Immich unlimited
Hi! I'm not sure how immich works.
Should I buy it for €25 or €100, and can I use it for life?
And where does my photo archive go?
Do I have unlimited space?

and df -h
).

If this ticket can be closed you can use the /close
command, and re-open it later if needed.It's not a payment for any space or server hosting
You need to run Immich on your own server
How much would that cost to me to host 100gb of pictures and videos, and always have the app to sync that for me, on a smartphone or other device?
That's a hard question to answer
Depends on a lot of factors
Ok! Like if I have a 5tb nas at home, and want lmmich to be used on my smartphone when not at home, what service do I need to pay?
If you already have a server at home to run Immich on then you shouldn't need any other service
You just need to set up a tunnel/vpn or make it accessible externally
ok, but since pic and videos are heavy, how much money would it cost to run a server if you upload lets say, 5gb of stuff a month?
I'm not sure I understand you.
Once you have Immich running on server, how exactly do you imagine the volume of uploaded data affects the costs?
5 GB is absolutely nothing, most hosting providers offer 1 TB per month of bandwidth even for a cheap VPS
And by cheap I mean $10/year
