Großartig

Ich hab nach einer Lösung für eine einfache, geteilte Familienbibliothek gesucht. Die eine Hälfte hat iOS die andere Android. Und diesen Graben scheinen kaum Werkzeuge zu überwinden. Wir haben zuerst was mit Nextcloud gemacht, aber das ist nicht so schön für Fotos. Ente sieht großartig aus, funktioniert superschnell und was mich überzeugt hat, ist das Maschinen Learning auf dem
Gerät läuft. Tolles Konzept.

10/10 product with a 10/10 app!

Y’all have built an amazing product - cleaner than Apple photos imo and I can trust my photos are safe!

Not ready

It’s a promising start but this app/service is still light years from being ready for large libraries imported eg from Google Photos or Apple Photos. Eg after selecting some 200 pictures to add to a shared album the recently created album doesn’t show up in the destination list or the addition fails repeatedly with “something went wrong”.

Onboarding for a family member also suffered from sync issues — after sharing an album and seeing pictures it still took minutes before anything showed up in the “feed”.

And for people coming from Google the date handling of pictures where the importer can’t match the json sidecar is really unfortunate; expect about 1% of your pictures to end up with a wrong date (the date of the takeout request) and no other metadata.

Excelente

Pessoal, baixem sem medo.
Excelente aplicativo pra backup de fotos e vídeos e, além disso, é focado em cyber segurança, ou seja, uniu o útil ao agradável.

Wäre eine gute Alternative

Ich war endlich froh eine datenschutzfreundliche Alternative zum großen G oder A zu haben. Ich habe mich aber getäuscht. Mein hauptgrund für ente war, dass es eine Gesichtserkennung gibt. Die gibt es auch. Ich muss aber nahezu jedes einzelne Foto bestätigen, ob das auch wirklich Person xy ist. Dann kann man es auch gleich sein lassen. Schade..
