Show HN: A pure WebGL image editor with filters, crop and perspective correction
thanks. It started as a proof of concept for a custom reactivity engine (based on signals and tagged template literals). But while at it I realised I needed something quick and easy for my needs.
I already have a prototype for a self-hosted photogallery that integrates this editor (something like https://immich.app to give you an idea). But it's still to early to share

Bootstrap cluster with FluxCD
However, managing apps with Flux in my opinion is not the easiest and most comfortable solution. Especially, if we're changing versions quite often and we would like to have at least a few dependencies between apps and infra. For example, my Immich instance needs csi-driver-smb, which on the other hand requires external-secret-operator and external-secret-secret (the actual link between in-cluster secret and ESO ClusterSecretStore). So, every new relese, needs to be built and checks that all kustomizations are in place. Then actually deploy a new version. Very long process, also ArgoCD UI is just better, easier to use, and definitely more user-friendly - at least in my opinion.

Lessons in creating family photos that people want to keep (2018)
I highly suggest Immich [1], it's an open-source and self-host alternative for Google Photos. It's still under very active development, but I think it's the best out there.

Ask HN: What's the best way to de-Google photos?
I really like https://immich.app/
Has auto backup on the mobile apps, great webUI, multi user, face recognition and search all done locally.
Then for local and cloud backup you can use your preferred software like Restic or whatever you like.

Apple Photos phones home on iOS 18 and macOS 15
I'm moving my family out of apple photos, self hosted options have come a long way. I landed on immich [0] and a caddy plugin that allows for PKI certificate for account access while still allowing public shared URLs [1]*
There's also LibrePhotos which is packed with features but doesn't have as much polish as immich. They do however have a list of python libraries that can be used for offline/local inference for things like having an image model create a description of a photo that can benefit the full text search.
