While it does have some kinks it's surprisingly good and has the features you are looking for in a locally hosted/publicly available option. You do have to buy one of their NAS's however.
I have moved over to this partly for privacy and partly due to cost (I produce way too many photos per year to store them economically at Google)
[1] fyi this is the reasonably 'new' instantiation as linked to here, they EOL'd the very old, different app of the same name from their v old NAS's. Adding that here in case anyone has or buys an old NAS, you may get the old version of the app - I think you need a NAS with a decent processor to perform the face detection etc.
The biggest problem I've faced with their app suite is it seems to make my disks spin 24/7, constantly seeking even if there is zero external activity. It wouldn't be such a big problem if I didn't live in a small apartment and have to listen to them seek all night. Other people have reported the issue, but it doesn't seem like they plan on addressing it.
I think it only does this until the catalogue has been indexed, depending on what options are enabled. For instance, if face matching is enabled then it has to process all of the pictures for faces and group them.
