Immich Distribution is an independent community project that packages the software in a snap package. This project is not affiliated with the upstream Immich project, its developers, or FUTO. For more information, please refer to the documentation site.
If you like to have Immich installed directly from the Immich project use the official Docker images. Do not report bugs to upstream unless you are sure that the same bug is present in the upstream images.
In short, this is an Immich Distribution packaged inside a snap package. The package is inspired of the official Immich images. It will be similar, but not identical with the official Docker-based installation. Extra tools are included, they should be non-intrusive and you can ignore them if you like.
For more information see the project page at https://immich-distribution.nsg.cc
sudo snap install immich-distribution
For detailed installation instructions with recommendations and hardware requirements, automatic updates and configuration see the installation documentation pages at the projects website.
