      One of the best replacement for Google Photos and generally a great photo gallery software is PiGallery2.
      OpenSource, Docker-based, Fast and minimalistic

      The gallery is a directory first gallery. It renders your directory structure as it is. Creates thumbnails on the fly. Can be run without any database but support sqlite and MySQL databases too.
      Features:
      Photo viewer
      Nice photo viewer with optional information panel that shows all important information about the photo.
      Map
      PiGallery2 reads the location data of the photos and puts them on a nice map. The gallery also supports *.gps file to show your tracked path on the map too. It by default supports OpenStreetMap and Mapbox, but you can also add you own favourite map provider.
      Advanced searching
      App supports full boolean logic with negation and exact or wildcard search. It also provides handy suggestions with autocomplete.
      Sharing
      You can share your photo folders with your friends. The sharing link can be also password protected.
      Video playback
      It also supports *.mp4, *.webm, *.ogv and *.ogg files.

        Be great to have this. There is a severe lack of decent gallery apps on Cloudron. Lychee is rubbish imho.

        I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

              Are there still browsers out there that don’t default to https?

                No idea, but HTTPS links are good practice all round.
