As an FYI to people who are upgrading and use a preexisting postgres database If you still use pgvecto.rs (if the command \dx on the immich database responds with vectors not vector) you will need to install both pgvector and vectorchord in order to continue using immich. This will require restarting your postgres instance at least once if not twice.

It threw me for a loop at first because of the similar naming. Just thought I would share.

As this is version 3.0.0, I'll wait a bit before upgrading.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 5 points 38 minutes ago

Wait for 3.0.3 and then the emergency 3.0.4. 😅

This is my thought also. v2.7.5 has been stable since April. I'm gonna stick with that for the moment.

Ooh, the workflows idea is interesting.

What I really want is for my photos to expire.

Most of the photos I take are junk photos: a picture of a receipt, a picture of a sprinkler model number, a picture of a random bug I saw while I was cleaning the pool. I just need these photos once and then I never need them again. I wish they would go away on their own.

Of course, there are also times when I do want to keep pictures, birthdays, vacations, etc.

I wish Immich (or someone) would create a camera with a switch that allows you to pre sort images into albums: permanent vs temporary

Of course, the Big Tech guys would never do this because they want you to store all of that junk on their clouds.

But, Immich could actually help trim junk.

This is an excellent idea.

Neat! Commenting so I’ll remember to revisit.

Sounds like you should self-host Nextcloud with Tasks and Tasks.org on your phone. 😄

[–] BartyDeCanter@piefed.social 2 points 38 minutes ago

You mean run TaskWarrior and host a sync server, right?

Have you seen the bookmark feature on lemmy?

I was just thinking about this the other day: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/tree/main/docker

Make sure to use the docker-compose.yml of the current release: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/releases/latest/download/docker-compose.yml

The compose file on main may not be compatible with the latest release.

I definitely have not been checking for updates on the compose files on any of my self hosted apps... I probably should...

[–] DarkSirrush@piefed.ca 3 points 1 hour ago

In all honesty, immich's very opinionated way of doing a compose file gives me so many headaches compared to pretty much every other docker app I use.

My upgrade path was breaking by deployment a few weeks ago, seeing the v3 was around the corner and just starting again :)

Sad to see the I can't make a workflow to add photos to an album based on face recognition. Wanted that you have a family album

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 1 points 45 minutes ago

That's probably coming too. This is the first preview of the feature.
