A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Your ML model cache volume is getting blown up during restart and the model is being re-downloaded during the first search post-restart. Either set it to a path somewhere on your storage, or ensure you're not blowing up the dynamic volume upon restart.

In my case I changed this:

  immich-machine-learning:
    ...
    volumes:
      - model-cache:/cache

To that:

  immich-machine-learning:
    ...
    volumes:
      - ./cache:/cache

I no longer have to wait uncomfortably long when I'm trying to show off Smart Search to a friend, or just need a meme pronto.

That'll be all.

So why would you not write out the full path? I frequently rerun compose commands from various places, if I'm troubleshooting an issue.

So why would you not write out the full path?

The other day my raspberry pi decided it didn’t want to boot up, I guess it didn’t like being hosted on an SD card anymore, so I backed up my compose folder and reinstalled Rasp Pi OS under a different username than my last install.

If I specified the full path on every container it would be annoying to have to redo them if I decided I want to move to another directory/drive or change my username.

I'd just do it with a simple search and replace. Have done. I feel like relative paths leave too much room for human error.
