Hello everybody,

After the shout-out to Alex (from Self-hosted.show) from the comment section in my last post when I shared the Vergecast's episode about hardship in self-hosting, Alex and I got together, and we scheduled a session to talk about Immich this week. We talk about Immich, the team behind the application, its architecture, current features, future plans, and the sustainability aspect of the project. I want to share the episode with you all.

Have a great weekend!

Alex

Bare metal install option would be very appreciated, then there will also be a simple tteck script for Proxmox and user base will further increase. Docker is still a hurdle for many.

I scrolled through the discussion and remembered why I love Docker. The only people who see Docker as a hurdle are those who haven't used it. Especially with these microservice apps.

I run my self-hosting stuff on lxd and nest docker, but lxd is a better fit for 90% of my needs. I don't hate throwing docker-only or docker-preferred stuff into a nested docker container, but I will almost always look for alternatives to docker-only software. That said, I fully understand why immich devs would prefer to package for docker-only and leave other approaches to the community.
