I must be wasting so much storage on the 4 photos I took in a row of the family pose, or derivatives that got shared on whatsapp and then stored back to my gallery, and so on, and I know I'm not the only one.
https://www.digikam.org/ does a lot of what you're looking for.
Not web based, and really starts to show its age.
Personally I'd love a separate thing that could crawl the photos in a folder I point it to and then let me search using semantics and natural language. But can it please just be an exe I can double click when I need it? If it involves maintaining a server or faffing about with Docker I'm probably not going to bother.

Most tend to be backend only or much lower level. Open source projects with complex UIs and mobile apps is pretty rare I think
I would find that argument plausible if the comment I replied to didn't mention Postgres as the bar.

Immich is what I'm using right now. I'm running it in a Docker container on my Synology. It was very advantageous to spin up another docker container on my laptop to do the face recognition work because the Synology was going to take forever on it. We no longer are auto uploading to Google or Apple. So far, I really like it. I haven't quite gone 100%, as we're still uploading with Synology's photo app, but Immich pro…
If you want a solid "just upload the photos" experience, PhotoSync on iOS is really great. I think you can use Immich to just look at a folder and not use the backup from phone bits.
I think Immich checks a lot of these https://immich.app/
Been running immich on my home server for about a year now. Near zero maintenance stack, incredibly easy to update, the client mobile apps even notify you (unobtrusively) when your server has an update available. The UI is just so polished & features so stable it's hard to believe it's open source.
Is it really that stable and flawless in terms of updates?
Because I'm sat here with ZFS, snapshotting and replication configured and wondering why people scare others off of it when the tools to mitigate issues are all free and should be used anyway as part of a bog-standard self-hosted stack.

I run a pretty similar configuration on a pi 4 mounted to an external hard drive which I offload to other hard drives from time to time. The mobile app auto sync specific folders when my phone is connected at the home network. It's not flying performance wise but I mainly need a backup solution. Gonna check the apps that you mentioned. Feel free to share more details of your set up. Why are you running 2 instances? E…
Memories and Recognize work fine with the base Nextcloud docker image. My host has a GPU so I use go-vod to leverage hardware transcoding. The base NC docker image can't access Nvidia cards (probably other GPUs as well). I could script in a way to do this but would need to run it after each update. Recognize runs fine on my CPU so I haven't explored this yet. I have an OpenMediaVault VM with a 10tb volume in the netw…
Slightly Off Topic: I have always wanted (old) Apple to make Time Machine / Personal Cloud where Data is stored and processed in my property. While only offering Subscription based storage as long term storage Cloud backup and software update. For Features. I dont know why there's isn't a tag for Screen Caps. I made lots of them and I want to group them together.

I wanted to like Photoprism because unlike Ente and Immich, it supports SQLite databases and doesn't require postgres (I want to keep home lab maintenance to a minimum) but the UI was difficult to like and I couldn't get hardware encoding working on my Intel N100 GPU.
The ball-ache of SQLite not scaling outweighs any "maintenance" Postgres needs (it really is just set-and-forget and use a Docker container to schedule database backups—whole thing takes a couple minutes).
