This is awesome, I am going to imediatly get a test cluster set up when I get to work. Snapshots with FC support was the only major thing (appart from Veeam support) holding us back from switching to Proxmox. The HA improvements also sound nice!

Huh, I have the s23 and just updated yesterday. I still have it in dev options (haven’t tried enabling it though)

Wierd if they allow it for older but not newer phones on the same os version.

I would hate that though, I am really hoping to flash some other OS when Samsung stops with security updates.

Not exactly, but it looks good as well, thanks!

Semi-related: a while ago someone showed me a website that had sort of a brownish orange theme and was basically a huge list with tonnes of private trackers, with stats and ratings. I cannot seem to find the site via searching. Does anybode know what I mean and have the link?

I know, but the mobile client is lacking in features and I like antennapod (and gpodders client independence)

I have a slightly overcomplicated setup, but I use audiobookshelve to download all my podcasts for archival purposes and then antennapod on android to listen to them (the rss feeds generated by aufiobookshelve) which syncs everything to gpodder for nextcloud. I also occasionally listen to the pods via Kasts on my desktop, also synced with gpodder.

I specifically use audiobookshelve inbetween, since I have some paid podcast subscriptions and I don’t want to loose that content if I ever stop paying or they go under.

I was just in your exact Situation with my Jellyfin home server. I was using Tailscale for a while, but ran into a problem: my new server is really bad at encoding, so I can only use direct play, which uses more bandwidth than the tail scale relay servers can give.

The problem with tail scale is, I basically only ever use the relay servers because my home is cgnat and most of the time when I want to stream outside of home I am on mobile data with cgnat or at college (restrictive firewall).

My solution which I implemented last weekend was to buy the cheapest VPS I could get from my trusted provider and harden it and install nginx proxy manager and tailscale. With that, I can make a direct (no relay server) connection to my home server and proxy Jellyfin to a public domain.

I am still figuring out how to secure Jellyfin, but I have also seen some comments that Jellyfin is secure by default and therefore ok to have exposed.

Actually no, it is insecure, do not expose it to the internet. I will be adding separate authentication to access it via proxy.

I wouldn’t rely on the thief not knowing how to read linux partitions. That very well may be the case, but the person they sell your hardware to will know better, considering they are in the market of purchasing used server hardware.

I self host and my threat model is the thief selling my server to someone who knows what to do with it, but not knowing how to extract encryption keys from the memory of a running server before unpluging it. That being said I haven’t figured out encryption yet so watching this thread.

This is simultaneously cool and cursed af.

I use jellyfin for every device except for my android TV. I really like it and prefer it over Plex, but it was working fine until it suddenly stopped working a few months ago. I tried updating the app, the jellyfin container, reinstalling the app and clearing data and redoing my jellyfin instance entirely. Nothing worked, everytime I try to connect to the server via the android TV i just got an error unable to connect… and the rest is cut off. Regular android app works, idk what the problem is but it has to be client side, so I just gave up and now have plex running alongside just for the TV.

If anyone has had this Problem before I would love suggestions!

Thanks for the encouragement!

I might just do nothing, but I probably will go with crypto just to be sure.

Also don’t forget to restore test, otherwise you may as well not do backups. I have a reminder for once a year to test them, not just if it works but also what the performance is just in case.
