  • I’ve been trying to find some good examples of how to structure the files, and whether to combine the photos from everyone or to keep them separate. Obviously there’s different systems for everyone, but your method of syncing, tagging, and displaying/sharing photos is almost identical to how I’ve been wanting to go about it.

    Do you mind sharing how you structure the photo files and naming in your Gallery directory?

    I was thinking of implementing the Copyright tag to keep the data of the original phototaker, and then combine all the photos into a Gallery/YYYY/MM structure, with the filenames being YYYYMMDD-CameraModel. There aren’t many events we go to, so albums aren’t a big priority, but on the occasion, I was thinking if using a folder like MM-Event in the respective year folder.

    I’m just putting my thoughts down because I don’t often see this part of people’s photo organizing.




  • I used to use FreeNAS but found it was to “heavy” for just home and personal use. I felt like it took a lot more steps to just do some simple things.

    During my last upgrade, I switched to using OpenMediaVault and have been really enjoying it. I started using Docker with it and that has been an amazing breakthrough in the way I use services like Jellyfin.

    I’ve been using SnapRaid for the data redundancy together with MergerFS so all the drives appear and operate as a single big drive. I have SnapRaid sync once a week which sort of acts like a backup in case I accidentally delete something.
