Just a regular ball pen I got for free :) I explained my use cases for the flipper in another comment.

I'm a huge radiation nerd and just need to measure every orange tile and green glass that I stumble across.

Thanks! I'm rather new to the game and still optimizing. But some of the things already have been very useful.

  • As a remote for some devices and garage doors
  • I'm a bit of a data hoarder, so I record various radio comms, NFC tags, infrared... I find in the wild
  • For field microcontroller programming
  • Sometimes as a clicker during presentations
  • I built a SCD30 extension board, so I sometimes use it to monitor the CO2 concentration in rooms

It hurts me too, to have no better use for them. I just have no hardware with enough PCI lanes to connect a significant number of them.

I should have mentioned that I have various other backups (including Hetzner Storage Boxes and continously spinning enterprise HDDs).

I just wanted to use them to store “another copy” because I have no other idea how to use them.

Former Immich dev here:

Even in the early days, we got hundreds of different feature requests that “can be done easily”. Even this example is a lot harder than you might think.

  • Since all clients work differently, this probably has to be done server-side, requires a new endpoint, caching logic, client support.
  • Immich supports a ton of file formats, the solution has to work with all of them.
  • We must not lose meta data, quality or alter the image in some other way, Immich is a backup tool, file integrity is a top priority.

If you have an idea, how to tackle all of this, contact the dev team on Discord, they’re really helpful and will surely guide you through the process of implementing.

I was one of the first Immich core developers but had to leave a year ago due to a change in my job situation.

Just wanted to say that the team (especially Alex, the founder) are wonderful people and very dedicated to the project. When they don’t implement the features everyone wants, there is usually a very good reason, like security or architectural concerns. The philosophy behind the project is also to do things slowly but right.

I believe they continue focussing on robusness and bugfixing. A topic that we discussed a lot was e2e encryption. We really wanted to implement that, but it was very hard and back then would have compromised performance too much. I still think that e2e encryption will come at some point.
