A technical walkthrough on self-hosting the Immich photo library inside a lightweight, unprivileged Proxmox LXC container. It covers securely mapping a TrueNAS NFS share to bypass unprivileged LXC permission errors, passing through an NVIDIA GPU (GTX 1080ti) to the container, and using Dockge for deployment. The result is a highly secure, hardware-accelerated photo backup system with blazing-fast video transcoding and AI facial recognition.
