through. If she can save the website to a home screen icon this seems like an acceptable level of complexity or novelty to impose on my elders

The end user experience I am looking for is basically a barely protected maybe with a password but not crawled gallery of photos, with a stretch goal of allowing comments. As a input user experience I want to shuffle the files into a folder and have it automatically synced with the instance of whatever it is I'm running. Basically I take a photo and put it in the folder on my device, she can view it at a hyperlink with something easy to click

chances are, whatever you do, you'll need her to download and use a new/different app. if that's ok, then yeah she can use a fediverse client to look at a Pixelfed account, but she could also use a feed/social reader to look at a (possibly protected or unlisted) feed on your site, or other options

I really like the idea of controlling my own service more and making sharing the photos to be a curated thing rather than some link to a Google photos album or something that uses any inbuilt cloud sharing feature

So like there are differentiations here but basically as a user I want to figure out how to share photos to my mother in law who uses Instagram in a way that will be familiar and usable to her

I'm thrown off because I'm pretty sure Pixelfed is a clone thing you can run yourself, and run privately

oh, i consider there to be a pretty big difference between broadcasting a stream of photos like instagram vs curating albums and sharing with individual people. "share albums" sounds like the latter to me which threw me off.

quite frankly has resulted in probably more material support in practical terms. So as a user, either if it's with Pixelfed, or a self hosted service like Jellyfin, I want to enable the ability to easily share photos and control it.

(remembers not to utter any keywords that might indicate dev content). Basically my mother in law loves my Instagram content, it's really silly but it's actually been amazing and it's a reason I still use that service because it's the easiest way to update her on our life at her level and how often older people use apps. Every few days or week or two I post a photo of my spouse and I and she loves it and feels a connection to our lives that
