#### High-performance desktop sync client for Immich

Lymic is a fast, lightweight desktop synchronization client built specifically
for self-hosted Immich media servers. It automatically discovers, monitors,
and uploads photos and videos from your local folders and removable storage
volumes directly to your personal Immich instance.

Key Features:

* Watched Folders: Configure multiple local directories and external drives to continuously monitor for new or updated media assets.
* Removable Media Detection: Automatically detects connected SD cards and external drives, synchronizing media seamlessly when plugged in.
* Live Photo Support: Reliably pairs and uploads still photos and companion video clips together as unified Live Photos.
* Flexible Album Assignment: Map specific folders to existing Immich albums or create new albums on the fly.
* High-Performance Sync Engine: Concurrent, resilient uploads with automatic retries, deduplication, and low memory usage.
* Native Credential Security: Stores authentication tokens and API keys safely in Linux Secret Service / Keyring.
* Complete Privacy: No ads, no third-party telemetry, and no tracking. All data flows directly and exclusively between your computer and your configured Immich server.
