  • How the heck did you install Seafile!? I spent a whole day trying to get it to work, but there are so many moving parts and proxies behind proxies behind proxies. I managed to get the UI to load, but other parts of the app didn't work. I want to like it, but it seems pretty complicated to install... 😢

  • Why do languages sometimes have letters which don't have consistent pronunciations?

    Jump

  • For cases where it sounds like another letter, why not just use that one?

    In Spanish, words that use k instead of c tend to come from "other" languages, like Greek, Arabic, Japanese, or Russian.

    https://www.rae.es/dpd/k

    Aparece en palabras procedentes de otras lenguas en las que se ha buscado respetar la ortografía originaria, o en voces transcritas de lenguas que emplean alfabetos o sistemas de escritura distintos del nuestro, como el griego, el árabe, el japonés o el ruso

  • Ufff. Yeah, I also hit a slop mountain of videos when searching for Seafile comparisons....

  • You know. mTLS might be an option. I have a tiny number of clients. Laptops and Android phones, seems easy to install a client cert. The part I'm not sure about is TVs... Does Nvidia Shield or Firestick allow installing client certs?...

  • You can't always use the dev tools. Sometimes the sites have JavaScript that detects when you open the dev tools and then lock stuff up more.

  • Harden your server first

    Do you have any tutorials or guides on this handy?

    Use your router/server to block some counties using geoip

    Yeah, definitely all my users are in the same town/region/country as me. So this could be doable.

    Configure rate limits in Nginx

    Hm, currently using Caddy as my reverse proxy. I guess there's some module for this.

    only open ports in your firewall you really want to open

    The only port I need open is 443 for accessing Jellyfin and Immich. I can definitely block 22 from the public internet. And fuck it no automatic redirects from 80 to 443. TLS or bust.

  • GAAH! OK! I'M NOT CRAZY!

    The exact same thing is happening to my wife's phone. We're both on Pixel 8s, have the same VPN settings, but for some magic reason Tailscale breaks only her phone. She has to turn off Tailscale and reboot her phone to regain connectivity.

    These shenanigans is why I'm considering just exposing things to the public internet. I'm using Tailscale on several device types and Tailscale adds friction to all of my devices (except Arch where everything always works).

    I understand the friction is there for a good reason, but my family doesn't. They just see that Jellyfin doesn't work and that all of this is buggy and maybe they just should sign up for Netflix instead of dealing with all of these bugs.

  • “roaming” device is always connected to their “home” network by VPN

    Ah, right. Well, currently I do have my wife's and my phone on the Tailscale VPN. The issue I'm trying to solve is that the VPN app on Android (and other environments) isn't 100% bug-free. For some unknown reason, my wife frequently has issues with Tailscale. It'll break her entire networking on her phone. The only way to fix it is by rebooting her phone. I have no idea why because we have the same phone and the same settings and it works fine on my phone. I've tried turning off Tailscale, logging out, and back in, and the network won't recover. Sometimes the Tailscale app won't even trigger the SSO page to sign in. So it just stays permanently logged off.

    The Nvidia Shield also has similar issues where I have to fuss around with the VPN.

    So at this point, I feel like I'm done debugging VPN apps and maybe it would be easier for users if I expose stuff to the public internet. Obviously, it makes management for me harder, but that's ok if everything Just Works for everyone without extra steps or without having to reboot your phone every week.

  • Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

    Jump

  • i knew what i did and why i did it, two years ago, after which i never had to touch it again until now

    Hahaha, true. This is why I try to keep as many notes as possible, leave lots of comments, add READMEs, links, and otherwise document what I did and why.

    It's not perfect, it's often tedious, and I don't always do it, but when I come back 2 years later wondering why I set some random option, it's pretty nice having at least some hint.

  • site-to-site VPN configurations between routers at each location ... the router itself handle routing of specific traffic over the VPN connection, instead of needing each device to connect to the VPN individually.

    Interesting. This could help with my home network and my parent's, but I also need to handle cases where I don't control the network. I have clients that are phones. My family would expect that the services keep working even if they're in a different city on cellular or at a friend's house.

  • What kinds of things are you planning to expose?

    Primarily Jellyfin and Immich.

    What I expose I hide behind a reverse proxy with IP whitelists.

    Do all your clients have fixed IPs? I have some clients that are phones or laptops, but I would imagine those change as people drive around to different cities or connect to different coffee shop WiFi.

  • I am kinda interested in WireGuard, but how does it work with multiple non-PC devices on different networks? Tailscale runs seamlessly on my Arch laptop, but Android, TVs, and streaming sticks have hiccups from time to time.

    I have services that I want to share with my non-techie family. If a service stops working, they suck at debugging and fixing the issue on their own.

  • Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

    Jump

  • you understand it more when you build something by yourself, so it’s easier for you to fix it when it’s broken.

    For me, this is a big selling point. Instead of trying to figure out why someone did something or wrestling with their decisions, I know what I did, why I did it, and if necessary, and I can change it.
