I have 6 domain renewal notices sitting in my Spam folder now.

Another recent one has been notices supposedly from my email provider saying it’s time to renew. That one almost got me.

I really wish GPG signing of emails had actually taken off. Would have solved this type of problem completely.

Looks nice. Shame I can’t get it in the US.

Isn’t that basically SyncThing? I thought it was BitTorrent under the hood.

I tend to change volumes to bind mounts. Makes it easier to backup or move the service.

Might want to avoid using relative paths with bind mounts and declare the full path. It has caused me headaches before.

I’ll take your word for it. I could never wrap my head around PowerShell back when I still had a Windows install. Whenever I could, I would use either the DOS prompt or WSL/Ubuntu. I may not be great at Bash or DOS but at least I’m not having to resort to cargo culting to do anything. Probably a sign I’m getting old.

That it can fit on a 5 1/4" floppy with room to spare might have been important once, but I think we are long past that point. Micro takes 5 MB, Nano 3.

Looking into it further it looks a bit like NIH syndrome. Here’s Microsoft’s explanation: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/edit-is-now-open-source/

Ok. Was this just a case of someone seeing if they can? Because my only thought here is “Why?”

Might take a look at NextCloud though it may be overkill as it’s intended to be a full Google Cloud or Office365 replacement. On the other hand, it is modular so you only have to set up what you actually need.

There’s a couple of options.

I’ve used Grocy. It’s not intended for that particular use case but it would work. More for Grocery management.

Not crazy about the plastic body or the range but definitely interested. Lord knows there’s not any other options in that price range. Not in the US anyway.

Depends on your threat model, but you’re probably fairly secure from remote unauthorized access right now.

Given that I’m American, I would put the *arr stack behind a dedicated VPN container like gluetun and set Gluetun up using a “no logs” VPN.

For remote access, Tailscale can probably get around that double NAT. If you have it on your devices as well as your server, you won’t necessarily need to expose anything publicly.

If that’s not an option, you could set up an external VPS to run a reverse proxy (Caddy perhaps) and use the Tailscale connection to connect the VPS to your home server. There are fully self hosted ways to do this (Headscale comes to mind), but Tailscale is how I personally would solve this.

They load. I have to specify http:// to get it to work though.

I’ve never done it myself but this may be what you’re looking for.

Please! That would be very helpful. I tried but got tired of banging my head against a wall. I’d like to see how you approached it.

It’s doable. I personally run my Jellyfin instance publicly available and there’s maybe 3 people who use it regularly. With my internet connection, WAN side users are limited to about 720p but I’ve had the 3 of us all playing different media at the same time on occasion. The main limiting factors on the number of simultaneously active users is how much upload bandwidth you have and how quickly you can transcode video files. Any 10 year old box will be able to handle 1 or 2 users at a time provided it doesn’t need to do a bunch of transcoding. If your building a box, would use a 11th or 12 gen Intel or if you must go AMD, have a graphics card to handle the transcoding. The “build a box” route can probably handle 4 or 5 simultaneous users, possibly more depending on your hardware choices. The main limiting factor in that case would be your upload.

Its a bot account. It also seems to have at least 15 Lemmy accounts. I’ve just started blocking them.

Now if only it were launching at that price in the US.

I’ve always used NameCheap. Can’t speak to their ethics, but customer support has been excellent the few times I’ve needed it.

Before I grew enough spare capacity at home to self host our family’s server, I was using MCPro hosting. It was fine and at the time, cheap. I understand they’ve been bought by Apex now though. No experience with them.

Not OP but if I had to guess, probably Turnkey File Server.
