    Lol - Immich is one of those stacks that I let Watchtower auto-upgrade. I don’t consider it mission critical if it breaks and it takes me a day or so to notice it (all my photos and videos are also backed up using Syncthing).

    I’ve gotten used to just going to the repo if the error message for the container doesn’t immediately lead me to the fix.

      Immich has breaking changes too often, so I disabled auto updates for the server and phone app. Updating every few months with backup beforehand is a good tradeoff for something as important as images.

      Reading patch notes is especially important with some Immich releases requiring minor admin intervention, e.g. running an extract metadata job.

        Each to their own. Immich devs themselves strongly recommend not relying on Immich as a backup solution.

        I don’t, therefore I don’t consider it critical enough to worry about.
