How does Immich compare to something like PhotoPrism or Piwigo?

Well I think you have to distinguish between a messenger and other programms, because a messenger has a lot of sensitive data.

If they abuse their monopoly it sounds like the DMA should be applied.

AppImages run on nearly every distro. Why arw they not providing that instead of a .deb?

Also https://conduit.rs/

Not everyone is a developer and they closed issues on github so why bother?

There's also Netbird as an open source alternative to Tailscale. @damnthefilibuster@lemmy.world

This one? Because this is not official.

With dedicated NAS you mean a synology or something like that? Because they are not very affordable. Yeah I figured that so I didn't even ask for a discount.

This one right? Futo, Please don't attempt to create your own Open Source Definition

They should provide an app for other distros then!

Maybe they removed it from the accounts because of the recent push from modders to patch an offline mode.

We can hope for a fediverse alternative!

Appreciated, maybe I'll try it in the future.

The ink from these pens takes longer to dry, I don't want to wait until I can turn the sheet of paper around. And I have 20 of the same ones because they run out so quickly when you use only pens and I like how they feel in the hand.

Yes you definitely should. It's great that we have an open alternative to the classic Minecraft with easier modding!

Let's hope it stays like that!

I also thought about using it as a backup too, but a backup usually has way less reads and writes than a NAS?

What about some drives in a small form factor business PC (not the new mini PCs)? Too bad airflow to cool it?

First thank you for the detailed examples!

Alright, I would like a NAS and (separated) a server with some small services (pi-hole or adguard, jellyfin (getting the data from the NAS), and so on). I thought about running the small services with docker on a RPi 4 and the NAS on a refurbished business PC with SATA drives in the case (I checked ebay and there are mainboards with 4 SATA III connectors and PCI so I could even add more SATA connectors). In a second moment a backup server (maybe with borg) would be a good idea but I could also do manual backups with an external USB HDD for the time being. And I have a tight budget.

The community is dead, unfortunately.

I will not bother because issues are closed and pull requests rejected left and right from signal for years.

Sounds like a hacky way to do things, I don't think I'm comfortable with that.

Btw, are you going to add that option to Raccoon? I didn't try your app yet but I want to do so soon!

Thank you! I hope other Android apps will implement it too. But I'll pass on Voyager for now, it feels so weird having the iOS UI on an Android phone.

Which app are you using? I didn't find that option yet.

What is that if I may ask?

Thank you, I think I'll just wait for other Android apps to implement the feature then!

Amazing! Seems like I have to switch to Raccoon sooner than I thought! Thank you very much for your great work btw.

How does it compare to the banglejs 2 from espruino?

True but I have a lot of similar pens because I use mostly pens and I like this particular type a lot. And every time I empty one, which happens for me probably once a month it feels weird to throw it away just to grab the same one from the drawer instead of just filling it up.

This describes what I'd like to do. Budget is low and I don't have a lot of hardware laying around. For the capacity I don't know yet but for sure 6tb to start with. I'd like to try RAID (heard a lot, never tried it yet) and another backup (maybe something for the future).

This is roughly what I want to to with my system. A synology sounds nice but they are pricey and I'm not learning so much so I'd go another route if possible.

Maybe it's best if I just hook up some USB drives to my Pi and get my hands dirty with that. If the performance is not too bad (like you said).

Thank you very much! Can you elaborate on why m720/920 have a better extensibilty? And what would be a resonable data transfer rate for a DAS?

Are you refering to this as a thin client?

Thanks for the detailed writeup, I think I understood it properly now!

Crazy that you have to pay for PhotoPrism to have more users!

Maybe they add these features you want to Immich? Given that it's still in development.

I guess at this point we have to take what we get.

Yeah I wanted to selfhost photoprism soon but now I have to reconsider that.
