The only thing holding me back with Immich has been the non-obvious back end storage options.

I'd like to keep my data in an S3 bucket, but from what I can tell it's still unsupported because of some limitations with fuse.

Just a question - are you considering AWS unlimited S3 storage where you pay-as-you-use?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes. I want to put it into cloud storage that I control and can move around as required, so that I can't run out of space. And so that I don't need to manage a local physical drive.

i semi-agree. i added a feature request explicitly asking for that in the really early days of the project.

What i REALLY want from the project is adding to the 3-2-1 type of backup strategy. I want it to also store a backup in an external system. something like local filesystem like it is now, then have a versioned type of backup in an S3 compatible buckets (backblaze B2??). something like a simple borg backup or other incremental backup system.

since it talks a lot about backup of photos, i dont really see it is a backup solution.

note: i LOVE immich

I think I'll have to do this myself, separately.
