I think my problem is that I didn’t have the proper .env file the first time I started it up after moving the yml file, and that’s why immich thought it neded to create a new database from scratch. Does that make sense? I think it’s realy overwritten those
I grew up in So Cal and the Vandals were part of my mis-spent youth, lol.
So, you know how youtube.com is part of the Goog empire? They track everything you watch, sell that data to advertisers, get ticked at you when you run an ad blocker, etc…?
Well, Invidious is a chunk of software anyone can install which acts like a new front-end for youtube.com. They block Goog from know who’s really watching the video, get it without ads, and so on. You just watch the video, free and clear of that BS. It’s slightly slower because of the process going on under the hood but it’s a lot better experience.
yewtu.be is someone’s installation of Invidious. It’s probably the largest in terms of traffic, but there are lots of other Invidious servers online now.
In any case, just sit back and enjoy. When you see a yewtu.be link, just think “That’s just like youtube.com except without the BS”
