Hi all,
For all people awaiting for an LXC to self host Immich the time has come. The LXC came up a month ago, sorry if it’s a repost.
For those like me still learning.
Linux Containers (LXC) is an operating system-level virtualization method for running multiple isolated Linux systems (containers) on a control host using a single Linux kernel.
They’re super useful when running Proxmox. You can create an LXC container and have it booted to a shell in under a minute

Rhel5 on a VM booted in under a minute easily. Rhel6 on a VM booted in around a minute. Rhel7 on a VM booted in almost a minute, and the trend accelerated from there. Wow, is RhelX a piece for its frail-boat booting.
The key is the monolith.
Thank you! A much needed info
Know what you’re running when you pipe to a bash script. Curl-bash pipes are a security mess.
I created a little proof of concept last year to highlight some of the risks https://stoppip.ing/

Security mess? Red flag. Avoid.
New to me, thank you!
What’s the licensing situation with Immich? Is it still “unlimited trial period”?
Its 100% free with a totally optional donation. Appreciate there’s been a lot of concern about their partnering with FUTO, but I checked heavily into it and I’m comfortable there won’t be a rug pull.
It’s still AGPL afaik
EDIT:
This project is available under GNU AGPL v3 license.
Still is
I read a lot of good things about LXC and how it was better for such things when I was starting my selfhosting journey an year or so ago. Immich was my need of the hour but I could not find any tutorials to get it done back then and now I know why. Being good and being accessible for noobs are two different things.
