S3 has many open implementations you can self host. Some are quite lean even. Unless you need really complex IAM stuff it's a solid and rather simple experience to run it.

This is a good point. I'd rather have something with the S3 option, so I can serve the pages from my house but the images from a speedier source.
Yeah but Immich provides a lot more features than just storage
Wouldn't it then be reasonable to focus on those many features, instead of storage? I would enjoy using with S3, as expanding S3 storage is easier than expanding the storage of a virtual machine: usually it happens automatically.
