Is raspberry pi pretty easy to set up? Or if you were starting over would you go with something else? I have a windows laptop and an android phone, so that's the extent of what I'm familiar with so far. But Immich does look so promising!

One of these days I'll have the bandwidth to learn about self-hosting. It seems like there's some real benefits and cool stuff out there. For now, I have a toddler taking up most of said bandwidth as well as copious amounts of photo space 😅
These things have been on my mind recently too, about public photos in general. I recently learned that you can scrub metadata from photos by messaging them to yourself on Signal first, so I've started doing that for photos I share online. Otherwise I just try to avoid identifying information and ask myself if I really want this to be public for eternity.
Also make sure if you don't want to be identified, you're posting through an account that you use to remain anonymous. So don't reuse your username, have your personal email connected to the account, etc. Or post things that could be tied to you / your location using the same account.
Whoa... Your cat is basically identical to our gray girl. Who also hides in our bedroom to avoid everyone 90% of the day.
Once I bounced a check to our water company and they refused to take checks or credit cards from me for a YEAR as a punishment. It was a one-time accident after paying on time for around seven years. I literally had to drive my ass down there with cash. It's a small rural water service, not a big corporation - they chose to be complete assholes even after I explained the situation (we had a baby that month and forgot a monthly $ transfer in the chaos).
Same mistake probably cost us $120 in overdraft fees. Society financially punishes people who need money the most and rewards the people who have plenty. It's ridiculous.
