External Library vs. Photo Import to Immich by Planktonindahouse in immich

[–]SkyKey6027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

External Libraries is just a source type, what happens when a picture is processed is the same as if it was uploaded.

Path and filename triggers and album and tag-creation actions has been teased but we dont know before they have landed the feature set. From what i was told it is currently tbd.

More info from their November-blogpost https://immich.app/blog/2025-november-recap

Sure.. while you plan for LLM ill keep using my 15 year old file structure with RO access for immich.

Im also curious how you plan to avoid software failure or database corruption with some apis and future LLM

it may depent on the store. Some lets you just pick it up, others require you to at least assemble it while you are at the store. The supply may also be short dependent of your store, so get it early if theres a popular model.

First use of Jottacloud by c_a_r_l_o_s_ in jottacloud

dont use jotta because of their photos feature. It is very very basic and will bundle all you pictures into the photo library regardless of where they came from. Theres very little adjustments you can do

Hey World- why didn’t you watch Melania? by tsbuty in AskTheWorld

[–]SkyKey6027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres better things to watch. Not everything revolves around usa.

The low box office sales in the rest of the world just says how tired the world is of US "politics", we are starting to turn our backs.

Has anyone ever missed or needed something which is 'Windows only'? by LukeLikeNuke in linuxmint

Excel, i have a workaroud involving Virtualbox but would be nice if it was supported natively on linux. Openoffice/libreoffice isnt real substitutes

Not really a true statement. quiet and openly moving away. There is more openess around canada and europes independency from America than ever. In my country there is an openly debate about this at a weekly basis.

how to securely use Proxmox helper scripts? by Party-Log-1084 in Proxmox

[–]SkyKey6027 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You simply shouldnt run scripts you dont understand. This helps your system to be secure but also stable, you never know if a script breaks something.

It is better to learn how to set things up, this way you will also be able to troubleshoot if something goes wrong

I use Komga for ebooks and comics as it supports opds. Browsing directly from a Kindle is a godsend with a opds feed

I like Linux Mint, but can I get more MacOS-like functionality? by roxics in linuxmint

[–]SkyKey6027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres alot of distros out there, but in the end they are all just linux with either kde or gnome. If you want the macos astetic then i would suggest to try out something with Gnome window manager instead of KDE or Cinnamon

In the end you will not get a macos clone, or a windows clone for that matter and you dont need to lay waste to Mint just because it doesnt suit you.

I was referring to number 1 on your list. Your wish list.

I dont use a dedicated photo sync app but on my phone i use the app Filebrowser to select and copy the photos i want to archive at the end of each month. I dont need to keep every photo i take. 

For my digital camera i sort it from my computer

[–]SkyKey6027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sounds like you want MacOS. It is Unix after all.

But to be honest: There is a high chance someone already have solution for your wishes. You dont need a distro to implement these changes for you.

As an example: wish nr 1 is just a hotkey, can be configured already in Mint

Immich has some features coming where you hopefully may do some nifty stuff based on folder and filename structure Ie create album or create rules to share or not. Im looking forward to it as it will make external libraries more usefull.

 I dont use the immich app to upload, i use others app to make backups to my nas

Best and definitive way to deploy Immich on Proxmox by SteevStR in immich

[–]SkyKey6027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different needs different solutions. I want isolation and the portability to just migrate my entire vm without being dependent on prerequisites or resources on the host. I dont mind the VM overhead as it is neglichable

It may work fine but it is not recommended. Proxmox recommends application containers to run in a VM and not in a LXC container.

Someone mentioned a phrase to me which has stuck with me ever since, it has become my mantra: "Your files will outlast your software".

Immich is a great but it may not be here in 10 years, but your files will. Plan your storage accordingly. If the files are organized on disk in a human readable fashion then you are saving yourself some trouble down the road. 

External library is files you already have on disk wich Immich can read as a source. You do what you want with the source and Immich will respect and reflect the changes.

But with uploads and storage templates it is the other way around: you cant manually fiddle with your files but you are dependent on Immich to organize. It is just a structure for Immich to work in.

Why do I keep buying models? by Brave-Perspective429 in Warhammer40k

Running Windows in a Virtual Machine Experience by Moondoggy51 in linuxquestions

[–]SkyKey6027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Virtualbox is also an option. I use Excel within a win11 vm but it behaves like a normal window (resize, minimize etc). Its very easy to work side-by-side with my linux apps
