  It took me a week suffering to get syncthing to work but it finally did. Thank you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low usage power saving recommendations request?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Right now I’m turning it over night but during the day I find that I might use it one day a few times and another day not at all. Wake up on demand would be great, I’m worried about the wear from doing it like 3-4 times a day

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low usage power saving recommendations request?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s impressive! I have less everything, how can I know how much it takes while idle? External device?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low usage power saving recommendations request?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t mind the wait, I’m however worried about the wear from doing that a few times a day

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Low usage power saving recommendations request?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s a great idea that I haven’t thought about, but I’m using couple of apps to view and the network thing is less convenient albeit attractive solution that I might look into. Thank you

  Fossify Calendar

  How to use it with Baikal, I enabled CalDav but I can only see local and gmail calendars.

  What clients would you recommend with it?

  Why do you think Nextcloud would be too much for you?

  I had the idea that I had to install the whole solution

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Calendar and To Do solution do you recommend?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that may be what you’re asking for

  Yes, would be great if I have my day view. Problem is Nextcloud is way too much for my needs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Calendar and To Do solution do you recommend?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was thinking about that but I think Nextcloud is a bit too much for my needs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah yes that just downed on me today, I need to figure out how to only copy new items

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not sure how you’d automate deleting stuff while making sure you’re not deleting items that haven’t been sent yet Yeah this will be very tricky, I’m thinking if I got over the initial push to Immich, I just delete manually from my phone when I see things have already moved to Immich and I don’t need it anymore.

  Another good practice (at least I’d like to think so), my syncthing-int which sends everything to /photo_libraries also sends everything to two other backup folders that are pinned to separate discs. So if I have a drive failure or multiple drive failures I’d still have a copy of all the photos/albums.

  I will do that to ensure I’ve backed everything up somewhere in case an Immich Failure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you so much, perfect explanation.

  Do you keep the stuff on your phone then? how does syncthing handles deleting if you’re deleting?

  I’m working on setting it up for me to do so:

  1. Manually move some pics on my phone to “Inbox” folder (To be sorted in albums later)
  2. Syncthing will automatically sync “Inbox” and “Camera” folders to "Syncthing Consume"
  3. A job to copy from “Syncthing Consume” to "Immich Consume"
  4. Immich Go will move everything to Immich
  5. Anything in the Inbox Album will get sorted to different albums at some point
  6. Eventually anything that isn’t synced will be removed from my phone
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I just noticed something else that is mildly annoying, after I move them to album I have to run the template migration job to move to the correct folder.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you tell me about the syncthing set up, how do you have the folders set up to sync?

  for instance I have DCIM with folders inside it, do you sync the whole folder or for each folder inside it like “Camera, Screenshot” etc?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My problem is that external libraries are readonly

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you for the suggestion, they seem to be readonly, I was hoping I could delete/rename photos using them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Although, it will try to upload all photos every time

  I will use the argument which makes it delete after upload, this way if it wasn’t deleted then it wasn’t uploaded and needs to be uploaded, hopefully the CLI is smart to do so.

  I want it to use the folder name as album name, I was hoping that it would do the same for nested folders

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you. First person to not advise me to use something other than immich for this. And thanks for the heads up about the CLI, can you share the upload script?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  (except I manually sort through my photos on a semi-weekly basis before I upload it to Immich).

  I think that would be a better approach if I weren’t very lazy, I think even after the initial run I could do that since I don’t take lots of pictures but I was thinking about a fire and forget sort of thing.

  If you want, I can cook up a little Python script you could stick into Cron to do all the tasks you described.

  Thank you so much, I asked ChatGPT and it generated the bat file below (since I’m using Windows) do you think this would work?

  @echo off
  REM Change directory to your photos folder
  cd /d "C:\path\to\your\photos\folder"
  
  REM Sync files to backup folder
  robocopy . "C:\path\to\your\Camera_Backup" /mir /xo
  
  REM Delete files older than 15 days
  forfiles /p "C:\path\to\your\photos\folder" /s /m *.* /d -15 /c "cmd /c if @isdir==FALSE del @file"
  
  REM Upload assets using immich cli
  immich upload "C:\path\to\your\Camera_Backup" -r -a --delete

  can you recommend me something else?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh that might be perfect. I will look into it, thank you!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I will make sure that this doesn’t exist first before requesting a feature, thanks for the tip

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  More or less yes. Except that the auto upload is limited I can’t figure out why most of albums aren’t showing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I want to use immich mostly for viewing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can’t login to Syncthing GUI with Ngnix Proxy Manager⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I managed to get it to work finally, I disabled these Cache Assets, Block Common Exploits, Websockets Support.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would this flow work with Immich & Syncthing to copy images and auto upload and delete?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t want to manually upload pictures, I want new photos to be uploaded to Immich automatically and deleted from my phone after 30 days.

  Also the Immich backup on android is very limited, I can’t find all folders in the list it’s giving me
