A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Alternative to Google Photo Scan? (lemmy.one)

I'm looking to escape Google's clutches as much as possible. Switched to GrapheneOS several months ago. The one app I'm really struggling to replace is PhotoScan, which lets you scan physical photos (in my case, a lot of old family albums) and upload them to Google Photos.

I primarily use Ente for photos, and subscribe to a Nextcloud instance, but haven't been able to find any app that has the capability to do something like PhotoScan. The few apps I've had recommended have bad user reviews and/or an extremely expensive subscription model. I'm not opposed to paying for something that works, and I try to support FOSS as much as possible.

Any suggestions?
