How close does the Immich mobile app feel to Google Photos on StackPilot?

Remarkably close — timeline scrubbing, map view, memories ("On this day"), partner sharing, and background uploads look and feel native.

Can I run Nextcloud or Syncthing alongside Immich on the same 1TB VPS on StackPilot?

Yes! Many makers dedicate 750GB to Immich photos and 250GB to Nextcloud/Syncthing PDFs and project archives on one $6/mo slice.

Can I scale beyond 1TB later without reinstalling on StackPilot storage blueprints?

Yes — InterServer lets you expand Storage VPS slices online all the way up to 20TB.
