  • Immich is just much nicer, i can make an album and share it with my wife and she can see that on her phone right away since I set her phone to use immich as well.

    I used to use nextcloud for images but it was kind of weird and didn’t have a lot of the features, then randomly one day while I was at a work event nextcloud just decided to start syncing everything to my phone and killed my battery.

    After that I tried photo prisim but that didn’t have a proper sync app and I had to use other work arounds and I ended up just not liking the way it sorted my photos, immich to me just makes sense and was much easier to setup.

    Also like everyone else has mentioned being hardware agnostic is great, I can plug my phone in to a monitor with a keyboard and mouse and vpn in to a VM on my server and I have a full fledged desktop experience where I can play games or edit videos and photos











  • Ah that explains a lot, i had added a mastodon account to pixeldroid app so I thought it was the same thing as login with mastodon but after trying it some more todag I see the limitations of using a mastodon account as a pixelfed, more like just a bunch of mastodon posts showing up that don’t load right


  • Yeah i keep a nextcloud synced Obsidian vault and I have a entry for fresh installing my popos system with a list of all the software I install and from where with an Obsidian link to a note of each individual software if it needs more info, like config settings of rapid photo Downloader so that my photos are always imported and named the same or how to add the repository for tabby so that it updates along with all the stuff when I do apt update
