During a one-month period, Mikhail contributed to the immich-app/immich repository, focusing on a critical data-integrity improvement for image uploads. He addressed a bug where image timestamps were incorrectly set by switching the logic to use file modification time (mtime) instead of change time (ctime), ensuring that uploaded images reflect their actual creation dates. This adjustment improved metadata accuracy, which is essential for reliable gallery sorting, exports, and analytics across devices and platforms. Mikhail applied his expertise in Dart, Flutter, and mobile development to implement this fix, demonstrating attention to cross-platform consistency and the nuanced handling of file metadata.
