Apples and oranges.
Package managers only install a package with defaults. These helper scripts are designed to take the user through a final config that isn’t provided by the package defaults.
No need to be elitist about such things.
EDIT: this particular repo is highly regarded in the community. It is very akin to the AUR. It’s not some haphazard collection of scripts.
This is better-suited for a privacy- or fediverse-oriented community. I applaud the content, but it doesn’t really speak to self-hosting in any meaningful way.
I had a similar change of perspective when I became a parent. We do our best to raise our kids to be the best people they can be. But, if we want to do normal people things and that requires some screen time, so be it. I know what’s going on with my kids and idgaf what others think.

Thanks for this thoughtful and considerate response. As a parent myself, your kindness is so appreciated!
Using an LLM doesn’t break the rules. This post’s fate will be determined by your votes.
Surely this is better-suited for the Immich GitHub Discussions page, no?
Well, it is the Register
In the context of this community and the movement in general, ‘self-hosting’ is designed to contrast against the larger trend of “let me just trust one of the big cloud companies with all my stuff”. We’ve seen how that can go very, very wrong. So, the idea of maintaining control of your data and the methods by which it is accessed is the heart of ‘self-hosting’. It’s not meant to restrict one to only computers stored in one’s home.
Make sure your home server config isn’t mistaking this client as a remote user. Check your networking, etc
Get out of here with that logic and personal experience that contradicts the popular narrative!
Ok, but you came seeking us. Please do us the kindness of answering the question while also pointing us towards the FAQs.
So, use something else, like Seafile.
Well, unless you feel like writing that feature into this project, perhaps you could modify your requirements slightly. Copying your local file to a share that’s also mounted to this handbrake-web instance would accomplish the same goal - taking local files and having them processed by this backend service.
Interesting. Is it fair to say you’ve created a web interface to standard image manipulation tools ?
Here’s an official announcement: https://www.outerbase.com/blog/were-joining-cloudflare/
Your huge reason is the padlock in the browser bar? I’m not against TLS internally. I do it myself with my own CA. For this particular instance and the unique requirements, it seemed easiest to avoid TLS.
I’m not going to remove this post because the article does boast the virtues of self-hosted FOSS. Still, the article isn’t much more than an overview and does very little to educate or instruct. This is relatively low-effort and I hope the votes reflect that.
