I just want something as a proof of concept that this can be for me. I am aware I am the problem.

But everything is wildly difficult for me. I pulled back from docker after realising it was above my skillset, I just want to try home assisstant with a few lights but fair enough it is beyond me.

I opted to install a game, fail. Learn about wine and bottles. Start a bottle and get told I only have 8gb free in directory, I cannot for the life of me see where it is getting that from.

Please god someone tell me there is a step by step for the fucking imbeciles out there on where to start!?

It really takes 5min tops ! But only if you know what you are doing. Immich is not an easy compose stack for beginners. There's also all the other stuff you have to take care off (backup? Behind proxy? Share with people outside your lan? ...).

Having the compose stack up and running is just the first step ^^ but once you get the hang off, it's fun and really cool stuff floating arround (navidrome, pihole, home assistant, newpipe, vaultwarden, jellyfin......)

It takes some time to get comfortable but don't give up, it's worth it !

    I felt like I needed more pre-requisite understanding and knowledge when setting it up. I was able to get the web app working but had no idea on how to setup the mobile app. And the images I uploaded didn't go to the folder I specified.... I have no idea about the other steps you mentioned lol
