and tagged it with Photo sharing @ronguest That sounds interesting, but am I right in assuming it’s for the Synology NAS only? I currently don’t use a NAS (I have an old Drobo gathering dust on a shelf) and I was hoping to solve this with either my Linode or an always on MacMini.

13 Features of iOS 13: The long press
This sounds like a feature that works exactly as I should and as expected.

and tagged it with Photo sharing I’m looking for a self-hosted alternative to iCloud photo sharing for private photo sharing with the family, and I need your help finding it.
Here’s what’s great about iCloud sharing:
The main problem is that it is exclusive to the Apple ecosystem. That excludes part of the family. If I’m going to change things up it would also be nice if the new solution was hosted on a server controlled by me.
So, a self-hosted alternative to iCloud photo sharing, with apps for viewing on both iOS and Android. Any recommendations are much appreciated.
@MrHenko I don’t know if it has everything on your list, but the Synology NAS software has two different tools for storing and sharing photos and albums. One is called Photostation and the other is Moments. I use my NAS for storing/backing up photos from iDevices but I don’t use it for sharing so I’m not sure how close a match it is.

@MrHenko Yes, that is for their NAS.
