My supernote hasn’t advertised anything ( besides an occasional marketing email ): www.supernote.com

I also did it with this.
While you can change it afterwards, it might be worthwhile to check a setting in immich on how it organizes the photos on disk you upload.
I changed it to year/month/photo-id because I find it convenient, but it does not organized them like that for backups.
You can change it at a later date and run a job to “fix it”, but it might be worthwhile to set it up correctly from the start ( if this matters to you ). So no harm done if you change your mind later.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly (14 August 2026) 1 month ago:
I’m on board with this. It sucks and it makes things a lot easier to be able to have SSO.
But I’m also peeved the SSO tax is nearly always in the enterprise tier and never in the first paying tier. Even if you’d want to pay for it, the enterprise cost is usually a multitude in price with features you likely don’t need.
They just know companies have policies that enforce SSO for compliancy reasons and are forced to pay.
But as a self hoster the enterprise tier is even more disgustingly expensive.
But the open source projects we use and love also deserve contributions ( financially ). But as a self hosted there’s also a financial incentive to self host and not take everything as a SaaS ( besides the obvious take control of your data ).
- Comment on Auth apps 2 months ago:
The best is pretty subjective and partially relies on what you need.
Keycloak is one of the most feature complete ones I think.
I’ve used authelia before and liked it, but it had a very bare UI and everything was done through config files which forced redeploys on changes. It wasn’t ideal for me.
I’m currently trying out voidauth. It’s got some more Ui features compared to authelia and can apparently also simulate some Active Directory queries to forward your users to third party tools for provisioning ( unless I saw that wrong, I haven’t tested any yet ).
Authentik looked nice, but I haven’t gotten around to checking that one out yet.
- Comment on Whats a good alternative to Instagram? 2 months ago:
Signal used to do text messaging as well but they removed the feature. As they felt it was unclear when a message was fully encrypted ( signal message ) and when it wasnt ( text /RCS message ).
I don’t think there’s a privacy friendly chat app that also does RCS.

How do you mean merge?
It’s basically another messenger.
Signal is a great app to replace your messenger with. Keep in mind that it doesn’t save whatever media you post there in your gallery.
Matrix is another solution, but you’d have to self host that. I have no experience with it.
Threema is a swiss app which I think was pretty privacy respecting as well? It doesn’t use phone numbers either IIRC.
- Comment on My entire production website runs on a Raspberry Pi 4B + Orange Pi Zero 3 — real traffic, public dashboard, zero cloud 2 months ago:
How do you enforce consistent backups of the database? Do you dump the data periodically? Copying the data on the docker volume won’t give you consistent ( and possibly corrupted ) backups IIRC if the database itself isn’t stopped.

I’d rather not send credentials over plain text. Even in a homelab environment
