If the internet disappears or you lose access to it for some reason, you can still see your photos.
Comment on Where is Immich going to be in 1 year? What's your prediction?
roofuskit@lemmy.world 7 months agoJust out of curiosity, what’s the use case for having all your photos actually on the phone as opposed to remote access from your phone?

You can survive a day trip without access to your photos.

Unless you’re a professional photographer who likes self hosting… 😝

That would be an insane amount of phone storage. I don’t think a single available smart phone could sync an entire professional library of photos. Especially considering how large each photo is.

A professional photographer doesn’t use cloud storage to store the GBs of RAW files from their shoots

Backup, redundancy, easy access… If my server goes down I don’t have the time to fix it at the moment.
Also the photos app on my phone is quite good, so I find it very easy to find old pictures quickly.
I also prefer offline-capable solutions
