The difference is pretty big, while they do the same thing, they do it very differently. Immich just stores all the images in plain on the file system, all the processing is done on server side, you can connect an external library and if your Immich DB or installation becomes corrupted or breaks and there is no more support for Immich you just take the photos folder and move on. But the admin and everyone who's access to the folder can see all the photos of everyone, so privacy is not that great, but administration is easier and recovery in case of an issue is easy. Ente (FunFact: Ente is German for Duck) is all about privacy. The photos are all encrypted on the server and only the client side can decrypt/see the photos. This also means that the client side needs to do all the processing, but therefore the server can be very low spec (although this doesn't matter in our case, because Hexos needs to run in the first place, so HW specs is not really a concern in any way) and it needs S3 storage and requires more setup an administration. However if your Ente DB becomes corrupted or the Ente app breaks or the Ente dev stops and your app becomes unusable, you lose all your photos, because you cannot access it any other way. But until that happens only your client side device can access the photos and no-one else can.

Cloudflare is awesome, and I definitely want to see native support for Tunnels. It is fairly simple for a technical person to setup but it would be nice to have a wrapper within HexOS for like a one-click setup. Basically you buy a domain in Cloudflare, link your account to HexOS and it will perform the necessary config to setup the tunnel, route application services to your domain, and apply ACLs based on what you already have in HexOS. Although, you do need a domain to use Cloudflare Zero Trust. Tailscale is another option, and does not require a domain to use. As of right now the docker app already runs great. I imagine they could add a simple wizard—the current setup process has a lot of options but only requires an auth key to be set for it to work.
