What are you using as a Google photos alternative? Currently I’m using Nextcloud but I’m thinking of switching to a more dedicated solution.

I mainly need to upload photos from my device automatically, have an UI to see and classify them, albuns and sharing.

    I’m using Immich in Nixos. It’s simple. Takes about 10 mins. You need to set Docker up in your configuration.nix then set Immich up using docker compose. Let me know if you need a hand getting it going.

      Omg, i forgot to reply to this one

      I don’t use docker, it’s not fully opensource, and not secure by default

      Also, setting up docker and running docker-compose is not the nix way of doing things

      Ideally you want to translate docker-compose.yml to nix

      Also, yesterday i tried to do this whole thing again, and broke even more than before

      This time i was able to run all the containers, but the server couldn’t resolve the redis container

          I know, those were just my words about docker specifically

          Not really drop-in when it comes to docker-compose, or basically any advanced use

          My opinion: docker is the worst, podman is better, native nixos is the best

          edit: also, just to mention, podman is the default on nixos for oci containers
