Ars Technica featured article reviews Photonix

28 Jun 2021, 7:17 p.m.

We were thrilled to be featured in an article right at the top of Ars Technica’s homepage from Wednesday 23rd June until some point in the weekend.

The article runs through all the self-hosted solutions that exist for moving away from Google Photos.

This put is in front of a much wider audience than we've ever had and this has been proven in terms of traffic and mailing list sign-ups. We were mentioned 2nd in the list which is also a bonus.

You can read the article here:

Google Photos is so 2020—welcome to the world of self-hosted photo management

For not being a 1.x.x release, it already looks nice, and the feature set described sounds like the best google photos replacement I've found yet! Thanks for your work!

I love this project! My dream would be a photo organizer / tagger that just goes through all photos at night and automatically detects and learns the contents.... I will follow you for this project and am happy to test any versions.

Nice job, looks very good! Also I like the tags instead of albums feature!
