EDIT: After reading all the responses, I’ve decided to allow cookies to persist after they close the browser, which I expect will make it so that 2FA doesn’t kick in as often, at least not on their most frequently used web sites.

I’ve configured Firefox on their Linux laptop not to keep any cookies after the browser is closed.
Why? Like I get it on your own computers where you’re willing to deal with the hassle of that. But it’s a huge pain for someone who just wants to use their PC.
I may also look into privacy oriented browser extensions that might offer some protection, such as Privacy Badger.
First before doing anything, do you have reliable tested backups in place for the data on the drives?
Hardware RAID is pretty difficult to work with, if the RAID controllers are the same model with the same firmware moving the drives should in theory work.
I’ve preferred Pixel phones for the last few years but I’ve heard that Pixel 6/7 had 5G connection problems (Pixel 8 apparently has a better modem, but I think I’d rather stick to a Qualcomm design for now)....
Yep, Proxmox has a built in backup solution which I use paired with proxmox backup server, I also run backups with restic on each VM/CT of the important stuff like config files.
I test restores every now and then, just by either restoring a full VM/CT, or doing a restic restore and checking over some files.
It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?
I would love to see a good Lightroom alternative in terms of ease of use.
Darktable is great and the results are good, but it’s pretty complex to use and has a really steep learning curve. And it doesn’t do photo management other than a few basics. Even after months of use I still struggle to replicate what I can do in Lightroom.
Hmm, when I tried editing in external software it doesn’t seem to show the edited RAWs when browsing in digikam, because the only way to sync that info is with XMP sidecars and those don’t work well for transferring editing changes between software.
I have about 30k RAW files and the initial scan was only a few percent done after over an hour last time I tried it. Lightroom does the initial scan including preview generation in maybe 30 minutes.
I have been thinking about self-hosting my personal photos on my linux server. After the recent backdoor was detected I’m more hesitant to do so especially because i’m no security expert and don’t have the time and knowledge to audit my server. All I’ve done so far is disabling password logins and changing the ssh port....
Self hosting personal photos doesn’t generally require opening anything up to the internet, so most backdoors would not be accessible by anyone but you.
Everything was good, great in fact. Everything was working, but my OCD weren’t okay with how a few services were set-up, so I cleaned up my yaml, commented my docker compose and felt cushty… right up until it was time to fix Immich....
So first things first, let’s rename database to immich-database, redis to immich-redis
Docker compose does this for you, so a service named database becomes immich-database if your compose project is named “immich” by placing it inside a folder by that name. You would have ended up with immich-immich-database
Same goes for your volumes.
most importantly, let’s give it a port that’s not the default postgres port that everyone wants to use. Easy right? Nope.
Since the postgres container is on that specific compose project network, the port is not shared and won’t interfere with any other compose projects, so there’s no need to change it away from the default. The main thing is each compose project is isolated by itself.
Also get rid of the ports: map for the database, it’s already part of the same compose network and does not need a port exposed to the outside.
so I went in and added the IP as the DB_URL to the .env
Don’t use IPs to refer to docker containers as they change, instead use the container name so database for example. (Just don’t prefix it with the project name, so don’t use immich-database for example).
Essentially just undo your changes and it should all work as expected, and will be entirely isolated so won’t interfere with any other containers or compose projects you run.

That’s wild, how do they not have the server budget to show you the website, but do have some to show you a queue signup? Surely those take about the same amount of resources!
