    If you’re tech-savvy enough for it, please consider setting up an Immich library for your photos. That way, they won’t ever need to leave your home while still providing surprisingly powerful face recognition and photo search by context.

    IMO, it’s already insane to upload private pictured there without encrypting them first.

      Better if they don’t leave your device in the first place, encryption should always be considered a last line of defence, just because some encryption is unbreakable today, it may be easily broken in the futurr as breakthroughs in computers and mathematics advance.

      Instead of paying for cloud backups just buy some hard drives, it’s cheaper in the long run too.
