       | This will be great. I only noticed two issues with the mobile
       | app, and one of them had to do with performance - it would get
       | "stuck" uploading an image to the server, and no amount of
       | waiting would let it complete. So I'd have to restart the app,
       | and it would always start over and check every image that was in
       | the library before uploading would begin again.
       | 
       | The second issue is still related to timestamps from iCloud
       | photos. The date that's on the photo in iCloud is not respected
       | when uploading to Immich, meaning photos tagged from 40-90 years
       | ago show up as being taken today.

       | recommend it?

         | Yes, works great. Exported everything from Google and uploader
         | to my self hosted immich. Love it.

         | The discord is also very active and the devs respond well to
         | bugs and feature requests.

         | options and live photos are missing.

       | I would generally suggest folks look at something like
       | ElectricSQL Postgres Sync Engine. There's a pretty good
       | ShapeStream HTTP API for shipping shape logs across to the
       | client. It can do so much of the heavy lifting for shipping
       | updates for you, & will be reliable! https://electric-
       | sql.com/docs/api/clients/typescript#shapest...
       | 
       | ElectricSQL are also authors of pglite, a wasm postgres, for
       | running a sync-ed to mini postgres on the client (via wasm).
