Just exposed Immich via a remote and reverse proxy using Caddy and tailscale tunnel. I’m securing Immich using OAuth.
I don’t have very nerdy friends so not many people appreciate this.

Don’t listen to this guy. You don’t have to turtle all your stuff inside a VPN if you don’t want to. Hosting services on the internet is what the internet was created for. It’s up to you whether what you want to host is exposed to the internet or not, and as long as you’re aware of the risks do what you want man. I will mention that Immich specifically might not be the best idea to expose since it’s so unstable, but that depends on your level of comfortability. Worst case scenario is somebody gets into your Immich and can see all your photos. Would this be a dealbreaker for you? If so don’t expose it publicly. Otherwise you’re perfectly fine.
Nobody said they had to. I made him aware of the risks in case he wasn’t. You seem to have an axe to grind there.
I’m not a big fan of amateur know-nothings regurgitating the same nonsense regurgitated to them by previous know-nothings, attempting to further the cycle to people finding their footing with self hosting, telling everybody what they “should” do based on their own limited understabding. It was a big problem on the self hosted reddit and up to this point has been less of a problem here.
And yet here you are, making sure this guy knows he can expose anything he wants except the specific thing you decided is troublesome like immich. Maybe you’ll be here to help him put it all back together with your wealth of knowledge and experience.
Take a hard look at yourself, you’re doing all the stuff you accuse someone else of. Maybe you aren’t always the smartest person in the room. In any case, I’m done with your shit. Go ruin someone else’s day, you ray of sunshine.
Yeah maybe you should take notes on how to relay a little bit of relevant knowledge in the context of what it is they’re trying to do, and let them decide how it fits their use case, instead of repeating broad, inaccurate generalizations dictating what people should and shouldn’t do across the board.
If you’re not going to be helpful or informative, then don’t bother chiming in at all.
Absolutely that’s what the internet was made for!
But family photos keep a bit more secure, Particularly if it’s syncing directly from your phone, I take a lot of explicit photos of my wife, but also code that I’m writing on my computer, or the kids playing, etc.
