Welcome to the first Immich release of 2024, v1.92.0. This release is packed with features, bug fixes, and improvements. Let’s dive into some of the highlights of this release.
[BREAKING CHANGE] The welcome message for your instance is now moved to the Server Setting in the Settings section in the Administration page on the web
Hardening storage template move operation: verify files are copied correctly when operating across filesystem boundaries
External domain setting: allow the usage of a different domain for shared links
Native hash calculation on iOS: significantly speeds up the initial hash calculation
Introduce Onboarding flow for new instances: Show the admin common settings of the instance for a better user experience.
I usually interpret the phrase “drop in” to mean that the replacement being referenced will also work with everything written for the original. Does “drop in” in this case mean that Immich will transparently replace Google Photos, similar to how libretube replaces YouTube? That would be amazing!
It’s undergoing massive development, it basically went from nothing to nearly full featured in two years.
The breaking change just means you need to actually do something before updating. The software isn’t quite ready to be put on auto-update yet. Honestly the way the devs aren’t afraid to break things I think has contributed to the fast development.
Just be sure to keep a secondary backup of your photos which you should do either way.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

I really look forward to spin this up tomorrow. Awesome release as always!

For all who have no clue what it’s for (like me 5 minutes ago), it’s a “self-hosted photo and video backup solution”.
It’s really amazing, it’s a drop in replacement for Google Photos and the like with good mobile apps, face/object recognition, etc.

“Drop in” as in “You can drop this in your Home Screen where Google Photos used to be and notice very little functional difference.”
That’s not what drop in means…
Constructively speaking, when I see this in almost every change log, it scares me away. :)
[BREAKING CHANGE]
But I will check it out sometime this week or next. :)
