I have been backing up the photos folder for my immich. Something weird happened with one of my hard drives so i had to restore. It has a folder for each year and inside there is a folder for each day. immich doesnt support the ability to drag and drop the year folder into the UI. What's the best way to get all my media back...
Yeah, shotwell looks good if you're a single user and already have all your images stored locally, although if you wanted face tagging DigiKam is also a local only photo management app that does some more advanced stuff.
I haven't used any of the 3, but from a look over them superfile looks a lot more user friendly and has a nicer overall look.
Edit; the install process is rough though, complains about missing glibc but searching for that package in apt doesn't show anything promising. It also seems to require some kind of third party font that isn't included? I gave up lol that's too much for me to deal with.
It's definitely a big learning curve with how complex installing things on linux is haha, I'm still used to windows just open the exe installer and that's it.
I mean there's that, but it's a lot of work for a dev too.
I would rather Linux just be able to detect what's missing and install it for me. In the case of a lot of missing components, what it says is missing will be named completely different from the package you need to install which makes it really hard.
It was always nice with windows installers because they would come with the needed components, or windows would just prompt to install them automatically.
Generally to depend on a container it needs to be in the same compose project, so if you move gluetun into the one with qbittorrent it should work fine.
Just installed Syncthing on my Scale server. It looks like it doesn't have users but rather folder IDs that are then used to sync devices. One of the cool features of Nextcloud is the ability to share files with other users. Can this be done with Syncthing?
Well each share can choose which devices it shows up for, so you don't really need users in that sense. But also if you run it under another user account it will have its own clean profile too.

so I finally got the motivation to install lineage os to my phone after thinking about it like year. and now that I finally modified this phone I started thinking about ricing this phone a bit.

EDIT: After reading all the responses, I’ve decided to allow cookies to persist after they close the browser, which I expect will make it so that 2FA doesn’t kick in as often, at least not on their most frequently used web sites. I may also look into privacy oriented browser extensions that might offer some protection, such...
I’ve configured Firefox on their Linux laptop not to keep any cookies after the browser is closed.
Why? Like I get it on your own computers where you're willing to deal with the hassle of that. But it's a huge pain for someone who just wants to use their PC.
I may also look into privacy oriented browser extensions that might offer some protection, such as Privacy Badger.
Who is out there running compose down -v when they want to keep their data lol
Not a fan of this change, using volumes is what makes docker truly portable between systems. It's not the responsibility of Immich if people are running the wrong commands when managing their system.
First before doing anything, do you have reliable tested backups in place for the data on the drives?
Hardware RAID is pretty difficult to work with, if the RAID controllers are the same model with the same firmware moving the drives should in theory work.
I've preferred Pixel phones for the last few years but I've heard that Pixel 6/7 had 5G connection problems (Pixel 8 apparently has a better modem, but I think I'd rather stick to a Qualcomm design for now)....
It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you'd love alternatives for?
I would love to see a good Lightroom alternative in terms of ease of use.
Darktable is great and the results are good, but it's pretty complex to use and has a really steep learning curve. And it doesn't do photo management other than a few basics. Even after months of use I still struggle to replicate what I can do in Lightroom.
Hmm, when I tried editing in external software it doesn't seem to show the edited RAWs when browsing in digikam, because the only way to sync that info is with XMP sidecars and those don't work well for transferring editing changes between software.
I have about 30k RAW files and the initial scan was only a few percent done after over an hour last time I tried it. Lightroom does the initial scan including preview generation in maybe 30 minutes.
I have been thinking about self-hosting my personal photos on my linux server. After the recent backdoor was detected I'm more hesitant to do so especially because i'm no security expert and don't have the time and knowledge to audit my server....
Self hosting personal photos doesn't generally require opening anything up to the internet, so most backdoors would not be accessible by anyone but you.
Everything was good, great in fact. Everything was working, but my OCD weren't okay with how a few services were set-up, so I cleaned up my yaml, commented my docker compose and felt cushty… right up until it was time to fix Immich....
