Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Short version of this interview is that nothing is changing, other than they're going to be asking a flat fee "$5-20" for the app, rather than relying on donations. All donation platforms have been closed. However, if you choose not to, as Louis says "that's between you and your God".

Project will remain AGPL and thus can be forked at any time. FUTO maintains the trademark of Immich name and logos.

The only thing I can see in their License that would make it non-free is the non-commercial redistribution part of it, which is not that bad

Which might be there to prevent legal troubles from YouTube.

it is. It prevents people from forking it an making their own versions and then distrubuting it. That is not foss,just source availible.

It doesn't though? IANAL but as far as I can tell you can fork, modify and redistribute it as long as you provide the source code to your users.

It's AGPL-3.0 so.... https://www.tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-affero-general-public-license-v3-agpl-3-0

That guy was talking about grayjay, a Client to follow creators on multiple platforms at the same time. Grayjay isn't licensed under AGPL, but instead it uses the FUTO Temporary License. It technically still counts as source available, but I think the NC-Part is okay to have. AGPL would be nicer though especially bc of this.
