I need a solution for backing up images and videos from iOS (lemmy.world)

I currently use Nextcloud and Immich, Nextcloud on iOS is garbage though, it can't auto upload files if they are too big, even with the application open.

Immich is great, but is under very active development, so it could break any time. I take backups of the images and store it in my array, and external HDD and Google Drive (encrypted, nothing I upload to G drive is unencrypted). Immich is stores content in a complicated directory structure that goes 3-4 folders deep, I'm hoping to find something that just uploads all my photos and videos to a single folder or two.

iCloud only gives me 5GB, and it's almost full, and I dont want to pay for G Drive and iCloud+.

Is there another solution I can use to just store photos on my server, that will auto upload from iOS without issue?

Sounds like your nextcloud instance has a low limit for the upload file size. It has to be adjusted in the php settings of your nextcloud server. I set it to 1 GB and have no problem in uploading my videos using auto upload of the nextcloud app.

I set mine to 5G I think but it seems to be a common issue with iOS from what I’ve seen on GitHub. I’ve got a 14 pro and videos are usually really large file sizes which doesn’t help.
