I have it and immich set up. Nextcloud memories is fine, but for me the auto upload would randomly stop at some points. Overall ux with immich is better, but memories gets the job done.
I don’t use Memories, but yes, uploading photos with FolderSync to Nextcloud (via WebDAV) does add them to the Nextcloud database. They show up as new photos in the recent activities list.

I use FolderSync to push my photos to Nextcloud. Much more reliable than their app
Does that automatically add it to the database or do you have a scan schedule?
I think Memories schedules its scan with the normal cron job for Nextcloud
