@petko These seem like valid bugs, plus they are offering to pay someone to fix them.

@forteller The simplest option is a sync app connected via SFTP or SMB, a quick search in F-Droid shows 'Round Sync' as a potential option. Nothing to install on your PC this way.

The other option is Immich, it's more of a full photo management server you would install on your PC or a local always-on server, but the mobile app has auto-backup that works really well, and it gives you more functions like albums, face recognition, search, etc..

I do not recommend Syncthing as it cannot easily do one-way sync while also not syncing deletions, which is typically how people want photo sync/backup to function. And the mobile app doesn't often work well and can cause high battery drain in my experience.

@delegatevoid It's a pretty big learning curve, as it works in a very different way from Lightroom, and the 'flow' I find very confusing.

But it can replace most of Lightroom.

@patnat @latenightlinux Have you been able to self-host it? I know it's a work in progress, I wasn't able to pull the fluxer-server docker image successfully, I assumed it just wasn't quite ready yet..
@rachel Pinchflat is what I use, it works great. I don't think a development pause is a big deal for something like this.
@openrightsgroup I don't think changing your IP is going to do much of anything to confuse online advertisers, given that they track you via cookies and browser fingerprint. IPs change all the time on most peoples internet connections, so tracking via IP isn't very useful.
@RachelThornSub Photopea (https://www.photopea.com/) has an 'object selection' tool that seems to work reasonably well. Not a native linux app, but instead just runs in your browser.

@jamesthebard NFS is just horrible in general, I've never had good luck with it, always performance or other odd issues.

For copying docker volumes they are in /var/lib/docker/volumes by default and you can tar that whole directory and copy to the new host.

@xavi92 This looks neat, but no mobile client it seems? I've heard XMPP struggles with message history (ie; joining as a new user and wanting to see old messages), have you found that to be the case?
@Flaky I've had that happen if windows didn't shut down cleanly or was hibernated instead of shutdown.
