imaginary VS all-in-one

WebP also frequently produces lower quality or blurry images: - https://wordpress.org/support/topic/images-going-blurry/ - https://github.com/h2non/imaginary/issues/240

One thing I didn't mention that AIO includes is a container called imaginary which is written in Go and processes images. I think this is mainly used here for generating image previews in NC.

Thanks. This is new to me. How is it different from https://github.com/h2non/imaginary?

There is also battle-tested imaginary tool [1], offering similar functionality and much more, also using libvips

[1] https://github.com/h2non/imaginary

Imaginary is a fast HTTP microservice written in Go allowing high-level image processing. Behind the scene, imaginary uses bimg and libvips libraries to perform the image manipulations.

If you aren't super technical please please go for the all-in-one. The manual docker image is super complicated for an unexperienced user. I'm super well at home in Linux and command lines and I wouldn't even CONSIDER doing it the manual way. The AIO is hard enough, and orders of magnitude simpler. Don't even think about docker compose or all that stuff - go to https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/ and follow that...

Newbie to NC here, hosting at home. Reading through the local-only guide and have a couple of questions, if you don't mind:

I followed https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/reverse-proxy.md

Or this one? https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one

I can't figure out the steps to get things running locally. (https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one/blob/main/local-instance.md) I'm trying the docker AIO for Windows, and I think I'm on step 2. I've pasted the steps from the link over.. I hope for some guidance here :)
