Okay wait - I’ve used cURL for other stuff but can I just go and download e.g. from a file hosted using cURL and entering my credentials with -u?

I didn’t know it is the other way around (Albania ban vs. YouTube not playing ads)! Thanks for elaborating.

Theres also the possibility to use a VPN and log in from Albania (I think) to avoid ads altogether because they’re not legal there.

Can you access immich from outside of your network? If so, how do you do it? I’d like to do it, too, without accidentally opening everything to the internet haha
