible forever, self-hosting Immich is the best solution. Here's how I did it.
To some extent, everyone enjoys traveling, and the memories you create while visiting new and old places are something you should cherish for the rest of your life. We live in a time when capturing those memories and saving them for later is easier than ever, but it often comes at a cost. Cloud storage costs can add up, and if you use a service like Google Photos, you're giving Google access to your pictures, which can be used to improve facial recognition and other Photos features. Not to mention, relying on Google opens you up to other potential issues, such as your account being disabled without prior warning.
