I’ve seen a lot of recommends for Immich on here, so I have an idea what the answer here is going to be, but I’m looking for some comparisons between it and Photoprism I’m currently using Synology Photos, and I think my biggest issue is it’s lack of metadata management. I’ve gotten around that with MetaImage and NeoFinder. I’m considering moving to something not tied to the Synology environment.

In the sense that immich warns not be the only way to store your pictures, while Photoprism advertises as a bug-free program, that adds new features very slowly in order to be bug free.

Maybe, but why would you store your images in only one place to begin with?

I like to have 1 folder with all my pictures that is syncthing’d to another computer and a cloud provider

Seems like a decent strategy, I use syncthing for a long time with no problems! Maybe a spare hard drive too? Can never be too sure…

Can’t you just mount a RO volume to an Immich container?

Not for the pictures uploaded through the app.

Makes sense. Though if one wants security maybe it’s better to use something like PhotoSync to copy the photos through FTP/anything and mount the volume RO.
