the sapphic urge to build a thing that syncs albums across immich instances... neocat_pleading

(correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think this exists yet, from a few web searches)

So I've been working on that tool a little bit on the side every day since, and I'm happy to announce that the first image was just synced from a shared album on one immich instance to another album on my own instance ^^

It's far from finished, but nice to see that this works already, and it was indeed not hard at all.
Btw, my goal for this is to have a minimal proof-of-concept tool that works well for syncing a single album – not to implement a whole lot of functionality or friendly UI.

Using this for importing shared links would also be cool tho. Maybe I could turn it into a library or something.

@stellavie nope this is simply a python script that pulls the images via the api and uploads them to the other instance, without writing them to disk in between
