vm VS immich

While the Hansson VM works fine and I haven't had many issues other than this, I strongly recommend to use a difference version of NC. This guy is obviously trying to scam users into paying him money for something he could easily add to his update script. Proof is here on this GitHub page, though I was unable to get it working. However that is likely a limitation of my abilities and nothing to do with being able to modify the script.

What is the difference between the All-In-One VM on the NextCloud website and those from Hansson IT? According to the GitHub page, the version on the NextCloud website is not the "full version". What does that mean? What is missing?

Yes, I've run into an occasional issue during the upgrade on the VM, but I always take a snapshot before the update so i can roll back and try again if i run into any issues. To install ffmpeg or others, you can directly install it on the VM. A simple apt-get and it'll be a persistent install (It won't be uninstalled by a NC update). The official Nextcloud VM uses ubuntu and Postgres (https://github.com/nextcloud/vm) and is pre-tuned for pretty good performance. It also has some built in scripts in the /var/scripts directory that you can use to easily install additional features and configurations, test beta releases, etc.

If you're up for another attempt, try without AIO. It is not as easy to find as it used to be, I admit, but it is there on https://github.com/nextcloud/vm. The 2 links below are found on the github page.

I'd recommend informing the devs about this via Github.

The vm says, "If your DDNS provider isn't already supported, please open a new issue here: https://github.com/nextcloud/vm/issues".

It really is hard to leave Gmail when all of your data has been conveniently stored therein. This is one of Google's retention strategies and it is indeed brilliant.

That said, there's a vast number of self-hosted alternatives like Stalwart Mail (email) [1], Immich (images) [2], NextCloud (Google Docs) [3], etc.

Last year we added CLIP-based image search to https://immich.app/ and even though I have a pretty good understanding of how it works, it still blows my mind damn near every day. It's the closest thing to magic I've ever seen.

I’m a big fan of https://immich.app/ and I use it every day for thousands of assets

Real-world applications often require complex queries that go beyond simple Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search. To explore a practical example of such applications, let's take a closer look at immich, a self-hosted photo and video backup solution that highlights the importance of advanced vector and traditional relational queries.

I discovered these 3 amazing projects recently:

Cryptpad, essentially google docs/sheets/forms e2e encrypted. It does include collaboration. https://github.com/cryptpad/cryptpad

Immich, google photos self hostable, with share options https://github.com/immich-app/immich

Nginxproxymanager manages certificates and proxies to self hosted stuff through nginx https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager

Great self hosting stuff!

I realize it's very hard, but can we maybe reconsider opening the encryption-at-rest feature request? https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/450

Maybe we can give temporary access to processing steps in the pipeline, then have Immich forget the keys after it does the processing?
