May I ask why you export and de exify photos? Synology Photos does this work for you.

If its Steven Miller, they would have already called him out. I think they are saying "Unknown Political Consultant" because we don't want Putin using this reason to drop bombs on us.

 

Hi everyone! I have a unique issue and wondering if the community can give me some input.

I have 8 family members that I'm supporting with their photo and file management, spanning across multiple countries.

My current setup: Server 1: Serving 4 users Location: Taiwan Backup Server1: Taiwan(different location) C2 backup with Backblaze

Server2: Serving 4 users Location: Seattle Backup Server2: Seattle(same location) C2 backup with Backblaze

They are all on the same network(Tailscale), but 2 separate systems. But this is the only way I can get low latency for the local users.

My question to this community is if there is a way to run a single cluster and have whatever server is the closest to them at the time. So I only need to maintain 1 single server network?

Basically I'm running 4 Synology boxes. I want to minimize things a bit.

Thank you!

My money is "Unknown political consultant" is Putin.

Dude was into porn before the internet. He was just a future dude living in the past.

I'm sorta in the same boat as you. I run Synology all my photos and manage 5 different family members photos.

So I have different use cases for them and myself.

**For them: **They only care about the ability to see where they took their photos and its uploading correctly. The built in face detection is average at best but its enough for them to find the photo they are looking for.

They will never use the full extent of all the metadata that is available to them if I had it.

The tradeoffs are the ease of deployment and account management. I only have 5 members and if I had to teach each one which website or page to go to so they can view their images, it would drive me nuts. I simply give them credentials and a link to download from Apple Store and Playstore and off they go. New phones? No problem. Add it to their AppleTV? Don't need to bother me.
** For Me: ** I use Excire Foto and it scans each photo and helps me manage everything with a very powerful AI tool for tagging. I use it for the majority of my photo management. The downside, its not very remote friendly. So if you're working remote, you will not be able to manage your NAS photos from afar.

This way I keep both Synology Photos and use Excire when I'm needing to do some real work.

Thanks for replying. Sorry it took so long to reply.

Most of my "linux" skills are youtube video based. I'm currently running a proxmox box that houses my OpenWRT, adguard, tailscale Home assistant and a Win11 VM for backing up to backblaze. I also have a Synology box.

Like I said, most of my 'skills' are following well documented youtube videos and guides.

I currently own lemmy.tw. I'm located in Taipei and was going to run it out of my proxmox or a spare Intel i3 serverI have laying around. My fear is that since my boxes are on the same network, I might be putting myself at risk. I could setup a VLAN to segment it out of my network. I just don't want to lose all my data because of some lemmy bug and/or forgetting to update the kernals or something.

I don't mind paying for a monthly subscription for hosting if that means its safer.

Thanks for the help.

Did you ever fix your issue?

[–] jaschen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

13-15 years old so. Went there during the Digg migration.

I actually was wondering what you're doing with a pink ice windshield scraper.

Ask Putin how the "fuck around" is doing for his country?

I'm not really tech savvy but can follow directions pretty well. I am trying to create a local lemmy instance for my country and want to contribute to the community with a local server.

Does anyone know which community would I join to get more info about this? Any guides that might be helpful for me? I would appreciate the help. Thanks.

 

I have contributed to a ton of (free) information that was helpful and didn't have the heart to delete all my posts that I spent days/months doing. Is there an easy way to bring all those over here?
