Might be a big change but look into unraid. Dead simple. I’ll never use anything else for self hosting.

Yeah I got a free pixel watch 2 and it sucks ass having to take it off every night and morning.

That is correct! However they said “the pixel series” meaning the entire lineup of pixels.

Pixels of this generation can get up to $1500 USD. If that’s not flagship territory, I don’t know what is.

Side note: if you want to run a dedicated server and play on it with a cracked version (or just an offline mode or while MS services are down) edit the server.properties file and set online-mode=false from true. (Then restart the server if it was online)

This wipes everyone’s inventories if there was already progress, so have everyone put their items in a chest before doing this. If you use modded, have everyone unclaim their chunks or any other username-bound items like teleporters with permission systems.

All of this can be redone, reclaimed, re-bound after the change happens. This effectively changes your in-game identities on a server from a Microsoft one to an offline one. This also makes it possible to evade username-based bans.

It can pass through. There is even an official Authentik guide on the various methods specifically for Jellyfin: https://integrations.goauthentik.io/integrations/services/jellyfin/

Same with Authelia, though I don’t have a link for that on hand.

Here is the video I followed for SWAG. Note that this (and most of IBRACORP’s guides, which are all fantastic) uses Unraid as the OS, which automates a lot of the processes.

And here is a written guide by the same group to go with or replace the video if this is more your speed: https://docs.ibracorp.io/swag-2/

I’ll be honest, even for “beginners” (which I was when I started this) this is still a lot to take in. Let me know if you run into any specific questions and I can try to help you.

Yeah that’s a good point. The joke is mostly for my own enjoyment or any random user who happens to forget the jellyfin. subdomain.

I have had a few hits to /wp-admin, but cloudflare actually blocks those for me (I don’t use a tunnel but I do use them for the domain name which helps a bit). I might just shut down the main page then.

While technically not strictly necessary, it adds more robust authentication methods, and makes it easier to build out other apps if you want to in the future without having to re-do the sign-in process for all of your users. You can have things like 2fa and other things that make it harder for bots to get in and easier for users to stay in. It also makes it easier to keep track of login attempts and notice compromised accounts.

Edit: There are also alternatives like authelia that may be easier to implement. I don’t really trust most web apps to be ultra secure with internet-facing sign-in pages so it just feels like “good practice” to hide behind an auth service whose sole purpose is to be written and built securely. Plus once you learn how to set up fail2ban with an auth service, there will be no need to re-learn or re-implement it if you add a 2nd app/service. Very modular and makes testing and adding new things much easier.

Another benefit is that it has a nice GUI. I can look at logins, add services, stuff like that without touching config files which will be nice for those who don’t like wading through text files to change config.

I used several separate guides plus help from a friend. Check out space invader one’s YouTube channel. I’m not at my pc right now but I can gather some of the tutorials I used when I get back.

I kept the main domain open, but redirected it to a rickroll

SWAG reverse proxy with a custom domain+subdomain, protected by authentik and fail2ban. Easy access from anywhere once it’s set up. No vpn required, just type in the short subdomain.domain.com and sign in (or the app keeps me signed in)

Before you give up, maybe also try either a USB network adapter or (if your PC has space) an actual network card. Some of those can be incredibly affordable.

Yes, actually. I was just looking for one but there were no good options.

Wouldn’t flatpak inherently be less likely to rip the system to shreds?

Ah I haven’t tried unlocking the bootloader so I can’t help you there. I hope it’s possible because this is such a good phone for small phone lovers.

I was rocking an S22 for a while too and almost bought one of these. I have up on the S22 because of a few restrictions related to android versions.

Now I’m using the razr 2024 and LET ME TELL YOU. It’s so good. It’s a vertical flip phone but it has a square screen on the exterior. Now let me tell you my secret. I never open the phone. I never need to. Almost. But it makes the phone a mega-compact. It’s not perfect but it’s the closest thing to a “small smartphone” that I’ve been able to achieve and better for me than something like the S22. I highly recommend trying it out. It’s also very cheap.

Don’t get the fancy version, just the standard razr 2024.

I’ve had the opposite experience. It all “just worked”. Try running unraid. It makes a lot of it so much easier.

I don’t know, I was unemployed for a while and literally spent every waking hour gaming for many months straight. It was the happiest time of my life. I’d give up a lot to be so financially stable I could do that again.
