Don't Let Apple & Google Harvest Your Photos, Use Immich to Self-Host Your Own Cloud!

Your photos are precious and personal. Why not protect your privacy by safeguarding them with your own private cloud? Immich is the perfect replacement for iCloud and Google Photos. It has ‘close’ feature parity, is mobile native, and is really simple to configure.

Let me talk you through it’s features and show you how to deploy it, including a walkthrough of the mobile app. We’ll use Docker with GPU passthrough to accelerate transcoding in Proxmox.
