Right Management for a family
I am about to setup my Immich instance for me and my family (2 parents/ 1 Child). Regarding the rights management I have some ideas in mind but don't know if I can make them happen.
Optimal solution:
- Everyone has his own account with the own pictures. (Done)
- Everyone makes own pictures and family pictures. The pictures for the family we want to share. (Manually)
- If a shared family picture is edited/removed each person should decide themself if they want to go with the change.
The feature "Partner Sharing" is not sufficient for me. Me and my partner don't want to be overloaded with the pictures from the other person.
So I was exploring the share album function to see if this is able to help me:
Setup: I was creating a Shared Album in my account and shared this to my partner. As editor.
- I can add pictures to this album and my partner can add pictures to this album. (Perfect)
- I can remove my pictures and the pictures from my partner from album. (fine)
- I can not see the pictures added by my partner in my timeline / map. Is this a bug or is it intended? (missing)
- My Partner can not remove my pictures from the album. Is this a bug or feature that my partner (editor) can not remove the pictures from my album? (missing)
- To get a own copy of the shared pictures i tried to make the following:
1. From my partners account I wanted to make a copy of the pictures to an new album.
2. selecting all pictures
3. Add to album
4. Created a new album.
5. "Info Added 145 assets to copy_family3"
6. The new created album is now empty.
- Event if i want to copy them again to the new created album it is stating that the pictures already exists.
- Is this a bug or do I miss something?
It will even gets more complicated after my small one is getting to make own pictures which needs to be saved and shared.
How do you realize your family rights management? Did I missed a function in Immich which makes this easier?
