tech savvy ppl and non-techy ppl both dont like Edge, Bing and copilot

I have a complete file structure with years on years worth of photos and videos. I've learned you can add an external library to Immich and it'll scan the pics you have there, but is it possible for it to scan recursivley?

for example i give the path "/mnt/drive" and immich can find "/mnt/drive/cat/picture.jpeg". is this possible?

hey there. i have a virtual TrueNAS running on proxmox. on that truenas i have a SMB share with photos on it. i also installed Immich as an app on truenas. is it possible for immich to show me the images on that shared folder? if so, please help me thanks :)

(the shared folder is also mirroring drives to not lose my data if one of them fails)

Hey there! i currently have a Samsung Galaxy A55 and i want to try one of the privacy focused phones. But idk which is the best i could try.

My findings:

• Fairphone with /e/OS, but ive heard /e/OS is apparantly not that secure.
• Google Pixel with GrapheneOS, but with this one I still need to buy from Google.
• Linux phones, but I'm concerend they dont support all the apps i want to use.

that being said, can you use MicroG instead of Google Services for ALL apps? or does it only work for things like Revanced?

edit:

i also use a Samsung smartwatch with Google Wallet so would this still be possible with an alternate OS?

Someone on Mastodon @'d my Lemmy account. how is this possible? I though Lemmy and Mastodon are seperate from each other?

pic unrelated

I am very new to Lemmy, and I am using the Eternity app. But I am wondering which one you guys are using, and maybe there are better one's than Eternity without me knowing
