Thats nice but I wish it had E2E encryption.

I don't like that I can see everyone's photos that use my immich server.

Not that I'd look, but I can if I wanted to, and that's why I only use my server for family

Pretty much using for your family and not for a photo sharing app for everybody is how Immich was built…

I commented elsewhere here, but E2E encryption is just between the server and the end user (ie a VPN)

You’re thinking about encryption at rest, on the storage.

Immich would have to setup a whole new design to be able to store all the metadata on a per-user basis… but… you could have multiple Immich instances if you were to host it for your friends, but I think we’re drifting into “why bother” now…

  Encryption at rest just means the data itself is encrypted when stored on disk and the key is somewhere. It doesn’t dictate that the key is not visible to the server.
  
  Encryption in transit refers to an encrypted channel from client to server.
  
  E2E encryption usually refers to encryption from one entity to another where any intermediary servers do not have the ability to decrypt
