  • That video was… something…

    Anyway I love Immich. It’s definitely been on a stable release for a bit, but I think they’re just trying to get the word out. A lot of people seem to think it’s still in alpha.

    Personally, I’ve been running the same Immich server for years now, rolling all the way up to the current release and I’ve never had any data loss. I just had to read the patch notes and adjust my docker compose accordingly a couple times.

    It’s well worth paying for that supporter badge, btw. I’ve easily gotten more than $100 value out of it.

  • what’s really federation on a system that isolates conversations per server?

    That’s like asking why Lemmy needs federation if posts are tied to a Community.

    No federation means:

    • Every server requires a different user account to join a room
    • Every server needs to be accessed from a different URL
    • Users in different servers cannot direct message, call, or friendlist one another

    Federated platforms aren’t perfect, but they solve these problems.
