I need to spin it up and have a look. I was on photoprism for years, but the dev was always so prickly on Reddit. It really rubbed me the wrong way. With nextcloud, I may also have a better chance getting my spouse to come over.

I run the linuxerver nextcloud container, and it seems like it doesn’t really play well with memories. At least, I can’t get the external transcoding container working, so I’ve put off migrating to the official container just to get memories working.

This is huge for me. I really want to like Nextcloud photos, but not being able to sort by date taken was killings me.

I mean this in the nicest way possible, but if this threw you for a loop, you’re in for a world of hurt once you get the software up and running. It’s not rocket science, but learning to administer any Linux server will take a little time. I’m sure it’s not bricked. Consider this an opportunity to learn how to write a new disk image and interact with your new server through the console.

7th gen i5 NUCs can be found on eBay for under $100 shipped with 16gb of ram and a small m2 drive. They’re not as powerful as a larger SFF chip, but at 15w TDP is pretty hard to beat. I have four of them now. I pick one up every time a find a good deal.

8th gens are still really expensive.

I have three locks and managed to find three newish Kwikset 910 locks for anywhere between $20-40 each. You just have to watch ebay listings and wait for a good deal to pop up.
