I use a Nextcloud app called Memories for my photos. I don’t know if it is one par with Google Photos but it’s good enough for me. There are a few providers that offer managed Nextcloud servers, personally I use the one by Hetzner.

I am very skeptical when it comes to machine learning and all the hype surrounding it, but it’s not all bad. For example an improved firefox translate would be a nice feature to have. There might also be some usecases for accessibility or adblocking.
