@programming.devThe only problem is that there's no way to make a recurring payment even if I wanted to, which would be more sustainable than one-time purchases.
Kind of, you can share individual albums so it is possible to share all but one. This may or may not be practical though depending on your album structure.
Another option is to share your entire library but archive the photos you don't want to be seen.
It would be good of there was an official feature for this but these are currently the two best options.
My only advice would be to go full NextCloud at first for simplicity instead of trying to integrate it with other services.
That being said, if later on you're looking for a way to store images I'd highly recommend Immich, I just finished setting up my own hosting setup a few days ago and it is gorgeous.
Here in Scotland tourists are always fascinated when we talk about the wild haggis running around.
I always take out those paper ads that are attached to the top of the seat if front and turn them around so I'm not staring at them for a 5 hour flight.
Oh yes oops! I'm not sure why I thought polybar ran on Wayland, I probably was thinking of yambar.
Not for polybar but you might like to look into SwayNotificationCenter, I use it as the notification daemon of my hyprland setup and it has all the previous notifications in a menu with a do-not-disturb mode. I use a keybind to open up the menu but you could add an icon to polybar that when clicked runs swaync-client -t
to toggle the menu.
