Photoprism looks great, thanks! I've been looking for a project like this, but my biggest requirement is that it doesn't move my photos from where they are, which no project I've found can satisfy. Everything insists on moving things to its own store.
I have the exact same issue. I've been looking for something that will just work and have both facial detection and "object" detection (dogs mostly). I think I tried photoprism a long time ago and it failed on my requirements unfortunately.
Which requirement did it fail, do you remember? I just installed it and it's indexing, and it found both faces and dogs fine so far (hasn't indexed much yet, though).
So, my memory failed me. The one which I couldn't make work was Photonix not PhotoPrism. It is still indexing my pictures and it kinda succeeded identifying some things (and others with lots of errors, eg. Dog as Hummingbird!). I'll wait it finish to confirm, but I feel already the need of two things:
- fix tags & retrain?
- face tags to identify and search for persons
It was maybe 1 year ago, it was failing any recognition, it was just unable to index anything. I'll try again today and will test these other alternatives listed in other comments too, hopefully something will actually work now.
