    Should I not be able to use the software if I’m donating?

    You should be able to use it fully regardless of whether you’re donating.

    I’m not going to pay for the mere possibility of it being useful at some undetermined point in the future.

    That’s fine, by definition, a donation means you’re not paying for anything.

    Immich has demonstrated it has no intention of ever becoming a useful project

    I take it you haven’t been in the self-hosted photo space long. Even despite their alpha status and frequent breaking of backwards compatibility, it’s still the best experience I’ve had (comparing to Plex, Nextcloud, and Photoprism). But if you can find something better, I’m all ears.
