What’s happening on your servers? Any interesting news things you tried?

I didn’t do anyone other than updating Mastodon (native deployment) lately due to a lack of time. Reading so much about Immich caused me to consider trying it in parallel to Nextcloud but I’m not sure if I want to have everything twice.

Not quite homelab, but I’m about to install Linux Mint on my mom’s laptop and that had me thinking about creating an off-site backup in her place again since she has a fiber connection. I’m still not sure about the potential design though, but currently my only backup is in the same rack as the live stuff.

    I’ve had immich but went to homegalley instead. Mostly because I want to keep MY directory structure in case I’m abandoning the choosen platform. Have not regretted my choice (so far … 8 months)

      I’ve been using Immich, but with my photos as external media. That lets me keep my directory structure too, but with the Immich features 🙂

        I’ve not been able to make it work reliably with photos backed up using immich on my android phone, is if working for you? I read somewhere storage templates are not very robust/reliable.
