I don't think it would've been an issue if they just put a warning in the getting started section in the docs (or if they just have secure defaults to begin with). But currently there's no mention of it. It took almost a year for me to realise that I was running "production ready code" in root
Maybe you can use some client to navigate your share in a more pleasant way instead of hosting something new? I never tried that so I can't recommend anything for that unfortunately
If you are already hosting Nextcloud, the Memories app might fit your needs well.
Immich definitely isn't a bad option either. It doesn't take ton of resources, has a clean user interface and is multiplatform. Just like Coolie4 said, you can just try it out with a small collection first before committing to anything.
If you don't want them on cloud providers because you're not comfortable them being able to see those pictures, you can also pay for Ente.
Self hosting Ente is also an option, which is what I use for my family
You might also be able to get away with hosting something like Seafile and use directories as albums. But you won't get random shuffling in that case (My bad I can't read. This isn't much better than what you're doing currently)
The Bitwarden client, extension and app keep those locally as well. So unless you have a prolonged power outage, you should be fine. Though if you don't have anyone you need to share passwords with I'd recommend KeepassXC with Syncthing. You can set keybindings with the browser extension
It's fairly clunky. The developer is a nice guy and responds really quickly, but files sometimes didn't sync and I got an error twice where it just completely stopped syncing.There also isn't a proper setup guide or documentation (but you can always add the help flag halfway through your jar usage to know what parameters you're missing). The developer has been kind enough to help me through that though.
It might just be a skill issue on my end of course. Though needless to say I moved back to something else after a couple of months (In my case to Seafile)Also its Dutch translation is acceptable (I did that)
No, I currently use Syncthing to sync my documents and music folders between my devices. If there's something else, like the clips I make when playing with friends, the computer automatically syncs them to my Seafile instance with their sync client.That way I can easily share the folder and check it on my phone using the app. If you don't encrypt the drive it will show up and be navigable in your files app, without taking space (at least if you use the stock gos files app)
