  • Anecdotally, a couple months ago, someone posted the latest image release, without comment, because back then people weren’t pretending to be illiterate. But there was a change to postgres that broke shit. A month or so later, someone posted saying that their Immich had stopped working and I was able to assist them because I had clicked through the link and read the changes at the time. I was really proud to be able to give back to the community in the same way so many others had helped me. Oh well!


  • I’ve been posting updates for months (three or four). Being self hosted, it’s easy to miss updates and as things were indubitably new to me, I was manually checking by doing pulls on everything I host and I was excited to contribute to the community in my little way. In that time, people had on occasion thanked me for my effort, especially in regards to the Zigbee2MQTT updates. I even managed to alert people one time that an update to Docker broke home assistant and every time, I was happy I could do something to help people, even though it’s such a small thing. Bear in mind, these updates had an upvote rate of ~91% and ~60 votes. I went back and checked, because I’m a saddo. This is my first time having someone complain and normally I’d swear and stand my ground, but instead I’m just like frig it. Let them have it how they want. Gone are the times when this community wasn’t seeing any new posts and I wanted to try and keep this community feeling alive. I’m glad the community has grown to such a point that my contributions are unnecessary.
