I understand why some would do this. It’s definitely a more secure setup, but I highly doubt “most”. I like having passwords on my work laptop. I couldn’t sync there with a VPN, for example. My wife, kids and parents aren’t going to run VPNs on their phones, etc.

Isn’t that there point though? Remote synchronizing?

I have a 2013 MacBook running Ubuntu. No wifi drivers so I bought an Ethernet single off of eBay for $10. Runs immich pretty well.

What are you using for a reverse proxy? There’s some nginx websocket settings I had to do before things worked properly. I use cloudflare, but just for the DNS/cdn stuff, not their zero trust things.

server {
  server_name my.domain.com;
  client_max_body_size 2048M;

  location / {
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
    proxy_pass http://10.10.10.30:13378/;  # My Wireguard Tunnel up to the VPS
    # proxy_cache_bypass  $http_upgrade; # This was added by Certbot
    # WebSocket support
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
  }

    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot

}
server {
    if ($host = my.domain.com) {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbot

  listen 80;
  listen [::]:80;

  server_name my.domain.com;
    return 404; # managed by Certbot
}

I don’t disagree with you, but for a single server hosting multiple projects with differing system dependencies, docker is amazing. I’ve come around to using it for this practical reason.

Using docker over direct installation always feels like an unnecessary interface layer that just complicates things and introduces points of failure.

This feels 1000% like a chatgpt prompt copy and pasted into a webpage.

Why build one when you can build two at twice the price!

Seriously though, the cost was largely in the preparation. At some point you want to get more out of all that work. Yes, it was expensive for each actual launch. I wonder what the cost of stopping at the first one would have been. I’m WAGing that half the cost was getting there the first time. The other half was 5 more. That would be an interesting stat to know.

I just deal with snap and don’t use it unless I have to. The pro thing is kind of stupid. I have 6 computers and vms on pro. There is no actual check preventing it from working. They have some bug where it appears like your have double the computers checking in sometimes. So when I had 5, it’d show 10 sometimes. So now it just shows 6 or 12.

Everything works fine. I’m ignoring it for now.

Someday I’ll switch, but until that day, I’m chillin’.

People don’t like Ubuntu because they’re(Ubuntu) trying to make money with it. For end users, it’s can be a non issue because “pro” is free for 5 computers. But seeing the paywall for some is really off putting to some (myself included).

Snap really sucks and is Ubuntu’s attempt at a private garden. I hate it so much.

But yet I still use Ubuntu because it works, and if it doesn’t work there’s a post somewhere with details on how to fix it.

I’ve been using Linux off and on since Red Hat 5.2 ish era. I can handle the tech geek stuff. I just don’t want to.

I think it’s that it feels like someone has an agenda and this is posted over and over and over again.

There’s always a few quick responses of “oh I didn’t know that” followed by outage posts slightly later. Same pattern, every time.

It feels very manufactured to me. On one hand, I do understand the core complaint, but I don’t understand the outage. It’s outsized to what this is, so it feels fake.

I’ll second actual budget!

It’s like Mint with no ads and data privacy. There are other budgeting tools that can be better, but if you’re just after tracking and less about expense planning, this works well. Also compares well to YNAB with similar configuration options there if you go that route.

Nice, thanks for sharing. Do you happen to know if it can connect to multiple backends?

This is the way

Faster batching with better upload duplicate detection and it can preserve your Google photo sets (I didn’t use those though)

I just clicked download on 3 at a time until I was done. Could it be automated? Sure. But clicking 3 at a time is way faster than figuring it out.

I HIGHLY recommend immich-go if you haven’t found it yet: https://github.com/simulot/immich-go

Enjoy immich!! Great self hosting project.

The Google TV boxes (onn) from Walmart are a solid option. $49 for the Pro is an excellent price for the hardware.

I’m doing the archive tier which is cheaper than B2

I really wanted sia to take off. I wouldn’t trust it yet though.

Don’t use storj. I used to recommend them, but they have instituted a $5 minimum charge to have an account. The tl;dr is that they are interested in B2B, not individuals.

I’ve moved over to Tigris.

Here’s a follow up to the drama: https://forum.storj.io/t/a-follow-up-on-the-new-minimum-usage-fee-and-a-request-for-feedback/30089

Hit up the /r/storj for more drama if you dare to look at Reddit again :puke:

Look into storj and tardigrade. It’s a crypto thing, but don’t get scared. You back up to S3 compatible endpoints and it’s super cheap (and pay with USD credit card)
