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. 🤣

PhotoPrism is a good solution too. I really like Immich because it uses tenorflow to tag images and reminds me of Google Photos.

the tenorflow is the part that impressed me the most about the demo.

not perfect, but text searching for objects or places actually returned some pretty close images id expect to see. very neat for a self hosted option.
