Immich is amazing until you update and your wife is complaining she can't see her photos.
The most reliable piece of hardware and software I have is my Synology.
Now that it’s in stable release, is it really still the case?
Honestly, the time i had to manually intervene since ~2 years is less then 5-10 times, and that is way before the stable release. So I doubt that.
I only set up auto-update since the stable release, but I don’t think I’ve ever had an issue since I set it up 2 years ago. Every time I read the release notes they said “go for it”, and… it worked. I guess trauma holds much longer for those who were there early ;)
You know, I have been using Immich since forever. The last issue was probably a year ago.
Don't update anything without a way to restore.
I just rename the immich file, install a new immich instance and copy the data over manually to the new install, deleting the old install file after a week or so
I've had the least buggy experience that way
Immich updating is a dogwater experience
I wish it was that simple. I have over 15 TB of videos and images as far back as the 1970s. Mostly in raw format or slog format. Copying and pasting an instance would take me a ton of time.
Yeah I wouldnt trust immich with directly storing it myself
Get that stuff off on its own and have immich access that as shown in Louis Rossmann's setup video
Think of it like having a dedicated steam drive with the os on its own, so if you have to format or decide to distrohop, you don't have to download and reinstall a dozen +250GB games
