Did you try Synology Photos? If so, how does it compare?

Looks great! At the very least, I’ll start using it at work to assist in documentation (something is better than nothing!)

I use Fedora simply because I got a Framework and the fingerprint reader didn’t work in (K)Ubuntu so I tried Fedora as a little test. It worked, so I just stuck with it - everything else worked as I wanted, and it gave me the opportunity to try a completely new distribution.

Rustdesk is FOSS, no? You could certainly run an instance yourself to be more comfortable with where the data is going.

Have you used one? I constantly right click on things because I’m expecting it to be centred

It’s definitely AI, so the original is probably square too

Looks great! Is there more documentation than the website FAQ and the readme.md?

Highly recommend installing Proxmox or just a server version of a distribution. Much lower OS resource requirement means more available for everything else.

In the end, you can chuck Windows back on if the experiment doesn’t work out.
