It’s just take take take.

Didn’t down vote. I don’t have a dog in your hunt but…What’s he taking?

It’s trying to tell us something. I just can’t decipher what it could be. Maybe a warning?

I’ve looked into a few of these type apps. They all are for individuals tracking their own flights, which is just jippity. Nice piece of work. However I’ve been looking for a FlightAware fork. if you will, I can self host.

Something like this: https://www.flightaware.com/live/map But self hosted. I believe FlightAware has an API.

Great project. Looks like a lot of time went into it. I may give it a spin later on this evening. You included screenshots. Thank you for that.

it can not do full system backups

Sure, I get that. Not kicking you in the cods, I just understood OP’s request was related to photos. No worries, all good.

Synctrain

With Synctrain you can securely synchronize files with other devices that have Syncthing installed. You can choose to synchronize full folders, or choose specific files. With Synctrain you can also stream audio and video files from other devices. When you synchronize files, all changes, including deleting files, also happen on your other devices.

Am I missing something here? If so, spool me up.

If I understand correctly, iOS apps don’t run continuously in the background which doesn’t match OP’s ‘automatic’ requirement. But, I mean…tap the app, sit the phone down for a few minutes, and viola! Now if you are one to take hundreds of pictures daily, and you haven’t backed up in a while, you might want to disable ‘auto-lock’ temporarily so the screen doesn’t time out, or you can keep up with regular backups. iOS doesn’t expose the photo library as a regular file system, so the app uses the system photo picker API to access new pictures, and you have to point Mobius to the DCIM folder iirc.

So, ok not fully automatic, might involve one or two steps depending on the time span between backups, but it would work. I just backed up 131 photos in less than the time it took me to type this comment.

Searching the App store for synchthing didn’t turn up synchthing but it did turn up a bunch of sync type apps like

• Synctrain
• Resilio sync
• Goodsync

…etc. Might be worthwhile to try out a few.

i built a PC in late 2024, and it’s easily worth twice what i paid for it.

I wrote the vendor and asked him if the decimal was in the right place or was this the model that was beta testing alien technology. Got to be a misprint.

I still live with my parents and they have no understanding of how vile corporations can be

As a septuagenarian, it’s really not their fault as much as the era they were most likely grew up in. We were taught to trust cops, governments, corporations, etc because these organizations had our best interest at heart. wink - wink

Good call. The only thing I need/want from my ISP is the cable coming into the house. Everything else is off limits.

That’s interesting. I didn’t know Podman had a Windows environment desktop app.

No worries mate. I’m sure there are YT channels that cover selfhosting, but for me, I get more out of reading most often. Others may be able to help in that regard.

Tho not quite as popular here, there is also https://noted.lol/ and to a lesser extent https://mariushosting.com/docker/

I update after I feel all the early adopters have worked out all the bugs for me.

It could be harmless, but it could become a problem if you need the resources.

That’s the thing. None of them are consuming resources. I guess I should just ignore them, but it irritates me when I start my server, to see zombie processes. Makes me think something is askew.

down 10% of the time

Anecdotally: As a part of my morning routine, I check Thousand Eyes to see what the ‘internet weather’ is doing. GitHub and Microsoft are usually down somewhere, in some form or fashion.
