Yes, and WireGuard is extremely fast.
You wouldn't be exposing more to the internet with a VPN. You would be opening a single port to the internet (e.g., 51280), and it requires specific "handshakes" from private keys on your devices (e.g., iPhone) paired to stored public keys on your server. Without those keys, the port on your server isn't accessible.
If you choose to open port 443/80 on your server for a reverse proxy instead, you are relying on your own server security setup (e.g., fail2ban + caddy + some cloudflare CDN), whatever authentication method you've implemented, and Immich's web security.
This is not a knock on the Immich devs (I love Immich :), but AFAIK the app wasn't primarily designed with security as the foremost priority. Any vulnerabilities in Immich could potentially be exploited by attackers.
You are potentially risking someone compromising all of your photos.
Of course, this is a low risk. But still a real one.
Unless you're 100% confident in your security configuration skills, I think VPN is the safer choice.

Do you need to expose it? Why not VPN?
I was originally planning on going down the reverse proxy route, but now use WireGuard + Caddy + dnsmasq so I can have custom domains. I decided the risk of internet exposure wasn’t worth it.
Ignore if not relevant 🙂

It’s not that smart 🤣 it’s currently built on just a bunch of table joining behavior.
I could build an iterative process though if needed.
But it sounds like you have it fixed?

The risk of keeping duplicate base file names is that we would end up linking multiple photos to one video, which I don’t know is safe?

I’m just hesitant to get rid of the duplicate removal process. The script finds photo and video base file name matches, removes photos with duplicate base file names, filters the remaining photo/video pairs to only include those captured at a similar time, and then links the remaining photos/videos.

It’s saying it found potentially 67k unlinked photos before the duplicate removal process.

I can understand that… but don’t let sunk cost prevent a cleaner overall solution.
Food for thought, but you do you 🙂

The duplicate file names poses a problem, I designed the script to remove those to prevent multiple photos being linked to the same file.
I can think about the implications of adding a flag to disable this.

I see I see. So this seems like an entirely different problem than what my script was built for.
To clarify, all of your photos are already correctly linked in the web, right?

3. I'm wondering if you have duplicate file names across your library, and that's causing your error.

1. Can you try uploading those two files you shared in the chat, and manually set their times to be the exact same? Then run the script and see if it identifies them.

I downloaded your files above and was able to link them, although I had to manually set the time because the date was updated for the video when I downloaded it.
