LOL. I went through all the hassle of setting up #immich only to find out it can't even rotate uploaded pictures using the web UI, as far as I can see?

@neil The only downside i see to Immich is that if you or your partnet want to get all the pictures back in their original DCIM/date-time.jpg file structure, you can't easily (that i know of?).

Otherwise it's very neat and very cool.

Also, don't forget to back up #Immich! (database + files)

New blogpost: "My initial thoughts about Immich, a self-hosted photo gallery"

Basically, docker aside, all rather positive!

I need to monitor whether automatic uploading of photos from GrapheneOS / Android, and from iOS, works, but fingers crossed.

If you feel your #homelab server is under-utilized, just install #immich and upload your entire picture and video collection and bob's your uncle!

As I find time to finish uploading the photos, all 4,000+ will be here on a @emeraldonion self-hosted #Immich server:

Happy third Sunday in Advent! 🕯️

For the last... 5 years (or so), I tried multiple different personal photo and video management services and have now landed at Immich.

I think it's really the best alternative I could find.

And then, co-incidentally because it's the 1st of December, here's Episode #1 -- installing and looking at #immich

Nach dem initialen Backup via #Proxmox Backup Server dauern die folgenden Backups der #OpenCloud VM mit ihren derzeit 1,6 TB nur Sekunden.

Das Backup des #Immich Containers mit ebenfalls 1,6 TB dauert immer Stunden.

Woran könnte das liegen?

Sembra che Google Safe Browsing sia stato sviluppato senza considerare il software open source o self-hosted. Molti progetti popolari hanno riscontrato problemi simili, come:
- #Jellyfin: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/issues/4076
- #YunoHost: https://forum.yunohost.org/t/google-flags-my-sites-as-dangerous-deceptive-site-ahead/20361

@informatica

It seems to be quite convenient that google flags immich.app site as dangerous, since immich is an environment in which you can host your own photographs in a safe manner without Google.

My digital independence roadmap for the year ahead:

Phase 1: liberate my music and movie libraries with #Jellyfin (I just installed it YAY)

Phase 2: liberate my audiobook collection with #AudioBookshelf

Phase 3: liberate my photo and video libraries with #Immich / stop paying for iCloud

Phase 4: jailbreak my Kindle and liberate my eBook collection

Looks like I will be busy through the end of 2026 😅​

Once you start #selfhosting, there is no way back 💪​

I use it as a Google Photo alternative, it’s great.
