On my home server I backup my photos from my phone to a self-hosted photo management system called Immich. Immich is alot like Google Photos but self-hosted. It can organize the photos by date, location, and even faces. It also has a web interface and mobile apps for viewing the photos.

Hardware

I wanted to have a photo frame that would display the photos from Immich. pimoroni had a view options using the RPi Pico, but they were always out of stock, and I wanted a bit more processing power for the photo frame. I decided to use a Raspberry Pi 2W and a 7.3" e-ink display from Waveshare. I used a Waveshare hat for my Pwnagotchi, so I was confident that the Waveshare display would work.
