What does the $100 server key unlock (besides "supporter status"), since features aren't paywalled?
Nothing. Just helps pay for development.
Oh, so... 100% worth every penny, then. Finally, a software cost with actual benefits.
Edit. It sounds sarcastic, but I'm being serious.
As we're committed not to add paywalls, this purchase will not grant you any additional features in Immich. We rely on users like you to support Immich's ongoing development.
I read that. (I literally mentioned features not being paywalled in the original comment.)
If the key doesn't unlock features, what does it unlock?
Do you get a little thank you message from the devs when you enter it in? Does it add a "Supporter" tag next to your name on the app settings?
The practice exists in both software and games of adding paid cosmetics (e.g. Discord or Deep Rock Galactic) that don't change the core featureset but allow users to pay more to support the developers, so I think it's a valid question.
Bragging rights and improved sleeping ability from the knowledge that the devs are being supported.
The serious answer is it's often easier for people in a company to buy a license key than it is for them to arrange a donation to the devs. So this is an easy way to make small donations.
Good vibes only
It's a donation that is deceptively framed in my opinion, bit of a dark pattern, but the product is fully open source so most give it a pass.
does immich have an option to automatically delete older, backed-up pics from devices in order to free up space and not worry about running out disk space on smartphone?
I tried to search the docs and it seems it's missing
it's wip, they are iterating it
i think they added it as beta, then reverted, then now is being reworked
I've not seen that option, but I use syncthing instead of the phone application to sync my photos to a specific folder on my NAS which is then an external library for Immich.
TBH, I don't want anything deleting anything automatically.
I'll often delete newer pictures of temporary stuff but keep older pictures of my frinds & family, so, that's not a feature I'd see any value in. It tends to just make me lazy and build up GBs of junk photos on my NAS (and backups...)
That sounds like a great solution to my current frustration that the autobackup feature of Immich on iOS is so opaque. It only works when the app is open and even then oftentimes you're just staring at the backup screen while seemingly nothing is happening, despite Immich's backlog of thousands of photos still needing to be uploaded.
No but there is a semi work around.
When using the app if you select all images one of your options will be delete from device when you click on that it will say hey some of these might not be backed up and one of your option is to only delete the things that have been backed up. It's not automatic but it is a way you can kind of just Mass do it to everything

That video was… something…
Anyway I love Immich. It’s definitely been on a stable release for a bit, but I think they’re just trying to get the word out. A lot of people seem to think it’s still in alpha.
Personally, I’ve been running the same Immich server for years now, rolling all the way up to the current release and I’ve never had any data loss. I just had to read the patch notes and adjust my docker compose accordingly a couple times.
It’s well worth paying for that supporter badge, btw. I’ve easily gotten more than $100 value out of it.
It really was!
The presentation is quite funny, I wonder wha-
AI
Welp. I'm out.
I know we all hate AI, but we're actually angry at generative LLMs. The kind of "AI" that Immich uses is a classifier and is absolutely not the same as ChatGPT.
They should have made this clear in their video.
Their usage is basically just the same old machine learning that's existed for ages, long before the genAI bubble started. They really should avoid the buzzword for accuracy's sake but it's far removed from all the LLM generative dogshit.
This is an excellent clarification, thanks.
Fuck LLMs, though.
I know we all hate AI
Not everybody.
That was my understanding, that Immich and PaperlessNGX run AI locally on your machine. That's why the server PC sounds like a fighter jet ready to take off for hours on end when a large library is first added.
The AI is just image and object recognition and tagging. It’s very powerful (even runs on CPU in docker) and useful. No LLMs here.
People need to learn the different between (AI) LLM and the AI workhorses known as Machine Learning that have been doing the real heavy lifting for decades.
Okay, you're missing out on one of the best new self hosted services because of a knee jerk reaction in that case.
Futo's CEO being a alt right piece of shit is a better reason.
To my knowledge the Immich devs arent, but yeah.
It's classification AI not generative AI. Basically smart tagging. And it's optional. Super helpful though and runs locally on your machine.
Immich's use of AI is arguably one of the most suitable cases for the technology and it runs entirely on your own device. I get the hate for AI but this ain't it
Look I hate AI as much as the next guy and I have it enabled in my Immich instance. It's been really handy.
It still doesn't do chunked uploads, right? For who has a low memory proxy or uses cloudflare
Wasn’t it stable like a month ago?
Checking out the road map, nothings changed in a hot second. I think they're just trying to spread the word about it in general
Yes
