I also self-host this together with Tailscale. The UI is not very polished but certainly very usable already.

My personal journey was to get rid of my dependency on iCloud Photos. I managed to export two-decades worth of pictures and videos using a separate tool (https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos) and then import into PhotoPrism. Coming from Apple Photos, the UI is a bit lackluster but the freedom of owning the entire data more than makes up for it.




Have you been able to export meta data from iCloud and import it into PhotoPrism? (e.g. custom photo comments)


I personally do not have any photo comments but I suppose the software can handle it. From https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos#command-line-referenc... I think it will support exporting XMP metadata files with photo comments. Then from https://docs.photoprism.app/user-guide/use-cases/apple/ I think PhotoPrism will correctly import descriptions in XMP files.
