Nice thanks for sharing. I’m thinking of doing something similar but to Hetzner (it’s dit cheap)

Would just need to figure out encryption

It’s a “Democracy” where you can only choose one of two parties.

Both of which suck. One clearly more than the other, but your only two options are terrible.

Use and support open source where ever possible

I’ve been using Only Office, it’s great. I see no need to use MS Office

The two party system is cooked.

Nothing will get better till the two party system is a thing of the past.

Do you have backups in place if your house burns down?

That’s the problem I’m looking to solve for myself right now.

(I tried this for a month and loved it, decided to then host myself)

The not lazy route is to host Nextcloud yourself, but because it’s important thigns like your family photos, you need to be sure your backups are solid.

Nice!! Happy you found a easy performance improvement

I’d want to give Immich read only rights, would need to see if that is possible.

Nice, Another powerful feature admins can use if they want.

Wish there was a tl;dr

I think that’s overkill, he already knows how to drive.

He just needs to learn how to use the clutch. A few YouTube videos, and a few hours of practice getting used to the clutch and he should be good
