It probably doesn’t matter at the scale you’ll be operating. But Backblaze has more data than anyone here about reliability.

SimpleX is pretty good for person to person chat I’ve heard it doesn’t handle large groups very well though.

Mattermost is an easily hostable slack-like option.

I’m not saying it’s a scam necessarily, but the schedule and budget seem optimistic enough to make me question wether the folks running it have any prior experience with manufacturing.

First project created, only want $50k, delivery is basically as soon as the project ends.

I would be surprised if the backers of this project receive anything.

One of those testimonials is talking about a release every other minute. I don’t care what build flag manager you use, that sounds awful.

That’s what I get for skimming.

Try autofs

Buy it before it goes back in the Disney vault!

I personally like that it needs less babysitting.

Between myself, my wife, and my kids there are 6 client devices. And I like not having to deal with the incompatible cross-version issues that I kept running into with just one client device on immich.

It doesn’t have the same ML search that immich has, but they’re adding faces, and I’ve been able to get by with date and location while that kind of stuff is added.

And while I haven’t used it yet, I appreciate that they have an easy, readily available “export” function if you decide to switch to a different image gallery

Technically I think you can use any S3 compatible storage.

I was looking at running a garage instance on a Zimaboard at my parents’ house, but didn’t bother to follow through.

I wanted to like immich, but it felt like everytime I opened it there was a little box saying there was a new version available. Which would be fine except for when that new version wasn’t compatible with the server version I was running, and upgrading that frequently needed changes to my compose file because they changed some option or library or something.

I just want something that can store pictures of my family without a lot of tinkering.

This can also be self hosted and is a much better photo gallery than nextcloud.

But with fewer breaking changes.

Damnit, I just learned about locus a month or so ago.

I have it running. Seems to be working fine.

Getting it up and running was a challenge, but once it’s up it seems stable.

That’s often a BIOS setting.

Are you actually chatting with anyone or is that just your authentication?

Something like magic-wormhole (or webwormhole) seems better suited to file transfers, or onetimesecret for shorter chunks of text. Both of which are self hostable.

Ente is pretty nice.
