I don’t run Immich specifically but all other software I run is on :latest tags and unattended-upgrades on Debian. It works so, why bother?

Why would using latest randomly break your containers?
It’s not unusual for an update to have breaking changes that require some manual intervention to fix.
If you are on latest, it can also be hard to know which version you used to be on if you want to roll back.

Only I rely on my services and if they break I’ll fix them myself.
Ok…so it should be easy to understand why for many people :latest is not a good idea
