My family relies on OCR to find documents anyways. So of I’m gone, they could just upload it to onedrive or something similar and search that way

It only does a backup of media folder in paperless, so its not organizes in a meaningful way. But I never organize my documents anyways.

Every couple months when I do server patching I run a script that downloads our immich library, paperless documents and bitwarden backups to an external hard drive. Then I put the drive in my gun safe. She knows where it is. After that she is on her own. Everything else isn’t important and she will be just fine.

Any concerns you that you may attract attention to your network? I’m interested in doing the same thing you are.

I actually have an interest in doing this as well. One concern though. Wouldn’t standing up a Lemmy instance on you own network and federating potentially attract unwanted attention to your IP? Would it be better to host on a VPS instead?
