  • I passed through twice, had to be in the Netherlands for work and while I was there my partner visited family in the UK. So we took a week off after and met in Brussels before going to Ghent and Bruges and back to Brussels before heading back to the UK.

    That first day we did wander and go to some of the sights (we aren’t very touristy) but really liked it. If you ever are back in the area, I highly recommend Ghent!








  • We aim to introduce additional paid services (not paywalled features, as we will never implement paywalled features), which will help support the project and that enhance self-hosting, making it easier and more reliable. First among the many services already planned is an end-to-end encrypted, off-site backup and restore feature, built directly into Immich. This will enable a buddy backup feature as well.

    I love this.

    Free features, but offering actual useful services for self-hosters (encrypted cloud backup). Great business model for a project like this.




  • This is flawed thinking. There is no “them” with a huge salary. The people making decisions are salaried or invested employees, and their livelihood depends on the stock regardless. There isn’t “one guy” that this hits, like it would with a salary, there’s thousands of investors which must be appeased.

    Also, it’s likely many of those canceling were people who didn’t use the service as much as power users, which means they’re losing the cheapest to maintain customers (industry insight, no research to back this up, to be clear).

    If we had boycotts and cancelations even a quarter this big across other media giants, our media would be a far better place.
