Backing up photos and videos from an Android phone? (lemmy.ml)

There are solutions like ente and immich but I think they both are pretty overkill for my use case. I almost never look through my old photos so I don't need an app and a web UI or whatever. The face detection thing does not entice me either. I don't need encryption either.

Is there a simpler solution for this? I am thinking of just writing a script that syncs the camera folder using adb or something like that. But before I create a jank monstrosity I thought it would be better to ask around.

The shameful answer is that the most convenient method of setting up immich is a docker compose stack but I have podman installed instead.

Well there more than one solution, if you want it. First of all, podman actually works fine with docker compose files. There may be some adjustments needed in other places, because despite the claim of being "a drop in docker replacement", it just isn't (quite). So assuming you install docker compose (not docker), you can just "docker-compose up" (note the dash) and it should work. Should.

Your can also just spin up a VM and install docker with compose in there, just for testing and/or running immich.
