          It’s perfectly possible someone doesn’t want to:

          • Buy and run a whole separate PC

          • Figure out how to install TrueNAS and configure it properly

          • Install and configure Immich

          • Figure out how to make it accessible outside of their home network while maintaining security

          • Come up with an effective backup solution

          • Do regular maintenance and replace hardware when required

          Why are Lemmy users so incapable of realising others may have different preferences and priorities?

          Not everyone can be arsed with the complexity or hours of work the above entails. Not everyone has the money for it.

          I self host but I can definitely appreciate why people would prefer going a different route. It’d likely have saved me a lot of money, tbh.

            there’s no way to get here without being offered 50 of the services you’re “asking for”.

            A real human would know this. I was hoping we could use Lemmy without bots for at least a little while

                  Ok, so you meant Lemmy.

                  The person who asked the question is very well aware they are accessing Lemmy via an internet-connected device.

                  What does that have to do with asking if you can have a cloud-hosted Immich instance?

                  Additionally, how does it prove he’s a bot (which you have asserted) or that they’re a shill sent here, which you’ve also asserted?

                  I don’t know whether you yourself are a bot trained on a very bad model, or whether you’re simply extremely inebriated, because you’re not making much sense.
