Does Immich still require you to store all user photos into the same central directory?

I can’t move my family from Synology’s offering until I can be sure each users photos will be backed up to their own accessible drive.

Late to the party but Policenauts plays regularly in my head.

Why else would it be called the inverse square law?

Makes sense to me!

Yes, correct. You can always locally host it as there are other benefits like unifying user credentials for all your hosted services. But its primary design is to be hosted externally.

currently I host everything locally, but I don’t like the fact that anyone visiting my domain can easily find my address.

I’m in the process of determining on if I set up Pangolin myself or not. Another huge benefit is higher availability. (ex. If my internet goes down at home, I won’t know until I try to connect, but if I have an external service and it’s monitoring that connection, it can inform me when it loses connection)

Price is certainly something to consider when weighing its value for your setup

The connection between your Pangolin service (hosted outside your network) and your LAN is through a VPN. Essentially you’re creating a proxy that you can point your domain address at which isn’t your house’s IP address. Plus then everything inside your network is still secure behind your VPN.

So you connect to Pangolin, and Pangolin routes the traffic to your network.

Does anyone know of any good resources on writing good documentation? It’s a thing I’m weirdly passionate about and absolutely want to get better at for my own sanity and for others as well if I can contribute.

But it seems like it’s a very under discussed subject…

Veronica Explains has a really good video talking about how much of a dead skill it is now from the standards it used to be.

Ohhh, so that’s why it’s called Docker!

As in “It works on my system” so they just copied and pasted the commands for you.

Gax takes your imaginary friend by taking your imagination. You can’t think of any way to use the knowledge you’ve acquired. Shame.

Note: if the above isn’t working, you may need to first set your shell to accept emacs commands:

set -o emacs
