What is it?

Sorry but their prices are out of this world.

That’s why it’s exciting you can self host now

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

Yeah but self hosting comes with a lot of risks. You need to spend time to back up to another hard drive every now and then otherwise you're just risking your precious memories. I tried out immich (which is amazing btw, kudos to the dev) but it just doesn't feel dependable for the long term.

The price seems reasonable to me. It's competitive with VPS with comparable storage if you were to self-host it on a cloud provider.

Dirt cheap.

Cost = maintenance + servers

Engineers always underestimate the cost of their time.

Immich is better
