  • Exactly this, I have hourly Borg backups and also since my install is entirely on a zfs array I have zfs autosnapshot every 5 mins with retention policy. Takes almost zero cpu or memory overhead extra and means and can do just about anything via command line and revert it back with ease.

    That being said, I still don’t auto update. Unless having an issue, I just sit down every few months and update everything manually because if its already working why update. If you want the newest features, how will you even know what they are if you don’t at least glance at the release notes?

    I’m on version 1.143.1 I skipped all the beta timeline stages and updated from 1.135 I think.

    About 30k photos and 2k videos

    The web interface was great, the android app (pixel 8) was very slow. Even local assets were slow.

    Since update, its way faster. Feels really good, responsive, low latency. Sync and backups have been no issue at all.

    Sync on android turned itself off after updating, but I turned it back on, selected the same folders to watch and it processed for a few mins and then everything continued to work with no issues.

    On the previous version, sync was pretty good. Sometimes it didn’t trigger as a background process and i had to manually open the app but it worked. New sync also works well though haven’t yet uploaded a large number of things.







  • One thing to consider is that once zfs is setup there really is no significant intervention that is needed. I probably haven’t done anything to my proxmox zfs array in years.

    I know its almost a meme to say just learn command line, but unfortunately in this case it will really help you understand what is happening and it also just takes a few commands to setup up once and then never worry about it again.

    After the inital setup, the zfs GUI will be pretty much unused.

    For commands I don’t use often, i use a note taking software to keep track of commands I used during setup because years go by before I use it again. I find the GUI often changes in that time making it harder to replicate whereas command line is the same and easier to document.
