Adding to the Aegis chorus.

I also use Proton Pass for some sites that aren’t as critical for me / don’t have a bunch of PII. It’s easy.

An “I Wish I Had …” addition to this: maybe start something like Wiki.js or Joplin that you will then use to document what you do as you go. Keep a record of your process so that you can work your way back if you need.

Well, shit. Guess there weren’t as many Very Bad People as we thought. Better keep busy getting the educators out.

CasaOS in a similar vein. Casa is just an app that can be installed on Linux though.

When I started, I wanted something to obfuscate all the Dockishness because I didn’t get it and just wanted to get going. It helped me get familiar with common Docker things and while I’m very far from being any sort of expert, I’m comfortable enough in a compose file now.

I still have Casa running, though I rely on it less and less. At some point maybe I’ll move everything out.

If you aren’t already self-hosting services and aren’t really comfortable with command line, you might want to look at something like CasaOS and this video: https://youtu.be/QfpZcXXGpVA

I watched it several times when building my stack and still go back to it from time to time.

Ultimately, Sonarr and Radarr take away the tedium of running your media server. You tell it what you want, it does the work of finding, obtaining, naming, and sorting. Then Jellyfin picks it up automatically. Jellyseerr, as others have said, puts a nice shiny coat of paint on it.

You can move files to new folders with Mp3Tag, too. It’s normally all I use for managing my files and metadata.

It’s all very technical. You wouldn’t understand.</s>

Oh, haha. I thought you were telling me I should rethink using a DNS adblocker.

Would you care to expand on that?

Even better: system-wide DNS adblocking on Android. Get rid of in-app ads too.

I’m in camp #2. Only my Gmail address can access my apps from outside my home. It’s a little bit of a pain to configure the rules, but once it’s done it’s done. I’ve been happy with it.

You do need to have a domain name though.

Ugh. Doesn’t IA have enough legal issues already?

I realize that the Indianapolis chief’s comments may be out of context, but why is he angry at the parents of the victims? Does he think parents should always accompany their 15 and 16 year olds out of the house? maybe save some anger for whoever actually shot those kids?

I imagine the concern is that the drugs lose their efficacy as they age, so there’s the risk that the DON’T kill.

Once upon a time. But my understanding of this:

Is that so long as you don’t use their CDN for your content, which is where the bypass cache rule comes in, you’re okay.

Given your requirements, IDK why people are recommending different VPNs and such. No way I’m going through that with my mom.

For me, the easiest route was Cloudflare Tunnel. No need to fart around with exposing ports, has some baseline security, TLS, easy for my users.

The only thing you’ll want to be sure to do is create a cache rule to bypass caching on your jellyfin domain.

Don’t get me wrong, I think we’re mostly in agreement. Though I’m not sure how big a portion of pirating is done by the self-respecting sort.

Like “It’s the HOMEBREW channel. Not to be used for playing copyrighted software.”? I mean, I appreciate that they want to play fair with other open source projects and developers, but isn’t the entire emulation community essentially “built on lies and copyright infringement”?

For what it’s worth, CasaOS isn’t actually an operating system. It absolutely works as an easy way to install and manage your self-hosted apps if you aren’t comfortable with the command line, but you still need to have a working Linux installation.

Yunohost is kind of similar as far as making things easier, but it operates as a standalone OS, so might be more what you’re looking for.

I installed Capyreader for the capybara, but stayed for how nice the app is.
