Lastly, I have #immich in a #proxmox VM as a readonly viewer of the samba share so I can see photos on my phone and other devices. My devices connect to #wireguard when out of the house so they can still access the server to sync!

Hope that is helpful to someone, and let me know what I'm doing wrong and can improve!

@smoltron I have only very low power CPUs at home. Except the son's ps5. According to docs #immich sends only preview images to remote machine learning, perhaps it would work to use the #OpenShift AI cluster from datacenter to run the mass recognition once. Or perhaps just easier to bring home some laptop with GPU for a day. Need to think a bit. But Immich was super nice find!

Success!!! I've migrated Immich from an x86 Debian system to Asahi Fedora on an M1 Mac Mini.
Installing Fedora was easy
Installing Docker was easy.
Installing Tailscale was super simple.
Installing and setting up CSF was easy, but only because I had notes from last time on how to make Docker and Tailscale cooperate.

Migrating the Immich database was a nightmare!! I think because my old system was a mishmash of legacy settings from 100+ releases ago... Also, my old system wasn't on the very newest release, which in itself made migration fail initially.

Ich habe mal testweise Immich installiert. Das sieht echt gut aus und erinnert wirklich sehr an Google Photos. Immich ist zwar noch in einer Beta-Phase, aber dafür läuft es schon sehr gut.

Von den fast 18.000 Fotos und Videos sind nun schon gut 10.000 hochgeladen und die CPU hat gut zu tun, denn das muss alles erst verarbeitet werden. 😂

Wer es ausprobieren möchte, findet auf der Immich-Webseite den Link zum testen. Die passende App für's Handy gibt es auch dazu. 👍

If you are going to copy your photos from Google Photos to Immich, remember that it will take some time!
I have ~300k photos and videos.
Downloading ~1.4T of Takeout took 2 days.
Copying and unzipping these on my debian box took about half a day.
Importing using immich-go took a day.
And immich is still running background jobs a day later.

(most annoying: a) why did I use tgz over zip? b) restarting those failed takeout downloads every now and again)
