All photos in Ente are E2EE — only client devices can decrypt it. Immich doesn’t have any encryption thus allowing anyone who manages the server to view your photos as they are. Immich is fully self-hosted while with Ente you have an option for paying Ente or self-host. I honestly prefer Immich because the features outweigh the encryption as I own the server myself and Ente is a bit complicated to setup — I think you even have to deploy the entire Ente Ecosystem Stack.

If you don’t want to pay Immich for backups, you can take care of off-site backups yourself using tools like rclone to your hard drive or any off-site storage of your choice. A paywall here would be not allowing offsite backups at all unless you pay Immich.
Aah gotcha. I don’t remember exactly. I was using HA a year ago for about a month just to test around, but my home doesn’t have any smart devices so I got rid of it.
But as far as I remember, it was something in the HA settings itself (probably in the admin account or in the map). Just give location access to HA mobile app and it should work perfectly.
I don’t think it’ll play out that way. Manufacturers aren’t going to ditch Google. Play Store and Google certification are too valuable for them. And for small developers, most of them rely on Google’s infrastructure. If the EU decides to take that away, only big players with resources could handle their own systems, which ironically makes things less open because indies get squeezed out.
If we skip the Play Services part, the EU might push for sideloading and more openness, but realistically Play Services will remain dominant simply because it’s the easiest and most convenient option for developers. So we’ll probably end up with a halfway solution: technically more open, but practically still dependent on Google.
If we really want change, proper GNU/Linux phones need to catch up or at least run Android apps (APKs) reliably. That alone would solve 70% of the problem. The remaining 30% comes down to infrastructure and right now Google Play Services is just too polished and convenient (especially for indies who don’t care about FOSS ideals) for devs to walk away from.
Agreed, but is a chicken and egg problem. People won't use Linux because the apps they want don't support it and apps won't support it because most people don't use Linux. Someone will have to cave in if we want to break this stupid proprietary duopoly.
I asked for a free OS and Gnu/Linux was there when I asked for it. But LITERALLY no one asked for AI generated reels platform other than Metaholes in the company.
Even I want to believe that but I am an Indian and know how people think here. Families here think if their daughter/wife/mother/sister have been raped, it would bring disgrace to them if the news spread in the public so they stay silent and hope it would pass. This is especially true for low income families.
Home Assistant does have location tracking feature where the phone app reports the location.
According to the girl’s family, Rashid first lured her to his home by offering fruit. He allegedly filmed the assault and threatened to harm her relatives if she told anyone.
The family knew and decided to do nothing about it?

I used to pay for Ente as well but then I tried Immich & IMO is just so much better. It is THE Google Photos alternative with almost all the features. And as you said, you can get encryption with LUKSing your drive or partitions. I have automated my backups so I am pretty much at ease especially after the stable release.
