    I know this is unsolicited advice, so apologies for that, but did you consider that the issue could also be your server hard drive failing? I guess not a possibility if its really only recently synced pictures. Just wanted to throw that in.

    Regarding backing up photos, Immich works well for that but is also a lot more than just photo backup, so maybe not a preference for you.




  • While I am in the same boat as you, you severely overestimate the tech-affinity of the average Netflix user.

    Pirating content safely, setting up a media server for it, share it with other people… it is all possible, there is good documentation out there. But aside from having the drive to do this, you also need to invest time to keep it running and maintain it.

    The average person out there is happy to pay Netflix money so they don’t need to do that.

    Edit: add to that also the fact that it is technically illegal in many countries. This is probably also a deterrent for the average person.
