Photo export for sharing

[blue-kaleidoscope]

Hello friendly immich people,

I hope this is not a double request, at least I couldn't find anything similar in the discussions: I was wondering whether Immich supports an image export feature similar to Lightroom (but less complex) which allows:

• Download one or multiple images (as today) but in a different format
• In a different size.

The use case behind: Yesterday I wanted to send a friend some ~20 pictures via mail. I downloaded the selection via my immich instance. As these were iPhone photos I ended up with 50 MB of HEIF format photos which I needed to convert to jpeg with a lower resolution so that they fitted into the mail.

Is something like that planned?

Many thanks,
Oli

Immich doesn't currently have any way to export files in different images. Would just a normal shared album link work for what you need?

Not really as I do not want to expose my instance to the evil internetz. ^^

That would indeed be a great feature as I normally upload photos from Lightroom and they are done with a DSLR.

Would it be possible to add a download option for the already created thumbnails? These are smaller file size and perfect to quickly send via e.g. WhatsApp.

Many thanks!
