Can you not just setup an nginx reverse proxy at the network edge to handle the ssl for the domain(s) and not have to worry about the app itself being setup for it? That’s how I’ve always managed all software personal or professional
- Comment on Immich Is Now Stable! 1 week ago:
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

I use a towel twice. Once then hang to dry use again then done. I find if i try to hang to dry again it either doesn’t quite dry by the next day or just has a kinda bleh texture i don’t enjoy, not soft anymore. So 2 uses it is

You would be shocked how bad most people are at cleaning themselves. They think just being under running water is enough or only wash upper with soap and the “rest runs down and gets washed”
Been washing my balls n ass since junior high and guys would look at me like I’m insane when i mentioned i shampoo downstairs, is how i came to find out most of them don’t even do basic soap let alone scrub down there
- Comment on Rybbit - Open source Google Analytics replacement 2 weeks ago:
In its default state i think thats fair. Example docker bypasses most firewalls as it runs before iptables rules process. So if you don’t either use 127.0.0.1:port:port (many compose files offered by projects do not do this) or add specialized iptables rules to fix that up you can end up directly exposing services with meaning to or even realizing.
And yeah privilege escalation etc. There are solutions like what you mentioned but it can be a lot of work to set all that up so most people won’t
- Comment on Is self-hosting becoming too gatekept by power users? 3 weeks ago:
There is literally a thread somewhere on my Lemmy I need to try and find just recently that shows this perfectly. Someone made a thread asking how they can self host their images for backup from their phone and naturally everyone pointed them to immich. And they immediately started complaining and bitching that they could not access it from outside their local network. Instead of asking how to fix that they were like what the hell is the point if I have to be on the same Wi-Fi this is stupid. And they basically did not want to engage with the people being like hey you need to either make a reverse proxy or open a port on your router. They should not be self hosting
- Comment on Where do I even start? 4 weeks ago:
You need to open a port on your router for it to be accessible from the outside world (example your phone on LTE or a different wifi) , this is not a limitation of the software but a security feature of your router
- Comment on Where do I even start? 4 weeks ago:
To be fair until very recently immich would have been a horrible recommendation for someone that is completely new to self hosting because almost every other update was a breaking change that required you to carefully read before updating.
And even if you tried if your installation was old enough eventually your compose file would Drift Away from what main line was and you basically had to seek the help of the developers to fix it up.
It only just recently released what is supposed to be the stable line that should hopefully no longer need these large breaking changes

If chess can be a mental sport there’s no way in hell that Starcraft isn’t. The mindgames and insane amount of instant control and choice making is crazy. Sure professional chess players attempt to go as quickly as possible but they could take their time if they wanted in Starcraft a fraction of a second can be the difference between winning or losing in a battle that you are controlling hundreds of variables
- Comment on Plasma 6.5 is out! Look forward to lots cool stuff 1 month ago:
I never said it wasn’t a counterpoint, I never said it was wrong, I was just responding to your feeling that it’s cluttered and unfocused. Those are the very aspects that make me enjoy it and are the reason I don’t really like gnome. Focused only works if you happen to agree with the focus that was chosen and I’m very glad that the chosen one of gnome works for you.
But that freedom flexibility that comes with the unfocused nature of plasma is exactly what makes me love it. You are correct that it is absolutely attempting to cater to Windows users in its default configuration the idea is for it to be a simple close to Windows default so that they can more easily acclimate themselves to a different operating system. It’s why it’s so often recommended to people who are switching trying to put them on gnome where literally nothing works like what they are used to is setting them up for failure in many cases.
But it then also gives you the power to customize once you are more comfortable to the point that you can just basically practically make a gnome workflow clone if you wanted. Or OSX, tiled, whatever you want really. But it is true that that means there’s no really unified workflow within plasma so I can see how it looks cluttered and unfocused
- Comment on Better safe than sorry 1 month ago:
You really can’t glean the information just by looking at it if you’ve literally never seen one before in your life. It’s hard to Envision if you’re just used to it, like I said I was a little slow to read it but I still know how I’m just not used to it so it’s no longer instant . But I also can understand that if you’ve literally never seen one in your life and never had it mentioned to you you would really have no way to know what the difference between the big or the small hand was.
Now if you did sit and stare at it for long enough you could eventually figure it out as the hands moved but most people aren’t going to sit there and stare at a clock for 10min to try and figure it out.
At the end of the day even mundane things can be a skill, and I do agree that there is a substantial lack of critical thinking as the generations go on it was a problem already in my generation much less these latest ones. All That No Child Left Behind and standardized testing crap really destroyed schools hard it went from critical thinking to just memorize the answer or skip the question if you don’t know, asking questions became bad and unfortunately that’s going to follow you into adulthood

