Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Every day that I don't switch, immich keeps getting better!

Yeah I've been waiting until it's updates stop breaking backwards compatibility. It's sounding better and better as time goes on.

It might be time for me to make the switch, too Soo many things to selfhost and not enough time, but nextcloud had been annoying me for some time so it might get the priority

I also run both but don't see how Immich could be a replacement for Nextcloud?

I use NextCloud for syncing photos from my phone and sharing photo galleries with my SO. NextCloud is quite bad for viewing photos, that's why I have the Memories plugin and app, but it's still not perfect. I also have the Recognize plugin, but in my setup it's been broken for a few months and I don't have the time to fix it.

So if I replace the photo sharing functionality I could replace the NextCloud itself for file sharing with something lighter. Might even go back to SMB.
