FOSS Friday: Immich

Move over Google Photos and Apple iPhoto, there's a viable self hosting solution in town and it's called Immich.

I've been using Immich for a while. It's fairly easy to setup, if you have a home server or use one of the "Bitcoin node OSes". I use the docker container version and it works well.

If you're looking to ditch Google and Apple for your photos and videos, please remember that storage devices have a 100% failure rate. You need to have good backups. And you need to test them.

I backup my data locally at home and then I remote backup to my parent's house. It's my own private cloud. 🤣

Ooh i just use nextcloud for this but i like this.

Also +1 for foss friday.

I used Netcloud for a long while, but this has a lot of nice photo enhancements besides being just a dumb pipe.

obviously i'm a bit of a fanboy but i've been kind of looking for a "lighter weight" ways of doing things.

i feel like i have been a fight in my instance a lot recently.
