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.

This is an excellent idea.

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.
I use an app called Slidebox on iOS. Every Saturday I review the pictures I’ve taken with it and either swipe up to delete or send them to an album at the bottom, I only sync the sorted album with immich.
You don’t need to delete them entirely. You can convert a 5MB/22 megapixel JPEG to a 500KB/2 megapixel AVIF that looks 95% as good when viewed on a phone screen.
Of course, I have no idea if immich can do this. It would be nice though.
As an FYI to people who are upgrading and use a preexisting postgres database If you still use pgvecto.rs (if the command \dx on the immich database responds with vectors not vector) you will need to install both pgvector and vectorchord in order to continue using immich. This will require restarting your postgres instance at least once if not twice.
It threw me for a loop at first because of the similar naming. Just thought I would share.

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.

JXL is working alright for me.
As an example with a lot of dynamic range, here’s a JXL:
<img alt="JXL image should be here" src="https://litter.catbox.moe/yalwoafexu5czwq5.jxl">
AVIF:
<img alt="AVIF image should be here" src="https://litter.catbox.moe/0y8rp3s3rgyeh7z7.avif">
Both render in my desktop and iPhone browsers, just fine. I bet at least one renders for you. And I made them from RAWs from a really old camera!
The problem is, as you say… arbitrary lack of support. As an example, I can’t upload either file to Lemmy. Brand new social media software, and it doesnt’ recognize JXL or AVIF as valid image types, even though they should render just fine? Most image hosts wont take JXL either, hence I had to upload them to litterbox since catbox is down!
An HEIF, on the other hand, has basically 0 support outside of Apple:

Upgrade guide from Immich v2 - immich.app/blog/v3-migration.
My upgrade path was breaking by deployment a few weeks ago, seeing the v3 was around the corner and just starting again :)
Sad to see the I can’t make a workflow to add photos to an album based on face recognition. Wanted that you have a family album
That’s probably coming too. This is the first preview of the feature.
I was just thinking about this the other day: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/tree/main/docker
I definitely have not been checking for updates on the compose files on any of my self hosted apps… I probably should…
In all honesty, immich’s very opinionated way of doing a compose file gives me so many headaches compared to pretty much every other docker app I use.
I just updated last night to 2.7.5 ha
9/10
gamblersselfhostersquitupgrade right beforehitting the jackpota major version releaseI literally just updated mine two days ago 😂
Less than 24 hours here lol.
Ooh, the workflows idea is interesting.
What I really want is for my photos to expire.

As this is version 3.0.0, I’ll wait a bit before upgrading.
Wait for 3.0.3 and then the emergency 3.0.4. 😅
This is my thought also. v2.7.5 has been stable since April. I’m gonna stick with that for the moment.
LOL. Called it! 🤣
https://github.com/immich-app/immich/releases/tag/v3.0.1
Neat! Commenting so I’ll remember to revisit.
Have you seen the bookmark feature on lemmy?
Sounds like you should self-host Nextcloud with Tasks and Tasks.org on your phone. 😄
You mean run TaskWarrior and host a sync server, right?
Container-free yet? #slsa.dev

Why don’t they support Background Resource Upload PhotoKit API on iOS?
Nm: I know why now. Apple are such bitches.
What is it, restricted access? Am an Android user since 2008 and never had an iOS device so I’m clueless.
