The thing is that they only need to release the source code to a user of their installer. Also, perhaps they got a special exception from the original author like dynamically linked Linux drivers.

I also really wonder, they say face recognition and ML categorization happen on the edge. I guess this would drain the battery quite a lot doing it for the 800 GB and it will take forever.

I have around 800 GB of photos from me, my dad and my fiance. That would be $ 20 a month. Ok, still not bad, I don’t think I could get it much cheaper on a VPS.

For now what I’m doing is running https://immich.app on my laptop at home with a connected external USB drive. It’s not e2e encrypted, just with ssl on https. But other than that it seems to have similar functionality.

Ah I was searching wrong, now that you mention it I found a very simila.r one !stick@sh.itjust.works

Then I guess it’s better to delete it to nog fragment it in unecessarily.

Where?

I’m using https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/met/

That would be a really cool addition to immich

I’d like to replace GitHub with something self hosted but I’d still like other people to be able to fork and especially do pull requests. Because everyone already has a GitHub account it’s easy for them to do that. I wish there was some small software which would be easy to install and update and it would be connected to for example ActivityPub to be able to do pull requests. I’m not so keen on making everyone who wants to create a Issue or a Pull Request to make a seperate account on my own website, nobody will do that.

I never watch the same movie/TV show more than once, so I don’t see a point in hording this data. So for me the UX of streaming is most of the time preferrable than having a physical media which I need to carry to the new appartment every time I move.

This is different with music, where I listen to the same Albums hundrets of times. There I can deal with vinyl and many files on my computer.

But Netflix never let me buy a movie or TV show. They just sell me access to their library for a limited time.

I bought some music from Apple, DRM free and I downloaded it and have it on my own hard drive, and share it between all my devices.

Apple also sells you access to their library for a limited time like Netflix, but then you’re not buying the songs, you’re buying access to them for a limited time.

I’m just confused about why people are so mad about it. In other cases where you rent space to put physical things you own so you can still access them later this happens too. Let’s get into an example, and you guys tell me if I’m misunderstanding something:

If you have a car and have to change between summer and winter tires and you don’t have space at home to store the winter tires during the summer, you can go to a tire-hotel and they will 1. Sell you new tires, 2. switch your tires - a service you pay for - and 3. store the tires for you until next winter - a service you pay for too. Once the company goes out of business (or they focus on a different business) they tell you to get your tires or they will be discarded if you don’t. So you have to get them from them and you stop paying for the storage.

Isn’t it the same with the movies you buy and store at a place where you then rent storage to keep them there? As long as they allow you to download your purchases I see no difference. You can’t make someone else to keep working the same job until the heat death of the universe.

So I guess that would make it more resilient agains Nintendos efforts to destroy all emulators?

Haha, interesting, for me it was the exact opposite, I started with Baikal but it was too weird and I couldn’t get it up and running quickly enough and then I think I was not able to share my calendar with my partner or something, so I switched to Radicale.

Yeah it’s a pitty. For Linux I started writing https://github.com/jeena/jnotes but it will still take a lot of time before it’s usable.

In the end it’s just another devise. But we are not changing the same document at the same time, that would lead to many sync conflicts I imagine. For that some special protocol for concurent Editing would be better.

Calendar, and addressbook actively. File sharing only seldom.

Yeah, I also selfhosted it for years myself. But I was adding more and more services to my server and it became clear that if I would want to keep Nextcloud I’d need a server with more CPU and RAM because when Nextcloud was running it would after half a day deadlock the server with a load of 120 so I had to hard reboot it twice a day.

After replacing it with radicale and syncthing I was able to run Mastodon and Lemmy on the same server additionally.

Syncthing and I have it partitioned with:

• Music
• Documents
• Family Documents
• Password DB

So that I can decide what to sync to which device.Music is for example too big to sync to my Phone so I don’t. Family documents I also share with my partner. Password DB I sync with all my devices but not to anyone else.

I have Linux with GNOME and Android and my partner has iOS and Windows and all the CalDav and CardDav stuff works fine. Or at least adressbook and calendar. I couldn’t find a client for iOS for CalDav notes and tasks.
