From the maker
I was frustrated with photo sharing sites. Apple's iCloud shared albums take 20+ seconds to load, and everything else comes with ads, cumbersome UIs, or social media distractions. I just want to share photos with friends and family: fast, mobile-friendly, distraction-free. So I built DD Photos.
From the website
Beautiful self-hosted static photo galleries. No subscriptions, no lock-in, deploys in minutes. - dougdonohoe/ddphotos
