Wasn’t it stable like a month ago?
Checking out the road map, nothings changed in a hot second. I think they’re just trying to spread the word about it in general
Yes
What does the $100 server key unlock (besides “supporter status”), since features aren’t paywalled?
Nothing. Just helps pay for development.
Oh, so… 100% worth every penny, then. Finally, a software cost with actual benefits.
Edit. It sounds sarcastic, but I’m being serious.
As we’re committed not to add paywalls, this purchase will not grant you any additional features in Immich. We rely on users like you to support Immich’s ongoing development.
I read that. (I literally mentioned features not being paywalled in the original comment.)
If the key doesn’t unlock features, what does it unlock?
Do you get a little thank you message from the devs when you enter it in? Does it add a “Supporter” tag next to your name on the app settings?
The practice exists in both software and games of adding paid cosmetics (e.g. Discord or Deep Rock Galactic) that don’t change the core featureset but allow users to pay more to support the developers, so I think it’s a valid question.
You get a badge at the bottom left showing you’re a supporter.
Nothing. Just helps pay for development.
Bragging rights and improved sleeping ability from the knowledge that the devs are being supported.
The serious answer is it’s often easier for people in a company to buy a license key than it is for them to arrange a donation to the devs. So this is an easy way to make small donations.
Good vibes only
It’s a donation that is deceptively framed in my opinion, bit of a dark pattern, but the product is fully open source so most give it a pass.
does immich have an option to automatically delete older, backed-up pics from devices in order to free up space and not worry about running out disk space on smartphone?
I tried to search the docs and it seems it’s missing
it’s wip, they are iterating it
i think they added it as beta, then reverted, then now is being reworked
I’ve not seen that option, but I use syncthing instead of the phone application to sync my photos to a specific folder on my NAS which is then an external library for Immich.
TBH, I don’t want anything deleting anything automatically.
I’ll often delete newer pictures of temporary stuff but keep older pictures of my frinds & family, so, that’s not a feature I’d see any value in. It tends to just make me lazy and build up GBs of junk photos on my NAS (and backups…)
That sounds like a great solution to my current frustration that the autobackup feature of Immich on iOS is so opaque. It only works when the app is open and even then oftentimes you’re just staring at the backup screen while seemingly nothing is happening, despite Immich’s backlog of thousands of photos still needing to be uploaded.
No but there is a semi work around.
When using the app if you select all images one of your options will be delete from device when you click on that it will say hey some of these might not be backed up and one of your option is to only delete the things that have been backed up. It’s not automatic but it is a way you can kind of just Mass do it to everything
Not yet
that makes one of us
It still doesn’t do chunked uploads, right? For who has a low memory proxy or uses cloudflare
Still container-dependent?
Containers are the best, so probably
I’m running it bare metal on my NAS.
No problems, plus I don’t have to do extra container stuff.
Dude containers are often easier than running the underlying programs.
Not arguing with you, it’s just a choice.
The question was whether Immich had to be executed from within a container system… and it doesn’t have to.
“not running in a container” is not “running on bare metal”. It’s just running outside a container.
I guess that’s true.
I’m running it outside of a container and outside a VM… as there’s no abstraction layer on top of the underlying OS. Which I guess is inside the bare metal.
So, Yep.
“Bare metal” has traditionally meant without any os either. Your code executes directly on hardware and has direct control over everything. Like a micro controller.
Code in a container executes on the hardware in exactly my the same way as code not running in a container - with the os as an intermediary.
