  • That’s not what I consider negligible on my phone, which is already resource constrained. Yes, I have a problem with an app that intentionally wastes my valuable resources. I wouldn’t care so much from my desktop, but I mostly just use a desktop client to do things I can’t easily do on my mobile clients.

    No big deal. It’s not as if my participation is especially valuable. I would just participate less.

    edit: my objection is obviously more in principal than it is practical, but it would hardly be the first time I walked away from software (or a network) on philosophical grounds.

    I once decided to actually use the dread command.

    rm -rf /

    I was nuking the OS, so fuck it.

    Forgot to unmount my data first… And that was before I even knew that recovery services existed, so I just chucked it in the trash. Fuck me. If I still had the drive (and an IDE controller,) it would take all of 5 minutes to re-obtain access to my “lost” data. I’m a fucking idiot, but past me was also an utter moron.

    Hello everybody,

    Alex from Immich here. What a controversy that we caused with the choice of wording, right? My personal apology to you all.

    On behalf of the team, we would like everyone to know that we hear your concerns and we appreciate the love and care that you all have expressed for the project. At the end of the day, what we want most is to make sure you are all happy using the app.

    With that said, we are working on a change to the word license: we will not call it licensed or unlicensed anymore. What will it be called?

    We are still thinking of different options to make the wording less confusing. The new wording will hopefully showcase our intentions properly going forward.

    We’re also working on updating the FAQ with more information to clarify those intentions. We just want to provide good software that people will want to pay for whilst not limiting your usage in any way if you can’t.

    So expect these changes over the next week. We’re pushing this out now to let you know our appreciation for the feedback you’ve given us.

    The amount of purchases in the first 24 hours has been overwhelming. Thanks everyone for the great support!

    Have a great weekend!

    Immich team.