There is many reasons it happened but not being able to read analog clocks was not one of them. I’m sorry that it upsets you so much that I don’t agree but I feel like there’s a better way to express it than what you chose.
- Comment on Better safe than sorry 1 month ago:
I genuinely don’t know where I would even find an analog clock anymore outside of school and I haven’t been in school for more than 20 years. genuinely do not remember the last time I’ve seen an analog clock, and I work in a lot of public government offices who are usually pretty far behind the times but even they use digital clocks. to the point that I just went to look had a picture of one and it actually takes me a second to read now.
I don’t understand why people are so obsessed on holding on to knowledge that is not relevant to your daily life, digital clocks are objectively better at the task of telling the time and it’s what exists everywhere in life now I don’t really fault anyone for not being able to read an analog.
- Comment on Plasma 6.5 is out! Look forward to lots cool stuff 1 month ago:
Gnome is either a you love it as it is or you just hate it there is no in between because there’s no customizability. I love KDE plasma because of all its million options that usually put gnome users off. I don’t want my desktop to be exactly like everyone else’s I have a particular way I want things laid out a particular spot I want options particular things I want shown particular things I don’t want shown.
The lack of notification app tray on gnome alone puts me off, the full screen app drawer is another. I don’t want that on my desktop it’s not a tablet. I don’t find it enjoyable to use on my large desktop screen with a mouse.
On KDE, if I don’t like something with the default configuration there’s a 95% chance that I can change it to something that I would like. On gnome i get to either pound sand or install an extension that will probably break on the next update.
And that’s fine we don’t have to agree with one another that’s the glory of Linux and user choice
- Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 1 month ago:
The heck are you talking about. My tuft and needle mint WITH the added cost of extra pillows and a sheet set wasn’t even a full $2000 it’s one of the best mattresses I’ve ever seen in my life I’ve had it for like 5 years now and there’s still zero indication of any type of settling or imprinting on the foam, it’s the perfect mix of firm supportive but comfortable and shape fitting. And every time I’ve seen a bed more expensive than that it’s felt terrible and basically just been about buying the brand name or some stupid exotic material it’s made of

That seems to be the trend in the industry a lot for some reason at the moment. The shows that are just like complete garbage are getting season after season and the actual good shows that practically everyone is begging for another season of just die quietly.
- Comment on Proton Mail Suspended Journalist Accounts at Request of Cybersecurity Agency 2 months ago:
Anyone who genuinely thought that privacy was going to be perfect was an idiot. But they’re going to be better than Gmail and they are. The only way to achieve any type of true privacy would be to start up your own Data Center , run your own email , and then be the one that’s dealing with the government knocking on your door. Have fun with that.
Put frankly privacy on the internet does not exist and anyone that thinks it’s achievable on the modern internet is honestly an idiot. We can only select the least shitty option there is no good option. And the problem is even that is a moving Target I’m not going to keep changing my email provider every couple years to whatever the new current popular privacy option is.

- Comment on Reminder if you're leaving Discord for this Revolt server ( Linux + Steam Deck devs / creators) 7 months ago:
There is a single standard with no forks, I said not a single one followed. I run my own Matrix Home Server and use it frequently, there are a lot of different clients and there are a good number of them that do run their own features that are not exactly in Spec because one does not yet exist in the official spec. Stickers used to be a good example of that I remember when there were like three different clients Each of which implemented them in a different weird way until the spec finally landed on an implementation.
And even within this back there are some basic features not supported on certain clients and other such problems. I’m just saying it’s not an alternative to Discord and it will never be mainstream because it’s too confusing and frustrating from the perspective of a standard user.
Same concept that made bluesky get popular over mastodon, trying to find anything on Mastodon of interest is a chore because there’s no real Central spot to do everything the very nature of it is that it’s scattered to the winds, there’s also multiple apps available for Mobile on Mastodon Each of which have different layouts, different features, and normal people that just want to be able to find their topic of Interest can’t be bothered to deal with that
