      It might be this bit

      On top of that, backup and restore functionality is now fully supported in the web interface. Users can restore database backups directly from the Immich UI, either through the administration maintenance page or during onboarding of a new instance.

        Yeah I saw that… not really what I would consider a “web backup” exactly. I was hoping they were rolling out encrypted photo storage plans.

    This release also brings you […] a new font face (“The-name-must-not-be-named” Sans) that improves reading legibility, especially for numbers and smaller text

    What’s the story about that font name? I’m out of the loop.

    Just purchased a server license (for life). Not only is this update jam packed full of nice features, but a lot of their updates are. I’ve been self-hosting it (on a VPS) for the past year and it’s about time I supported them

      There are docker script and docker compose installs. It was basically reading the documents and Editting a few text files and launching it in docker. Hardest part I found was the face tagging, it was totally counter intuitive to assign a face and persons name. Like almost obfuscated. Once you set that up though it just does its thing superbly well

      This software is more meant to be ran in a server environment, it’s suppose to be a replacement to subscription based photo/video cloud storage. I would not recommend you run this on a desktop you use daily as it’ll consume resources in the background slowing your desktop down, this is kinda why NAS storage systems exist.

      Once you get a grasp on the BASH shell I would suggest playing around with docker and docker compose in a headless environment (headless = no desktop environment, shell only) as there are loads of applications you can self-host over your network.

    Yesss I’ve been wanting the clean up space feature ever since I left Google Photos. I need to remember to donate next time I get paid.
