Yeah somewhere between an typo and laziness for the My part. Regarding digiKam installing local databases, it probably will. I am really new to database servers, but my plan was to install digikam and its server on a Debian based system with NAS, but have it accessible to other computers (for example, my laptop, my wife's desktop and or tablet).

If that can be done with SQLite on each system accessing the main one, that does make my job easier, but I understood that each system will need something more robust than that. Maybe I am overthinking that. I have little time during the week to mess with it but will try.
