Pick Lychee (LycheeOrg) when

  • Self-hosters comfortable with Docker
  • Privacy-focused personal photo libraries
  • Small groups sharing galleries on their own server
  • PHP/Laravel hobbyist admins

When Lychee (LycheeOrg) is not a fit

  • Non-technical users wanting plug-and-play photo backup
  • Businesses needing vendor SLAs or guaranteed support
  • Mobile-first users wanting automatic camera-roll sync (Guess: Immich fits better)
