Partner sharing inconsistencies
I’ve been enjoying Immich for a while now, in the form of 2 accounts with partner sharing enabled and a shared timeline. One thing keeps confusing and annoying me:
If partner 1 added a photo, partner 2 can not add it to an album while viewing the photo. They can still achieve it via bulk selecting from the timeline. You can even add the partner’s asset to your unshared album. This also applies to favoriting, except when you bulk select and favorite it will ignore the partner’s assets.
To make things more confusing partner 1 can see heart-icons on the timeline thumbnails when partner 2 favorited those items and partner 1 did not (they still do not appear in the favorites list of partner 1).
I understand the limitation on trashing or editing the photo details when they are not yours, but favoriting/adding to albums are non-destructive actions. Why would it be restricted or why would the controls be hidden?
