I’m still figuring it out. But at the very least, my SO and I both have phones with the Immich app, and auto sync our photos folders to it, and we can both see all of the photos that have been synced.

Syncing to all of my household’s phones was one of my main requirements. So far its working, maybe its been recently updated.

In my mobile app, I can select a photo > edit > crop, and get rotate options there. Does that do what you’re looking for? I can’t confirm right now since I’m not home and haven’t exposed it beyond my home network yet, and haven’t tried it from the web interface. I agree though, as I continue to use it, rotating will be a common use case and I’d hope it handles it gracefully.

Brand new Immich user here. Love the project and I hope it goes far!

Also maybe I’m not understanding, but the two complaints about it so far in this thread are not being able to sync photos to a phone and not being able to rotate photos and, I’m pretty sure I can do both?

The full quote:

I gave all my Apple wealth away because wealth and power are not what I live for. I have a lot of fun and happiness. I funded a lot of important museums and arts groups in San Jose, the city of my birth, and they named a street after me for being good. I now speak publicly and have risen to the top. I have no idea how much I have but after speaking for 20 years it might be $10M plus a couple of homes. I never look for any type of tax dodge. I earn money from my labor and pay something like 55% combined tax on it. I am the happiest person ever. Life to me was never about accomplishment, but about Happiness, which is Smiles minus Frowns. I developed these philosophies when I was 18-20 years old and I never sold out.

Honestly the primary reason is some specific device support, eg. my TV has a built in Plex app but not a Jellyfin app, so switching also probably involves new hardware. I also couldn’t get Jellyfin to work with another TV using Chromecast, but I’m getting rid of that anyway.

Otherwise, maybe you can update me on these since it’s been a few since I last tried Jellyfin, some of the things that come to mind are:

• Smart collections & playlists
• Skip intros and credits
• Overall slick UI

I still use Plex because I have a lifetime pass from many years ago and Jellyfin isn’t yet as feature-rich and accessible on all of my family’s devices.

I expect to someday migrate fully to Jellyfin once Plex is enshittified to the point is being a worse experience, but that hasn’t happened yet (with the Plex pass anyway)

I love writing code on the back of my monitor

It’s a fork of open source software. If only “line go up” didn’t have to be the way things worked they could have stopped developing features no one wants just to squeeze out profit, and sustained without enshittifying. Maybe.

I’ve never heard of the video game hall of fame, but unless they just made it’s and there’s only 4 games in it so far, there’s no excuse that Quake wasn’t already included.
