Ooh, the workflows idea is interesting.
What I really want is for my photos to expire.
Most of the photos I take are junk photos: a picture of a receipt, a picture of a sprinkler model number, a picture of a random bug I saw while I was cleaning the pool. I just need these photos once and then I never need them again. I wish they would go away on their own.
Of course, there are also times when I do want to keep pictures, birthdays, vacations, etc.
I wish Immich (or someone) would create a camera with a switch that allows you to pre sort images into albums: permanent vs temporary
Of course, the Big Tech guys would never do this because they want you to store all of that junk on their clouds.
But, Immich could actually help trim junk.
In iOS there is an app called ShutterDeclutter that every day shows you the all photos you took on that day of the year in your collection and has a swipe left/right to delete or keep each one. It makes the job of reviewing photos manageable for people with multi decade long albums. I really want Immich to add that feature.
For Android there’s PhotoSwooper which works somewhat similar @uuj8za@piefed.social
As this is version 3.0.0, I’ll wait a bit before upgrading.
Yeah, even when jumping minor versions they tend to spend a few days/weeks pushing patches, I’ll wait a bit before updating.
They already pushed 3.0.1
LOL. Called it! 🤣
Wait for 3.0.3 and then the emergency 3.0.4. 😅
I updated and quickly found that phone wasn’t updating images. But then there was an update for the server and phone app very quickly.
What are workflows?
The first preview of Workflows is here! Workflows let you automate actions in your library by chaining triggers, filters, and actions together with a drag-and-drop builder. This is the foundation for many exciting automations to come, and we’d love your feedback as we continue building on it.
It’s a user-friendly way to say “when X happens, do Y”.
Why don’t they support Background Resource Upload PhotoKit API on iOS?
Nm: I know why now. Apple are such bitches.
The upgrade was pretty trivial from 2.7.5. Minimal changes in the docker compose file if your was up-to-date on 2.7.5. Mostly version changes. No changes needed to .env other than going to v3.
Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I’ve seen in this thread:

I just want it to not delete things of NFS goes down.
Edit: Also, manual steps for a containerized update are dumb. All these manual steps should be handled in migrations. I have started a discussion on this: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/discussions/29513
I just want it to not delete things of NFS goes down.
that’s a pretty bad flaw. mounts could disappear for many reasons, not only NFS but any kind of mount.
Yea, Iove Immich, but this almost got me. It moves them to trash unless the volume comes back in 30 days. If 30 days go by, you lose all metadata, scanned people, etc. I was out of town when it happened.
oh so it’s not a bug but a design decision. I don’t know whether that’s better or worse. maybe it could be patched…
Nice, in the process of backing up before upgrading my containers! :)
Does anyone know if chunked upload has been implemented? Vital for who’s behind cloudflare
All the HEIC files from my camera are still busted.
To be fair, its a tricky issue. Its camera makers’ fault for using a format no one else wants to touch, and rendering them as HDR files instead of SDR with gain maps, as is standard practice for smartphones.
…But still, its annoying. They render fine on my iPhone, on Windows, or KDE Linux, out of the box. But they’re completely garbled in Immich :(
I’ve really wanted to ditch JPEG. It’s a 34 year old format.
The problem is that AVIF, JPEG-XL and HEIC/HEIF don’t work in many places. At a minimum I would want them to display in my gallery app (currently Nextcloud memories), display in a browser, and have native support at an OS level (i.e thumbnail previews). Neither format comes close to this.
I may even move away from Nextcloud over it. I didn’t want to deploy docker just for immich (I love LAMP, btw). However Nextcloud is SO MUCH maintenance compared to the 50 other services running on my server.
At a minimum I would want them to display in my gallery app (currently Nextcloud memories), display in a browser,
there’s a new push to support JPEG-XL in Firefox. it got a labs toggle recently so you can enable it for yourself. I think chrome has done something too.
and have native support at an OS level (i.e thumbnail previews). Neither format comes close to this.
what OS do you use? KDE flavoured linux handles it fine. probably not KDE specific though.
I saw the JXL article recently. It’s good progress. Didn’t a major browser remove JXL support after it was added?
I’m on Ubuntu gnome. I think the biggest outlier was LibreOffice, which didn’t support any modern formats.
Didn’t a major browser remove JXL support after it was added?
yes, chrome, a few years ago. google wanted to push its own inferior format
I think the biggest outlier was LibreOffice, which didn’t support any modern formats.
that’s possible it does not use the system libraries for that. but the system file manager and system gallery app should support it, and anything that uses the same libs
Quick question – why’s the official Docker compose using a PostgreSQL image four versions out of date? I’m running postgres:18 everywhere else, these days.
https://github.com/immich-app/immich/releases/latest/download/docker-compose.yml
database: container_name: immich_postgres image: ghcr.io/immich-app/postgres:14-vectorchord0.4.3-pgvectors0.2.0It uses an unusual PostgreSQL extension. Maybe an update is not that trivial.
