Because of course it won’t
I dumped Google photos for self hosted immich and it’s been great. Not sure if it has the ability to connect to photo frames but if you already self host anything else it’s not too much work to setup.

I went to install immich but it was very heavy… I don’t need AI in a selfhosted Google Photo’s replacement.
I’m sorry, but then you are the minority. AI image categorization and face recognition is amazing for finding specific pictures quickly
This is one of the few things I can get behind with machine learning. Locally run, doesn’t “phone home”, just analyzes faces and categorizes them. That’s it.
It’s really not that heavy. I have Immich - and several other services - running on a 4-core VM with 16GB RAM, running on 7th gen Intel hardware alongside another 4c/16GB VM and several LXC containers. It does the job just fine with more than enough overhead.
Does that run on top of next cloud or can I run it independently of next cloud?
I’m still salty about them discontinuing synchronization between Google photos and Google drive years ago. Such an unnecessary and irritating move. Before that it was getting rid of the picassa desktop app which was actually quite a good photo library manager. The enshitification marches on.
I was still using Picassa desktop up until about a year ago. I only stopped because the software doesn’t support HEIC.
Stop using Google products. Uninstall Chrome, delete Gmail, etc.
Sounds like another reason to keep dumping google crap
