Comment on Immich 2.1 Released with Better Slideshow Shuffle, New Notifications
Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks agoI run Immich in a VM on Proxmox which gets backed up every 12 hours and all my photos are on the NAS which gets snapshotted every 12 hours and pushed to an external drive and a Hetzner box.

Translation: “I run immich in a virtual machine, which I can manage from a web browser. The photos themselves are stored on a different device which gets backed up to a remote location twice a day.”
So why run immich in a virtual machine instead of in, say, a docker? Wouldn’t that be way less overhead? (Or is immich the only thing you’re hosting?)

I have a docker VM with a gpu passed through/external access and another docker VM on another machine with no passthrough/external access. So both VMs are running multiple stacks/services. Storage and memory are cheap imo and it’s the most secure way to do it with the skill level i have so it’s how i run it. I’m sure there’s better ways but 🤷♂️
