    What does the $100 server key unlock (besides “supporter status”), since features aren’t paywalled?

      • 𝕸𝖔𝖘𝖘@infosec.pubEnglish

        Oh, so… 100% worth every penny, then. Finally, a software cost with actual benefits.

        Edit. It sounds sarcastic, but I’m being serious.

    • jqubed@lemmy.worldEnglish

      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.

      • kindred@lemmy.dbzer0.comEnglish

        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.

    • OhNoMoreLemmy@lemmy.mlEnglish

      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.

    • richmondez@lemdro.idEnglish

      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.

    That video was… something…

    Anyway I love Immich. It’s definitely been on a stable release for a bit, but I think they’re just trying to get the word out. A lot of people seem to think it’s still in alpha.

    Personally, I’ve been running the same Immich server for years now, rolling all the way up to the current release and I’ve never had any data loss. I just had to read the patch notes and adjust my docker compose accordingly a couple times.

    It’s well worth paying for that supporter badge, btw. I’ve easily gotten more than $100 value out of it.

    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

    • SayCyberOnceMore@feddit.ukEnglish

      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…)

      • madjo@feddit.nlEnglish

        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.

      i think they added it as beta, then reverted, then now is being reworked

    • LordKitsuna@lemmy.worldEnglish

      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

      I’m running it bare metal on my NAS.

      No problems, plus I don’t have to do extra container stuff.

          3 months

          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.

      • atzanteol@sh.itjust.worksEnglish
        3 months

        “not running in a container” is not “running on bare metal”. It’s just running outside a container.

        • SayCyberOnceMore@feddit.ukEnglish
          3 months

          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.

          • atzanteol@sh.itjust.worksEnglish
            3 months

            “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.

      I know we all hate AI, but we’re actually angry at generative LLMs. The kind of “AI” that Immich uses is a classifier and is absolutely not the same as ChatGPT.

      They should have made this clear in their video.

      • nfreak@lemmy.mlEnglish
        3 months

        Their usage is basically just the same old machine learning that’s existed for ages, long before the genAI bubble started. They really should avoid the buzzword for accuracy’s sake but it’s far removed from all the LLM generative dogshit.

      • cRazi_man@europe.pubEnglish

        That was my understanding, that Immich and PaperlessNGX run AI locally on your machine. That’s why the server PC sounds like a fighter jet ready to take off for hours on end when a large library is first added.

                  What does is coming into the ONE there’s, leaving a counter opinion, and then calling group think when it turns out people disagree with you.

                  And same to you, remember some people on the internet are autistic and are genuinely this flat in writing.

          I hate AI that is corporate/state spying that requires contestant constant internet access while burning fossil fuels and raising the cost of PC components.

          I love the AI that can help me find photos of my son using my ancient thinkstation that was already old when I got second hand.

          AI/ML have so broad definitions that they can encompass many things. The technologies arent bad, the problems are Capitalism and Autocracies.

      The AI is just image and object recognition and tagging. It’s very powerful (even runs on CPU in docker) and useful. No LLMs here.

          Futo’s CEO being a alt right piece of shit is a better reason.

          I didn’t down vote ya but, I am quite certain that if we knew all the little idiosyncrasies, personal core values, or private lives of both open source and closed source software devs, teams, sponsors, equipment manufacturers, components, et al, we’d probably never turn on our computers. I mean, I get it, you are free to make choices. I wouldn’t have it any other way. However, until the dev teams start writing that into their software, I’m ok with them being an alt right piece of shit. It’s kind of like, I enjoy Ted Nugent’s music. It comes up in my playlist every so often. I can’t stand his political stance, but I am able to separate the two without condoning his political core beliefs. Gosh, if I were to listen to only those artists that align with my core beliefs, it’d be a mighty slim playlist. ymmv

                You should look up the tolerance paradox.

                Tl;Dr the ONE thing a tolerant society must be intolerant of is intolerance itself.

                I don’t care about your opinions on a lot of things. But intolerance of people for inherit traits is the one thing I don’t stand for.

              OK, thanks.

              Not really that helpful, it’s just more he said/she said.

              Grapheneos is a pretty poor choice of example, it has its own issues, they have conflicts with many others (see France pullout), they have openly fought with Murena, e/os, fairphone, among others. Plus, grapheneos likes to throw shade on “less permissive licenses”, which is really weird, considering they use an MIT license, whose loose terms is abused by many not-so-great companies.

              The lead of grapheneos is just as controversial as futo, gets into public spats with others, generally difficult to work with, etc.

              I say this using GrapheneOS myself.

              I’m not a fan of the Curtis Yarvin association, though.

              The people running these companies aren’t perfect. Sometimes they aren’t ideal, either. But I’d rather use Immich than Google photos and heliboard than Swiftkey.
