Thunder has local notifications and is completely free.

Personally I don’t trust myself with self-hosting something as important as photos. It would probably be fine, but I’m willing to pay for someone else to manage the infrastructure.

Very happy Ente user here! It’s a great alternative to Google Photos and Immich (since I think photos are too important to self-host).

They have an easy guide for migrating from Google Photos (basically they can import a Takeout export directly).

I’ve got it installed on my phone with automatic backups enabled. It had no issues with duplicates from both Takeout and the existing photos on my phone. (I even did the upload twice due to running out of space the first time, and there were no dupes). The app has a pretty similar design to Google Photos, so it feels familiar. It also supports Google’s version of “live photos”.

You can create links to share albums or individual photos, and you can also add people to your plan.

I enabled the local machine learning analysis and, while it’s not perfect, it does make for a pretty nice searching experience.

Not yet. They’re supposedly “working on it”. This is the feature I’m most looking forward to.

Whoa that’s cool! It works in Thunder!

It’s very optimistic to think people will be able to describe what they’re going to do before they do it. I find things rarely go exactly as planned and my commit messages usually include some nuance about my changes that I didn’t anticipate.

Got it! Are they renumbered chronologically? Like if my 11 was created before your 11, would yours be the one that’s renumbered?

Commit IDs are only local anyway.

Whay do you mean by that?

It can be encrypted…

Thanks!

Wow I almost forgot the original name! I was skeptical it would catch on, as name changes are very hard, but fortunately it was very early on and I bet a lot of other people have forgotten as well.

I don’t understand what this is, can you explain? Apologies if it’s obvious.

I run a “public” instance with basic auth so I can use it from anywhere (phone, work). I’ve made my instance my default search engine everywhere. (I know basic auth is not the most secure but I wouldn’t even really care it other people used my instance; I just don’t want it hammered.)

Make sure to put the word spoiler on the first line after the colons for it to get rendered correctly.

Cool!

How do you use SingleFile? As a personal archive? (Just curious!)

Just a reminder that there are tons more options like this (and this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to movie piracy).

I’ve been really impressed by Dart as a programming language. I’ll admit I don’t have a breadth of knowledge, but coming from C# I feel right at home, and it has a few extra neat tricks that C# is picking up in return (like empty list syntax and the spread operator).

Notice Linus doesn’t use tabs; he just thinks the parser shouldn’t die when it sees them.

I think most comments are missing the fact that you were using someone else’s Emby server and might not want to set up your own.

If that’s the case, you could look into a movie-web instance like https://sudo-flix.lol/. Check out the list of instances.

If you really want to be overwhelmed with options, take a look at the FMHY page.
