Welcome to version v1.109.0 of Immich. This release introduces an additional way for you to support Immich financially as well as bug fixes for various issues. Some of the highlights in this release include:

Immich license pricing is $25 per user or $99 per server for a lifetime license.

For me, the license stuff is odd. They offer a license model with two tiers (user / server), yet the license seems to do nothing (except showing a little badge). Also, it is a one time payment which will likely not be substantial in the future.

Why not create a "supporter" tier for maybe $2 per month or so, this would bring some recurring income without the fears of paywalling the product.

They already accept donations as a means of continuous support. So I guess this is now just another channel for people who prefer buying a license over using github donations.

Edit: oh I just realized they stopped donations with the restructuring. Ok, that's weird then.

How dare you pay continued support. You will have a one time fee and be happy.

I can't wait until they make you hand enter a 30 character license key

They'll supply a giant paper manual, and you'll have to look through it to find the key. DRM, 1980s style.

... each time the server restart and randomly during login.
