Sorry I can't help, but just letting you (and anyone else looking) that immich.app is the best alternative.
omg this is exactly what I've been looking for. self hosted photo sharing with collaborative albums!
lmao. You said you can't help with ente.io so you clearly haven't testes all services, but yeah sure, recommend something. Very objective. (Nothing against immich itself, I used it myself and liked it.)
There's also Piwigo which can be self-hosted or cloud hosted.
