I know we had posts like this before, but Immich deserves 👏
One more update, one less container, the best Google Photos alternative, its just amazing!!
Don’t forget to edit your docker-compose before updating

Do not have docker containers auto update.
Or, if you do have it auto-update (like I do) prepare for things to break every now and then. I auto-update just about all containers except those that would break either my home automation or my ability to login to my network and fix things. Everything else auto-updates, including Immich.
My Immich broke this weekend when they switched the stack over to
pgvecto, to use vector searching in Postgres. Easily fixed, but took me a solid minute to figure out what had changed.Which is kinda weird they didn’t communicate this one so well. In the lead-up to v.1.88.0, Alex made an announcement on Github to let people know the breaking change was the removal of the web container from the stack, rolling the webserver into the main server container itself. That was a good move, as all I did was flip my Watchtower container on that host to monitor only.
Dunno why they didn’t do something similar for the Postgres change. Was just as breaking.
Updating software that’s in such early development without reading the release notes is foolish.
Is it hard to breathe in that rarified air, up on your high horse?
I’ll keep taking my calculated risks. You keep judging strangers on the internet. 👍
Unless the container follows semver and only auto updates minor versions.
Edit : Which Immich isn’t.
