Nextcloud is good at general cloud features. It's not specialized in photo management. If you're storing memes or cell phone pictures it's fine, but if you use an actual camera that uses a RAW format, you're much better off using Immich.

If you're only using nextdoor for fine sync, seafile or synching will be vastly superior

That is probably true, however, I personally use it to share with others who are not part of my network, calendar integration, password database access across many devices, rsync backups across *many devices, document editing via Collabora and probably other things I'm not thinking about at the moment. I don't have the performance issues that others note, but I took all of the performance improvement steps noted in the documentation: have bare metal well-resourced db hosts (for multiple services), dedicated redis cache, properly configured php-fpm, etc.

Humm OK but I think just for photo saving and showing I would be okay for me

I use nextcloud and immich in read only mode on top. Works like a charm. I sync my phone over weebdav every night.
