It is really disappointing, when you have a folder with content from over 5 y and want to fast navigate to the a special year / date....

Hello,
do we have some news here?

According to https://nextcloud.com/blog/the-new-standard-in-on-premises-team-collaboration-nextcloud-hub/ "Photos shows you a timeline of your photos. "

So I guess your assumptions of what this means do not match those of the nextcloud devs.

I would agree though that a timeline view needs a virtual structure of year, month (and day) in order to jump to a date in that timeline without having to scroll through all the previews.

Not sure though how the app should handle photos without any meta information about their creation date. If I remember correctly most other apps use the file's date in those cases.

Sorting ascending or descending is also still missing as of 18.0.3.
