I’m looking a for photo-storage option for the long-run.
Open-source is not a must, but nice. E2E encryption is not a must, but nice.
I just want to place to store, edit(?), categorize, search, share my photos. And I don’t want to the place to be Google, Apple, or Microsoft. So, this does look interesting.
However, I also want to low-maintenance, low-cost, stable long-term solution. I value convenience.

Open-source is not a must
If you’re looking for anything “for the long run” then open source should be a must, because everything else will eventually become unsupported and without source code access you’d have no recourse to continue maintaining it.
Immich is a perfect photos app, and although still under heavy development it is quite polished already.
Low maintenance depends on your definition ai suppose. As it’s under heavy development you do need to often change the config with a new update.
But it has a Google Photos like interface, facial recognition and object/scene recognition and searchability (all of this is done locally on the server), etc.

What options should I consider?
Proton Drive just added photo backup to their app. It’s new, and lacking features, but automatic backups and sharing are working.
The whole proton suite is pretty good, I’ve been very pleased.

What would be the best way to set it up on a raspberry pi, keeping in mind privacy & security?
Run the docker container rootless, password protect it, and don’t expose it to the Internet? Pretty much applies to any Docker container.
