Where is Immich going to be in 1 year? What's your prediction?
-
Copying this from Reddit (I still get the daily emails). Since I no longer post there, I figured I would ask here, and include my prediction:
Will be more popular, possibly in stable release. Still won't be able to rotate photos natively.A more sophisticated query system would be interesting.
For example if I want to see every picture with Joseph in it, that's really easy. But what if I'd like to share those with Joseph along with the albums he's in?
Similar to that would be a query by location and person. Or a query that includes two people.

Just wanted to say that the team (especially Alex, the founder) are wonderful people and very dedicated to the project. When they don’t implement the features everyone wants, there is usually a very good reason, like security or architectural concerns.
The philosophy behind the project is also to do things slowly but right.I believe they continue focussing on robusness and bugfixing. A topic that we discussed a lot was e2e encryption. We really wanted to implement that, but it was very hard and back then would have compromised performance too much. I still think that e2e encryption will come at some point.

Just an idea: Maybe a simple photo editor would fit in nicely? Crop, rotate and adjust the colors/brightness/contrast.
And ... please let me rotate videos that are accidentally 90 degrees off.
I'm just learning about the software but all the tasks you listed (crop, rotate and adjust), can be done easily with imagemagick simple one-liners.
For example:
Convert in.jpg -rotate out.jpgOr
Using the auto-orient option or using jhead.
Why is it so hard for this app to implement it?

wrote last edited by [email protected]I know nothing about coding, but its probably not trivial in a project the size of immich to add "one simple one-liner".
Think of the Web UI, the mobile apps, the internal API, the filesystem handling, preview generation etc.
I'm sure it can be done, but it probably takes a couple of days.

That would be an insane amount of phone storage. I don't think a single available smart phone could sync an entire professional library of photos. Especially considering how large each photo is.
Could use folders per project. Come on.. you're still commenting on this ?

This issue closed as fixed but not fixed for me: https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/8216
That sounds like a very different thing though? Or you're saying you have two issues?

It'll be good if it can be decrypted by the device itself. Almost perfect security tbh

Does it not already have basic image editing? I can crop/rotate and apply some preset filters.

I disagree.
Yes, there is some editing capability in the app, but it doesn't edit the image, it stores a new file in your local (non-immich) gallery. As I don't sync this particular folder on my phone, I had to reupload it - and now have this image twice in immich, and one version with the wrong timestamp (now).
That's barely any more helpful than downloading the image and editing it with another app.

Yes, it seems that I copy/pasted a wrong link.
