  • Photoprism is less “resource intensive” because it’s offloading face detection to a cloud service. There are also many who don’t like the arbitrary nature of which features photoprism paywalls behind its premium version.

    If you can get past immich’s initial face recognition and metadata extraction jobs, it’s a much more polished experience, but more importantly it aligns with your goal of getting out of the cloud.





  • I appreciate the reply, but I guess I wasn’t clear on what I was asking.

    It’s obvious who this is for in the literal sense, what I mean is: what is the use case for this?

    On the homelab front, I don’t see enough need to unify my GUI access, and i have roughly 30 containers to manage. At that point, most homelab admits gravitate to automation.

    On the professional front, I can tell you that unifying the keys to mgmt interfaces to critical infrastructure in a single app is not a welcome tool to see on my junior admin desktops. And if it’s simply the interface to mgmt portals without storing keys, then I would have my doubts about a junior admin who hasn’t developed a personal strategy to manage this themselves.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy to encourage you to develop this, but the second you write “trying to make a living from this”, you should know that these questions are coming.

    If I were across the table from you trying to understand what you’re selling me, I would want to know:

    • how do you handle secrets in transit and at rest?
    • can I deploy this once and set access for various departments or employees?
    • can I find out who has been using the tool?
    • how does the app handle updates?

    You can see where this is going. If in buy this tool for use by several people, I don’t want to have to wrap it in vault entries and update scripts just to meet compliance with my client’s environment.
