Maybe a potential option is Opnsense on some x86 hardware? Would be really easy to find a mini PC or something.

Using an image with a watermark will get you sent legal threats or fines.

Any idea how well verified the images are on those sites? What’s the chance that one with copyright gets uploaded and I get hit with a giant fine for using it?

Absolutely hate it, I just close tabs I’m interested in reading if it has AI generated images.

Interesting, waiting on network mounts could be useful!

I deploy everything through Komodo so it’s handling the initial start of the stack, updates, logs, etc…

That’s wild! What advantage do you get from it, or is it just because you can for fun?

Also I’ve never seen a service created for each docker stack like that before…

Doing a volume like the default Immich docker-compose uses should work fine, even through restarts. I’m not sure why your setup is blowing up the volume.

Normally volumes are only removed if there is no running container associated with it, and you manually run docker volume prune

Do a one-time copy of your photos using SFTP or FolderSync or whatever works for you.

The ‘how’ is to disable/remove the Gemini app, no reason to have that junk on the phone.

Well one advantage is you can just use this tool instead of needing to use each website or app individually, it saves a lot of time that way.

Also might as well have one less company collecting data on you, vs using a commercial closed source social media management tool.

Could be a difference in how they’ve set up charging cut off points.

Could try Fedora based like Bazzite or just regular Fedora. Obviously a sample size of 2 isn’t saying much, but Bazzite is less buggy with the hardware on my HP laptop, and my destop with an Nvidia GPU.

Batch mode is great! I didn’t realize it was added until just now hah

Often the hotkeys on laptops for screen brightness, mute, etc will either not work or be wonky, on my HP Elitebook on Debian distros the brightness keys both mute the speakers instead, they work fine on Fedora though.

Nextcloud client/app compatible WebDAV server with a lightweight file browser webUI, and multi-user support.

Should be the closest thing to Google Drive without actually running Nextcloud.

The only issue is it looks like the Nextcloud iOS clients don’t work.

It’s pretty easy, you can browse files in an LXC backup and restore specific parts. For VMs you can just restore the whole VM and copy out what you need.

I back up all the directories and docker-compose files using Restic (via Backrest) stored on Backblaze B2, and also the whole Docker LXC via Proxmox’s backup function to a local HDD.

There’s a chance some databases could be backed up in an unusable state, but I keep like 30-50 snapshots going back months, so I figure if the latest one has a bad DB backup, I could go back another day and try that one.

I also don’t really have irreplaceable data stored in DBs, stuff like Immich has data in a DB that would be annoying to lose, but the photos themselves are just on the filesystem.

For testing Restic I pull a backup and just go through and check some of the important files.

Proxmox backup is really easy to test, as it just restores the whole LXC with a new ID and IP that I can check.

NP! That’s how I do it on proxmox, I’ll start the VM every so often and update it. Only takes a few seconds to clone so it’s nice and quick to do.

Simple method is just keep a ready to go VM and clone it.

I’m always wary of aftermarket stuff just because poor quality cells can sometimes catch fire for no reason at all.
