I'm fighting this right now on my own domain. Google marked my family Immich instance as dangerous, essentially blocking access from Chrome to all services hosted on the same domain.

I know that I can bypass the warning, but the photo album I sent to my mother-in-law is now effectively inaccessible.

Just in case you're not sure how to deal with it, you need to request a review via the Google Search Console. You'll need a Google account and you have to verify ownership of the domain via DNS (if you want to appeal the whole domain). After that, you can log into the Google Search Console and you can find "Security Issues" under the "Security & Manual Actions" section.

That area will show you the exact URLs that got you put on the block list. You can request a review from there. They'll send you an email after they review the block.

Hopefully that'll save you from trying to hunt down non-existent malware on a half dozen self-hosted services like I ended up doing.

It's a bit ironic that a user installing immich to escape Google's grip ends up having to create again a Google account to be able to remove their Google account.

Indeed. Thankfully, this isn't the first time Google has caused an issue like this, so I'm familiar with the appeal process.
