If you're going to host user content on subdomains, then you should probably have your site on the Public Suffix List https://publicsuffix.org/list/ . That should eventually make its way into various services so they know that a tainted subdomain doesn't taint the entire site....

The root cause is bad behaviour by google. This is merely a workaround.

Remember, this is a free service that Google is offering for even their competitors to use.

And it is incredibly valuable thing. You might not think it is, but internet is filled utterly dangerous, scammy, phisy, malwary websites and everyday Safe Browsing (via Chrome, Firefox and Safari - yes, Safari uses Safe Browsing) keeps users safe.

If immich didnt follow best practice that's Google's fault? You're showing your naivety, and bias here.

Oh c’mon. Google does not offer free services. Everyone should know that by now.

What is Safari getting by using Safe Browsing?

Is this a rhetoric question? Safari is just a middleman. G offers seemingly free services in exchange of your data and in order to get a market monopoly. Then they can sell you to their advertisers, squeeze out the competition and become the only Sheriff in town. How many free lunches you have got in your career?
