Unable to open Immich in chrome
solved it finally!
It was an obscure OS settings that I didn't know about, and couldn't easily find on the internet.
MacOS Settings > Privacy and Security > (scroll to the bottom) > "Local Network Access" > Toggle Google Chrome.
also, It seems this permission is not needed for Safari.

Permission issue for Restored Immich (with borg)
yes. Is that a problem?
Did you mean the disk that's being backed up to? Or the one I restored to (and then run immich)?

XMP sidecar doubt
got it.
also related to this, I saw @bo0tzz 's comments here https://github.com/immich-app/immich/pull/5066
I guess this includes users editing through the app as well, right? Not just through api.
And edits would include - datetime, location, description - all of these fields?

XMP sidecar doubt
nope, just want to understand what's going on.
When and why are these created? Did immich-go create them or immich itself?

XMP sidecar doubt
is there some documentation about this? (xmp sidecar creation and why/when)
When immich-go tells immich to update an asset, that must be similar to users editing an asset on the webpage as well right? With the same sidecar effect.
yes I saw the files, but it didn't answer my original questions.

XMP sidecar doubt
Otherwise,
I've heard that immich creates those files too... could it be that?
If so, when or why does immich do this?

immich-go was used at some point. Otherwise, web upload (including drag and drop).

Can I update EXIF data of files in the Immich Library?
@DandyAndy yeah that's what I'm trying to do as well. I want some of the data in the json to permanently stay embedded in those photos. Such as timezone, datetime, maybe location and description too.
What changes did you make? And with exiftool, I'm guessing?

Support for Google Photos JSON sidecar files ?
does it add the descriptions also? I have manually added a lot of descriptions over the years in gphotos. Alas in my testing of immich-go, this wasn't working.
@Simulot
And thanks a lot for making the tool too.

Remote Machine Learning - Load Balancing
I don't think the kind of load balancing you're looking for can be done.
However, you could just use the most powerful device for the ml stuff.
I mean, the cpu is not needed for ml if you've already got a GPU. And in general, just go with the beefiest hardware. Load balancing is only needed if your devices are roughly equal in capability.
And like Mraedis said, you can add many ML endpoints and immich chooses the top-most available one.

Can I update EXIF data of files in the Immich Library?
immich-go doesn't help to add EXIF data or XMP sidecars to locally stored images.
I'm working outside of immich, and finally I'll upload it there.

which 2 ML servers are you trying to balance b/w? I thought there's only one remote ml instance.

Can I update EXIF data of files in the Immich Library?
and if I want to add some Metadata to my local photos (using EXIFtool), before uploading them to immich, would you suggest I store it in XMP sidecar files or as embedded EXIF?
I gota lot of metadata from a GPhotos takeout, as "json sidecar" files. @bo0tzz
