@aaronpk They've gone with a Google photos-like layout. I like this although it's ironic as years ago when they first released a photos app, I argued they should take this direction, but they were enamored with the "everything must be square" "crop all the things!" approach.
The new app also has object / person recognition.
Looks like I'm a few versions out of date, so here we go! -

@aaronpk #Nextcloud's new photo app is nice (the one in Nextcloud Hub 3). It is self hosted, but there's many places that will host Nextcloud for you, often for free with a limited space.
I do already run a NextCloud for a few things, I might have to update it and see how the new app is -

I share vids and stuff with an Azure storage account and set a SAS key with an expiration. Then share the url.
I'm glad it works but that sounds like the most convoluted way to solve this 😅 -

@aaronpk If you do not want to create an account it means they are shared publicly, or you can password protect them. But if you want to add more to the mix, then this idea sounds like a nightmare for any server admin. Imagine bots adding lots of messedup photos to your server, constantly.
Thus you either need a file sharing without account solution, like send.trom.tf/ - you add the photos/files, you put a password if you want, you share. Or by far the best is Nextcloud. files.trom.tf/ - create a quick account and add your photos, then add more, then share as you wish. If you need more storage space let me know. We extend it for those who want. All is free of course.
Creating *an* account isn't a showstopper, I just don't want people to have to create an account on an existing ecosystem that they aren't already in. -
Good thing I already run a NextCloud instance!

yes i ran it from my laptop with ngrok and basic auth on apache
Nice. That's looking like it might be the simplest option. The design is nice -

maybe not the best way but i had a good experience with waschinski/photo-stream on github (jekyll)
Looks nice. And then put it behind a password of some sort? Have you tried that before?

We use hightail for distributing audio/ video & artwork files - You could use that. You can send a group folder and have work spaces - You can also have password protected files/links.
Hm that looks nice but may be a bit more "pro" than what I'm looking for in this case -

Honestly, probably a private group message on your app of choice. iCloud can share no-account-required photo sets via iCloud link, but you can’t add to the link over time and would have to reshare. Otherwise you could go old-school and self-host a photo page behind a password.
Going old school may end up being the best option to be honest
