Comment (by robe):
Update I have ldap working, but still some kinks to work out.
You should be able to log in https://photo.osgeo.org using the email
address you have registered with your osgeo account.
The issues uncovered, thanks Brian Hamlin for testing 
1) Admin mode, seems to require another password, I think it's probably an
outstanding ldap issue, cause LDAP is pretty new feature on pixelfed
2) Mail is not sending
3) When you like a post or follow someone, that doesn't seem to work

Yah I'm a bit concerned about that too and the fact it has not reached
1.0, but does have over 100 contributors which looks promising, and jsanz
has used it and liked it.
Nextcloud is still on the table -- the most mature of all (and we have
already running with LDAP/Postgres etc), but I feel it does too much so
you'd get lost trying to find the photos.
https://github.com/LycheeOrg/Lychee - This one looks good, sports PHP 8,
supports PostgreSQL.
It uses a lot of the same dependencies as pixelfed (and is Laravel based
just like pixelfed), so if pixelfed doesn't pan out, Lychee would be my
next bet, since I can easily reuse all the setup I did for pixelfed. It
however doesn't seem to have LDAP support, but since it's laravel based, I
can probably inject LDAP in there. The work pixelfed did for LDAP was
mostly just requiring the laravel ldap plugin and still required some
manual change of code to work.
https://github.com/LibrePhotos/librephotos looks good - has some
compelling features I don't see in the others, supports PostgreSQL, offers
a docker container. Cons: Seems to lack LDAP support and it too appears to
be a 1 man show.
https://github.com/Piwigo/Piwigo -things I don't like about it: lacks LDAP
support, is MySQL based, feels kind of old given they are focussed on PHP
5 and 7 with not even a mention of 7.3 or 7.4
on the plus not a one man show and has been around for a while.
