Thanks but I'm limited to openmediavault on my Rpi locally. I wanted to try something a little more powerful like truenas to get more experience different linux-based systems. But given that I currently don't have any major plans for the remote server other than storing backups I may just put a distro that I can install borg on like others have suggested.

Thanks, I'll have to look into that. I've only really worked with SMB shares before.

Thanks, I like the idea of running it in a container, I'll have to look into that.

That is a good question, haha. I wanted to try something other than openmediavault that had a GUI, was designed for NAS, and protects against disk failure (specifically with raidz). However, I think openmediavault actually supports zfs now which might be easier given that I am limited to openmediavault on my local Rpi 4 server.

AFAIK, not yet. I think they are working on adding the "free up space" capability but I think that may only remove them from the device not the cloud. However, I am on Android so not sure how that would work for iCloud. If you can't find the answers in their documentation, you can search or ask in their discord channel.

Take a look at immich!

Does a lot of what you stated above. Plus, it has machine learning built in so you can use features like 'memories' and face detection, etc. I transitioned from Google photos to immich a little less than a year ago and haven't looked back!
