Feature detail

Immich is awesome, I've been using it for the past weeks, and with the upcoming features, it will become even more awesome.

One feature that I would love to have is an option to "Free up space", which would automatically delete any photos that have already been backed up. This feature is present in Google Photos AFAIK. The expected behavior for this feature would be pretty much the same as Google Photos for what I saw in this Reddit post:

Keep up the good work with Immich! You're doing an awesome contribution to the self-hosted world :)

Oh, thank you. I haven't been able to find any issue looking up "free space". I guess I was using the wrong words.
