@nico198X I don't think it's quite meant as that type of software. If you want a true replacement of Google Photos, you'll have to look into #selfhosted software for backing up purposes. Or if it's just a photo album app you want, you could look at alternative gallery apps like #AvesLibre (on #FDroid).
I use #Syncthing to back up my photos without Google Photos, myself. I've heard good things about #Immich as a self-hosted alternative, too: https://github.com/immich-app/immich
@smoltron I have only very low power CPUs at home. Except the son's ps5. According to docs #immich sends only preview images to remote machine learning, perhaps it would work to use the #OpenShift AI cluster from datacenter to run the mass recognition once. Or perhaps just easier to bring home some laptop with GPU for a day. Need to think a bit. But Immich was super nice find!
Would be cool if one could hook up ps5 to #immich to use the GPU for image machine learning. Unfortunately I don't have another GPU at home. I suppose VPN to datacenter for accessing serious GPUs would be a bit slow and overkill :)
Wau. #Immich is super nice. I don't even have used GPU yet to find faces and duplicates. But it's very slick and the map fearure is nice. Of course the initial image import is slow on raspi (ffmpeg) but UI is slick. Now I need to figure out which machine to use for GPU tasks.
Ok. #immich installed on rasperry pi 4 running #microshift #k8s. Now what? Will raspi be beefy enough to run it? No GPU at least. Need to try how to use the external lib mounted to pod over nfs from nas. Redis and posgresql on the same raspi k8s.
I've spent the eventing working on this project.
This afternoon I was chatting with @fabrixxm about editing flow with #immich. Upload all photos an than? Download, edit with gimp and upload again?
The idea behind this project is to be able browse the images on #immich server with file system, open the image with gimp and saving the jpg it will be uploaded back.
It's still a POC, but any suggestion, help and boost will be appreciated.
Successfully got #immich installed on my NAS; my phone's currently backing up to it.
Next week: investigate bulk-loading my existing photos.
Pues ya he migrado y me he instalado #Immich en mu servidor casero. Ya solo me falta conseguir que la app móvil se conecte al servidor.
#selfhosting upgrading #nexctloud and #immich.
Continuing a winning streak of successful upgrades of community based FOSS continues.
BTW: IPng has voluntarily bought a license for #immich to support the project.
You should support your local self-hosted non-big-tech supplier (including Mastodon)!
Ich leg heute noch einen nach... nun habe ich noch die Anleitung für die Google-Photos - Alternative Immich geschrieben. Diese baut auf meine vorherige Installations-Anleitung für Docker und Portainer auf. Hiermit lässt sich in wenigen Minuten schnell und einfach eine eigene Photo-Cloud im lokalen Netzwerk installieren. Die passende App gibt es auch dafür.

This week in #FDroid (TWIF) is live:
* GmapsVW is back
* #OrganicMaps freed from proprietary forges
* #Ente hits 1.0
* #Immich today, more tomorrow
* Goodtime makes #pomodoro easy
+ 7 new apps
+ 110 updates

#DeGAFAMisation : pour une photothèque à la hauteur de Google/Amazon/iCloud Photos, avec carte pour la localisation des photos et d'autres fonctionnalités, j'ai identifié deux alternatives open source très intéressantes : #Piwigo et #PhotoPrism. Mais je n'ai pas encore décidé quoi choisir. Quels sont les avantages et les inconvénients d'après vous ? Vous avez d'autres alternatives à me conseiller ? On vient de me parler de #Immich par exemple. J'aimerais avoir quelques retours d'expérience.

If you are going to copy your photos from Google Photos to Immich, remember that it will take some time!
I have ~300k photos and videos.
Downloading ~1.4T of Takeout took 2 days.
Copying and unzipping these on my debian box took about half a day.
Importing using immich-go took a day.
And immich is still running background jobs a day later.
#GooglePhotos #immich #SelfHosting
(most annoying: a) why did I use tgz over zip? b) restarting those failed takeout downloads every now and again)
@ironicbadger & @ChrisLAS - if y’all are going to do a segment on #Immich kiosk, I’d be happy to preemptively share what I’ve got going with it. to;dr is a little pi-sized “digital photo frame” on my desk & a 65” tv near my front door that has digital art via Immich kiosk and a home dashboard that can be switched to with the push of a zigbee button. The TV and an old tiny Lenovo to run it were acquired for free. The Pi one is all #Nix-ified too.
Looks like someone added in support for #nixos #homemanager to the #immich uploader which is great to see! I merged it in so feel free to give it a try all! Should make it easier to get it running now on all the nixos mobile devices.
@cjwr1ght People swear by Nextcloud, I could never get it to feel like I wasn't in an early-00s ASP back end.
Not #FOSS obviously, but I use my #Synology NAS as a really robust Google Drive replacement.
I was using their Photos app too until I got #immich working as I wanted.
I'll checkout #owncloud though - I'd rather be FOSSing it.

#immich photo deduplication works very well. Didnt know I had so many
#SelfHosting
@tonyp OK, so this I did not expect: I have put `/var/lib/docker` onto a separate disk, because I expected that to be where all data for all images would go.
But no!
immich stores photos in `/data/compose/*` for some reason.
That would explain why my first test failed after uploading a bunch of photos...
Will have to reorganise...
