I’m trying to reign in my iOS camera roll and I figured it would be easier on desktop. Turns out the Photos app suuuuuuucks. All I want is to categorize photos by tag or folder and then remove them from the main view. Albums are nice in theory but they’re an extra click/tap away from the home screen and don’t hide photos from the camera roll. Is there a better way to do this?
I have 5 family members using Synology Photos (on a 4-bay Synology NAS) and it’s a great solution for us.
I don’t see myself going back to a cloud-based solution - this one is easy for me and secure.
I’ve got SHR running on my storage, and daily offsite backup to another family member’s house (protects against house fire etc for loss of 20yr+ of photos and videos).
Once you offload from your phone, you can pare down the photos remaining on the phone to whatever you want to be left.
