Awesome stuff. I’m currently reusing my router and media device to host a file sever, radicale (contacts, calendar and tasks) and immich. All this stuff on old HDDs taken from old laptops with a usb enclosure. Get redundancy with rsyncing between drives and everything was essentially low cost. It’s not pretty or the fastest but good enough for my needs.
Netbird and zerotier servers in my router to connect my devices as I’m behind CGNAT. Essentially have contacts, calendar, tasks, files and photos all under my control. No fancy media player but don’t have time to watch films or series outside. Immich was the last step to get rid of google stored files. Good riddance.
Can you access immich from outside of your network? If so, how do you do it? I’d like to do it, too, without accidentally opening everything to the internet haha
Yes, either Netbird or Zerotier allow me to connect to my home lan without exposing ports to the outside. Netbird seems more user friendly to setup and there’s good documentation for openwrt.
