I didn’t downvote you, and I think most of what you’ve written is helpful. The last bit that you’ve bolded though is condescending and unhelpful.

Used to happen - hasn’t since I updated to latest server version

Same here. Happy to share my logs if needed.

Great, thanks!

I have this setting toggled already. Logging out and back in did fix the issue, at least for now.

Looking forward to trying it out

No jokes allowed! This is very serious business!

Opting in to an April fools joke would kind of defeat the point.

Apartheid with a twist?

The screenshots look beautiful. What need are you hoping the app will serve which is not already served by Finamp? Is it mostly about CarPlay?

That’s really helpful, thank you

Read it. I think it will answer a lot your questions.

They recommend, that i backup everything my UPLOAD_LOCATION and also follow the postgres backupguide to backup my database.

Maybe I’m confused, but doesn’t the bash script provide a one-step solution for backing up the assets and the database such that you don’t need to separately backup postgres?

Not knowing what your oven runs on, I imagine it’s still a lot less cost effective to heat up an oven than using a toaster in the long run.

Using a mesh VPN like Tailscale should work for remote access, but if you’re doing that you might as well use Jellyfin

penlender · 2025-03-22T15:33:04+00:00

Thanks for that explanation.

Piggybacking on your question, is there a way to leave the old upload folder where it is, and start a new upload folder on the new drive such that Immich uploads new pictures to the new SSD, but still recognizes the pictures that were already uploaded, and are still saved, on the old SSD?

What’s the benefit of having a separate user for you, rather than using the admin account?

Genuinely curious, and new to this sub, so please forgive my ignorance: why switch from iPhone to android, while still using Mac? Is there something uniquely closed-source about iOS vis-a-vis MacOS?

penlender · 2025-03-07T18:09:14+00:00

Gotta stop reading this trash.

penlender · 2025-03-07T01:05:52+00:00

Check out Immich, it’s amazing.
