Hi all,

For all people awaiting for an LXC to self host Immich the time has come. The LXC came up a month ago, sorry if it’s a repost.

    Why? Unless you need specific kernel features, Docker is superior because of containerization (runs on host kernel with no overhead), uses less space (layered image), and is easy to set up a complicated network (you want certain apps to run behind WireGuard with reverse proxy? Few lines in yaml).

      LXC is containerization. Both it and Docker are using the same kernel APIs.

      Currently I’m nesting docker in an LXC. I also believe that the LXC updater would take care of the breaking changes that happen with the complex docker compose changes (hasn’t in several releases but it happens)
