Migrate from an old version

I'm aware thanks. Problem is there are 53 versions between the current one I'm using and the latest, so was wondering if there's a way I could just export my photos and import them back into a fresh instance to speed up the process, even if it means rebuilding all the metadata.

What's the best way to remotely access my home server?

For DNS you can set up split DNS to use your own server, here is a video explaining how you can do it https://youtu.be/Uzcs97XcxiE?si=rUFkvUA9XGzhqlnl

What's the best way to remotely access my home server?

Not at all, tailscale has some spacial NAT traversal magic sauce that makes it work out of the box almost all the time https://tailscale.com/kb/1082/firewall-ports/

What's the best way to remotely access my home server?

There is an OS version of their control server called headscale that you can self-host if you want. Some folks do it but imo it's not worth the trouble https://github.com/juanfont/headscale

What's the best way to remotely access my home server?

VPN is the most secure because everything is encrypted end-to-end + you rely on asymmetric cryptography for authentication underneath (although with solutions like Tailscale you really delegate authentication to 3rd parties like Github but that's nitpicking). With a reverse proxy, if your setup is basic, you're relying on the application you're exposing being secure. For example in this case you would be relying on the robustness of Immich's authentication system. I love Immich but I don't think it's secure enough and it's not built to be exposed to the internet anyway. More advanced solutions exist like Authelia + reverse proxy or Cloudflare tunnels but a VPN would still be the more secure solution.

VPN is the most secure. Tailscale is the one I use and it's easy to set up and use.

Access immich outside local network?

Using Tailscale too, I configured it to automatically turn on/off when leaving/coming back home. Works perfectly!
