You are not wrong… Sme here for immich and many others…

We should self host time?

Well, due to hardware encryption keys and such, it’s not that easy… Also many devices supported only works after sniffing the keys from the official apps. Which is not a viable approach in my opinion…

Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. Garmin is still one of the most open brands, you can always copy activities from USB cable if you don’t want to use the proprietary Garmin app.

I would need to mess with stuff and protocols, it should be possibile to get Rid of the proprietary app and maybe once I will have time to do it …

Sorry to say that most sport devices are not supported by gadget bridge

I use endurain since day one and it’s growing fast and good. Dev is very dedicated and progress is significant and solid.

Said so, I always despised Strava and never used it. But I use Garmin platform since I own many garmin devices for run bike and more … And after all these years Garmin stuff, also on software side, keeps being non enshittified

I built a DIY with a 12v chime, a 12v dry contact ZigBee relay, a 12v generator, one ZigBee button and a Tenda two way audio pts external camera .

The 12v (AC) is required by my gate lock. The two way audio depends on a proprietary app (didn’t bother too hard to make it works with Home assistant yet).

Using home assistant I can open the gate and check the camera. To actually talk back I need to open the proprietary app

Cool man! Love it …

And yet immich is still ahold, so I guess futo has been a clear win so far for immich.

While I would prefer gpl3, still futo so far has delivered only good stuff. (I also use futo keyboard and voice typing).

what? Nope you are wrong. Monday is the first day of the week all over Europe. Blame Americans not christians, at least this time.

How safe is this

I think Plesk is still self-hosting. Nowhere it says that self host MUST be open source or in general, free stuff. Self hosting is host on your premises, or actually host yourself (hosting on a VPS IMHO is still selfhost).

As for Plex, i discarded it from the day 0 and went with Jellyfin directly, never looked back and i am 100% happy with my choice. I would NOT consider something like Plex (with it’s enshittification, pricing and overall shady approaches in general) as viable for my setup. But, it’s still self-host since you host your media and your service.

Cool!

Thank you!

Low effort post? Does it cost so much to at least copy paste the GitHub description?

Yes this is exactly the point behind LazyNVR… reduce power usage of the server, and CPU, since the load can already be supported by the camera itself.

If the camera can only record on local storage, you can still use LazyNVR but you would need to manually dump the SD card content to the server… Ftp or any other network transfer is much more practical tough

Not the ones I have … Maybe they are just too old (3-6 years) but they live separated from internet. So I am pretty sure of that.

Well, they probably don’t do face detection at all actually …

I only have one reolink and it’s cabled, PoE. So can’t help you… But I can say reolink is the worst hardware quality but better software quality than dahua in my experience … My reolink did factory reset for over one year every time it rained… Then stopped all by itself … No idea why

Never had imou or tapo. But if they provide at least an url for live stills you can athe very least display them in the web GUI bot not collect recordings…

Yes there will be regulations and laws on AI and it’s use, it’s a matter of time. Technology usually comes first, and it’s regulations come afterward…

It’s too soon at this time. And I have absolutely no hope that companies are capable to regulate themselves.
