That puss looks comfortable.

Thanks, I’ll give it a go!

I suppose it’ll be easy since my whole stack uses IPv4, so I’ll be simply adding another interface on without service disruptions.

Each year I seem to think “this will be the year I set up IPv6 in my homelab” - but then I never get around to it.

If I have to run both v4 and v6 concurrently, there isn’t much incentive/motivation for me to use v6 locally.

Maybe I’ll get around to it when there’s a net benefit for me for my use case, or when I’m forced to.

Am I just imagining it to be more complicated than it actually is?

My router runs pfsense and I have 6 VLANs each with its own subnet - Management, Trusted, IoT, Cameras, Guest, and Web Facing Servers.

Ah no wonder it’s experimental.

It’ll get there eventually.

Can you view an external library using your own folder structure and not in a timeline display? I was under the impression Immich can’t do that, at least not without manually creating them all as separate albums or by using a script.

Eg.

I have photos from the last 30 years stored in this type of folder structure:

2002

• 2002-06-23 Mum’s birthday party — 2002-06-23 Mum’s birthday party-0001.TIF

I’m less interested in using it for photo backup since I’d prefer not to use an automated tool since I curate everything in my library so that it stays organised - I’m looking for something for viewing/displaying and sharing.

One feature that I hope that Immich adopts is to allow for external libraries to be displayed in an existing folder structure. There’s no built-in way to do this and requires a script that uses albums as a workaround. A lot of photographers have organised folders by date/event that span years/decades, so it’s not practical to create these manually with albums.

The closest I’ve found is a cron script which does album generation automatically, but it’s not a ‘future proof’ solution since it could stop working at any time.

Memories (Nextcloud), Photoprism, and Photoview can do this.

Ah! Good to know! I haven’t touched my Mac client sync settings in a while so I’ll check this out.

I’d get a taxi if there was surge pricing in effect.

Downvoted for preferring a lower cost option when available in a cost of living crisis. Ah well.

Looks like that feature is still in beta and therefore only available in the beta client. The stable release still uses the .nextcloud extension workaround.

I hated Universe when it first came out, but I gave it a proper go last year and really loved it. The Battlestar Galactica comparisons are valid, but still great in its own right.

Is that still the case for the Nextcloud macOS client? Because this post from the devs from a few months ago implies that the .nextcloud file extension behaviour is temporary and that they’re meant to be using Apple’s File Provider API, same way that Dropbox and OneDrive do.

Syncthing doesn’t have an ‘files on demand’ feature though. The way that cloud storage providers do it is by having placeholder files which are selectively synced. Resilio Sync can do it, although it does change the file extension for the placeholder files to .rslsync temporarily.
