Chosing the right photo app for my family

So, Immich vs Ente, this is my last piece of the selfhosted puzzle. Please help me make an informed decision:

Immich

on the plus side, it seems to have more features and it has a gazillion integrations with other selfhosted software. Downside: breaking changes are fairly common AFAIK.

Ente

looks like the opposite, more mature, scoped and less integrated.

Am I reading this right? Am I missing something?

Edit: Thanks everyone, I'm going with immich!

Right now, the latest update doesn't run in my otherwise until now perfectly working environment. It's frustrating because there's no easy way to downgrade it in my setup.

    Don't forget to change the database. There were breaking changes there as they moved to a different version in 3.0 which causes error loops.

    All of my stuff luckily moved seamlessly without having to restore a backup.

    Yeah, it's going the be a whole ordeal. I will have to block an afternoon for the migration. Definitely not a "never breaks anymore" scenario. Everything can be broken, there's no perfectly stable software.
