This sounds more like a coordinated attack on matrix to ruin the system/ reputation/ joy

beta_tester , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in What is your prefered way to get audiobooks/podcasts/ebooks for your audiobookshelf?

Ripping childrens audiobooks from youtube with ylt-dlp is my least favorite because uploaders upload trash a lot, i.e. they let it repeat two times or even more often within one video.

I prefer subscribing to podcasts and downloading audiobooks via the usual means. There's also good stuff on deezer which is very convenient.

beta_tester , 5 months ago to Privacy in A good, privacy respecting and FOSS PDF viewer for Android?

It works, you can view pdfs but compared to mupdf or mj pdf it's still behind. It may be a tiny bit more secure, so if you are a target who needs to open a pdf from an untrusted source, you may prefer gospdf, everyone else can use something else

Initially I wanted to include the app as well but somehow I didn't. If facebook would open its source code for the app, it doesn't mean that you could build it and use it that way without additional keys and facebook wouldn't want that which would mean they still publish an app you don't know the exact source code of.

Even if they open the source code, the server can run something different

beta_tester , 5 months ago to Privacy in the encryption keys, why can't the government just sneak on them?

Yes, if the government has the key, they can read it. Otherwise spying of the NSA would be a little tricky. I'm no pro in this regard but doesn't the gov/ NSA has a special API to access data of the big companies?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security#Description describes it very well

beta_tester , 5 months ago to Privacy in How bad is Idea of .Zip as password manager?

You can develop apps in a text editor. We don't do it because we've got better tools. Text editor work but developer focused IDE's work much better and are very convenient.

it may encrypt your password but using kdbx files are much more convenient, efficient, etc.

1. Just use a subdomain. I wouldn't bother too much about this. It works. Just create immich.yourdomain.com in your reverse proxy service and bookmark it. Everytime you type immich, it'll be the first result, if not look into your browser settings and disable crap that is prefered to your bookmarks.
2. On mobile you login once and that's it. Save the email and password in your password manager, that'll fill it automatically. Bitwarden and protonpass work perfectly fine

I'll keep your feedback in mind, thanks for that.

What's base url? Do you want to access immich via path? I.e. yourdomain.com/immich ?

Immich supports subdomains immich.ourdomain.com

Just auth via name password?

4. not yet implemented

5. podman/ docker is enough. Why on bare metal? Implementing the breaking changes would be a pain on bare metal

6. not yet implemented

7. if you ise the cli import it works. It's just not perfect. Immich is in it's infancy.

There isn't much we can do, only

• donations, it has to be well funded to become wonderful very quickly.
• using it
• star it on github
• reporting bugs
• spreading the word
  • sharing albums with friends
  • talking with strangers on the internet and help them solve the problems

beta_tester , 5 months ago to Selfhosted in vpn on nextcloud?

I'd use a free dynamic dns hoster

You can get SSL easily with ngninx proxy manager and letsencrypt

Easy setup with podman or docker compose nextcloud
