OK #Immich users, how are you handling backing up photos/videos from your desktop?

I'd like to back up my b-roll directories using Immich and without a desktop sync application, that's a bit convoluted.

@vkc

I am using immich-go:

My initial thoughts about Immich, a self-hosted photo gallery

Background I am looking to move away from Nextcloud (another blogpost at another time), and one of the things that I wanted to replace was a tool for automatically uploading photos from my phone (Graphene OS) and Sandra’s phone (an iPhone).

@neil @vkc slightly off topic: reading this, I'm eagerly waiting for the nextcloud post. I use it for photos as well (plus other things), but I'm annoyed by its slow speed on a pi 4, and the bugginess of the android app, which often forgets to upload a photo or 2, to the extent that I have a WebDAV app configured to check on it every night and fix issues up when needed. Immich is on the radar at some point, but I've taken to using NC memories and have albums I would need to migrate 😞

@PierricD @vkc

I have one more thing to move, and then I should be free of Nextcloud (although I will keep it running for a while, in case something in my new approach does not work out).

Let's see...

@neil oh great write-up! I'm also struggling with https over nginx, I have that on my to-do for sometime next week. I'd like to have that sorted well before I make a video about it later this year.

@vkc

I am sure that you'll get it sorted in no time at all, but if I can help in any way, please do just drop me a message.
