[Feature] Deduplicate foto and select on most albums

[bruvv]

I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

• Yes

(I did find this one: #10665 but that is a huge feature request, do you (dev) want me to close this one and post it there?)

The feature

To show what I mean straight away:

This is indeed a duplicate but I would like that immich selects the one that has the most album entries.

I know that at the moment it checks this:

1. Image size in bytes
2. Count of EXIF data

This is pretty good but will be create that (as can be seen in the screenshot) that also we check if the photo is in albums. Since this is the exact picture (only a few different amount of bytes) i want the one that my iphone synced to immich not the one i did manually. Is it possible to also include how many albums the photo is included in? That way I can clean my library much quicker!

Thanks @bo0tzz but that is a bit different, i want to change the deduplication information (not add extra data or change anything in the views) just make immich select the default photo that has the most album entries

Then maybe #10665?

That is what I added to my ticket that I was not sure if that is duplication. What do you think @bo0tzz ?
