Collect photos/videos from multiple people on a trip

fredfred · Sep 3rd 2023

I was recently on a trip with a group of people. All of us had phones and and took photos and videos we would like to share with each other. One of the guys on the trip said "if someone can facilitate all photos and videos I can put together an album for us accompanied by a video of our collective experience".

I said I'll look into how to collect the stuff and supply it to him.

So.. how can I collect all videos/photos from the trip?

Some simple way anyone know of?

This is a one time collection and not a continuous upload of all photos on a phone and so on... phones were iPhone and Android probably of all makes and models.

Preferably no authentication (or something very simple), not teach savvy ppl...

If anyone know any good solutions please let me know. A container or cloud service, feel free.

Thank you!

Nextcloud or Seafile

Nextcloud is better supported here. Both run in docker.

Use Google Drive or Dropbox to create a shared folder and send the link to everyone. No authentication is needed—just set the folder permissions to "Anyone with the link can upload," and everyone can easily add their photos and videos.

Recently I was on a vacation organized by https://www.westgateresorts.com/vacation-packages/ in New York. If honestly it was gorgeous, I took some pictures as a souvenir to have for us that I want to put in the frame) I dreamed for so long to go there and here it was)

You can do the same with Nextcloud, with the advantage that you store the files. No one at Google or Dropbox will have access to your files.
