Ente: Open-Source, E2E Encrypted, Google Photos Alternative
I’m glad that they chose the AGPL when open-sourcing their server. I don’t see that many companies, especially ones offering a “product”, open-sourcing their work with a copyleft license.
Why should I use this over Immich?
Almost impossible to google for german users.
For now it seems like you need to modify and build the apps yourself to be able to use the newly open sourced backend server. This doesn’t make it very realistic to use for self-hosters.
If they ever change that, it might be worth another look.
