It does work for many not listed, but no guarantees from the dev. And there are some sold where the firmware version blocks this path. But I have had success with six separate plugs and a dimmer. None were listed in the supported product numbers

I found this on github to activate tplink kasa plugs and switches to a local IP and never phone home. It swaps the internal server lookup, and allows you to Activate to your wifi SSID with no app https://github.com/jkbenaim/hs100

This is why I buy TpLink Kasa switches and plugs and use the hs100 code on github to activate them only to local server, so they never phone home to tplink servers.

I don’t know if tapo plugs are supported, but this git code lets you turn tplink kasa plugs into local server activated plugs so you don’t have to use tplink app for activation online. Then homeassistant is a great tool for control

Also worked on dimmable switches

Install Portainer, it helps you get used to managing docker images and containers before going full command line.

Syncthing is probably a good choice

Yes

It is honestly an awesone tool.

Where did the docs go?

Awesome, thanks for the link

Awesome, thanks for the link

Yep

Yes

That part I haven’t read up on

Breaking changes are scary for running solutions. it is why IT has a mandate of “Never touch a running system” (security patches only)

Immich is a younger, quickly evolving project, so new features or improvements may justify breaking the upgrade path. There may be folks that share data migration tips when that happens. It is why in corporate world we never want to be on the latest version of something; let the non critical data users find the problems.

Also you may have seen this on the project page. Basically use at own risk until things mature:

⚠️ The project is under very active development. Expect bugs and changes. Do not use it as the only way to store your photos and videos!

Nice

As an example in an engineering software it had been forward compatible for 30 years, recently they changed the datatypes for certain expressions: some expressions that could be number type now were restricted to integer. This broke every formula built off of that expression type in legacy data. ugg

I haven’t reviewed the changelog for this immich, but yes a breaking change typically means if you just went and updated you would have a broken system. sometimes something like you mentioned if a backend database is changed or db column attributes altered.

Those are good for sure. And maybe it was testdisk. There was one that just undeleted the partition table delete. as long as new data had not been written everthing would be intact

Unlesa you did a full zeroing format the info might still be available. There was an applicarion that attempts to rebuild the partition / Filesystem from left over meta data or inode info. I forget the name unfortunately. Normall the strings command will get your photos but probably not if they were in a docker image database.

Might be power. i had a 3.5 HDD external USB adapter with separate power plug. It would drop out under sustained use. Fix was providing higher amp power supply

A mess.

You can set what traffic goes across wireguard, either all of it, or only what is intended for the IP you are needing to connect to.
