  • This is a pretty good approach! I love it

  • Mmm not sure, not a fan of open source.projects dependent on for-pay service. Not for the money itself, but what when/if the business model fails and the tools end up abandoned?

    The 'net is filled with forgotten open source project.

  • Thanks! There are a couple I didn't know about and now I need to test them!

  • Digital Film! Thanks for spotting that up.

  • Thank you! This look very promising! I will definitely try it

  • It's actually what i was looking for... I need to understand if it's solid enough for long term usage and how to mix that with my existing photo collection, but it really seems that this feature will cut out the need to manually download & move the photos from Immich to PiGallery2...

  • Its a law where I live...

  • I moved away from nextcloud after many years, it was time to explore new stuff I guess.

    I never used memories before anyway

  • I don't have a sinology, and i dont want to use proprietary stuff... so i never looked into it

  • I see this is something different from external libraries (to which applies my other comment). It doesn't seems to be working for existing external libraries but only for new uploaded files? I will need to check this out more in deep. thanks.

  • The scripts approach might be a good solution as well, but i tend to bake my solutions a bit too much already...

  • I have not setup authelia or similar, i am using proxy auth linked to PAM to simulate SSO. I might end up using authelia or similar in the future to solve this specific issue indeed.

  • No it doesnt. It only support ready photos from folders, then the original structure is lost inside Immich, you cannot even see the folders only the big "timeline". All albums (=folders) disappear in immich, It's useless for my use case.

  • Using dokuwiki, just cut the cheese for me.

    Its "old" because it uses php, but its quite solid and doesn't need a database, so all plus to me.

    There are cool and modern looking themes too.

  • Takes 1 minute to write a non systemd startup script, come on.

    I understand systemd "spoiled" people, but not having a potentially insecure always running daemon for no purpose at all (docker) beat the alternative for me.

  • Definitely podman + podman compose.

    Its fully open source (docker isn't) and its secure by design (security has been added to docker as an after fought).

    Also podman is rootless by design, docker takes a bit of effort to run root less.

  • Gentoo. While a bit unusual, it's perfect for the job.

    Check my wiki at https://wiki.gardiol.org where I document my Gentoo selfhost experience.

  • How is your librephoto experience so far?

  • Indeed I am a quite proficient sysadmin for my home server, while not a professional one.

    I didn't consider a docker file as instructions for bare metal install, thanks for the suggestion. I am currently using podman with immich because its release cycles are too fast for me to catch up otherwise.

    I am thinking to experiment with something different from immich because, while its a great tool, it's "just" (no pun intended) a backup solution for mobile devices and I need something more than that.

    I was considering https://damselfly.info/ which looks more like the workflow I am looking to implement.

  • It is true that a project doesn't need to release binaries. But either those or the instructions on how to build from sources I think are somewhat expected.

    Said so, I am hosting immich on docker because, specially on such fast evolving and kind of "beta" software its by far the fastest way.
