My issue is with the scrapers pretending to be something they aren’t. Tens of thousands of requests, spread over IPs, mostly from China and Singapore but increasingly from South America.

It’s probably that VPNs are blocked on Lemmy.world. It’s linked in the sidebar: https://lemmy.world/post/11967676

So far no one has mentioned this, but typically images or other uploads only exist on the original server. When lemm.ee went down, all the content those users uploaded was lost.

The text content of posts and comments is copied across all the linked servers, but the images aren’t. Some instances will proxy images from a short term cache, but it’s far too expensive to store the images permanently.

I always assumed one day the separate mail and parcel services would become one. In my mind letters would be delivered as a parcel, so driven to your door instead of a service that passes every door.

Though another comment says in this case another company will be picking up the service.

What’s your solution to this problem for the rest of your digital life?

Ah thanks!

Don’t forget the Breezy live wallpaper, where it shows a wallpaper based on the current weather.

On my wife’s phone it has tabs along the bottom. On mine it has the same options in the hamburger menu at the top left. I have no idea why they are different 😅

I think I tried this when troubleshooting and didn’t notice a difference. Nevermind, I pretty easily taught her how to bring up the menu and switch audio streams so she can solve it herself now.

Thanks, I didn’t manage to find many options in swiftfin, you don’t know if I can enforce it for a user from the server side?

I set up Jellyfin on my mother-in-law’s TV, it’s just push play.

My mum has an Apple TV (the device, not the subscription) and on there she uses swiftfin. The only issue has been sound not working on certain audio tracks on certain movies, but in general it is easy for anyone.

Both are very familiar interfaces for anyone used to playing something from a streaming service.

How so? I have HTTPS on internal sites, I just use DNS validation to get the certificate.

What is the security risk of adding HTTPS to a site going via VPN?

I highly recommend spinning up a Nextcloud AIO instance. It’s the recommended and supported method, and it will likely run a lot nicer because all the database, redis, etc tweaking are done for you in a known good setup.

If you try that and it’s still no good, then OCIS might be worth trying depending on exactly what you are trying to achieve.

I’m also here on AIO with a great experience. It’s snappy and the website loads faster than Onedrive ever did.

I had a docker install prior to AIO being available, and there was a lot of tweaking to get it running nicely (though it did run nicely). AIO takes care of it all for you.

No backlight, no. Realistically we are just using the direction arrows/ok circle part most of the time anyway, you can easily feel it in the dark. But I’m sure other similar products with a backlight exist. I went with this one as it’s relatively cheap and has a keyboard on the back, but there are heaps of options.

Others might have suggestions. I run everyhting in docker. I then use Traefik as the reverse proxy in docker, where you add labels to the containers you want it to handle and it works things out on it’s own. I have also configured it to do certificates automatically, including automatic domain validation using a Cloudflare API.

Caddy and Nginx Proxy Manager are other popular ones that can configure HTTPS certificates for you.

You don’t have to overthink it. Choose a reverse proxy you like. If it does automatic certificates, that’s great. If not, Let’s Encypt (which most of these services use for the free certificates) have a certbot program you install and run on a cronjob to renew certificates.

I have one of these for the PC connected to the TV, but the LibreElec install works really well with the Rii i25, it’s much easier to just scroll through and find what you want to play like on a smart TV.

Owncloud Infinite Scale was a rewrite of the codebase to get away from PHP. In theory this should be better able to run on lower end hardware. People tend to say they use it if they are only wanting the file part and not all the apps. Personally I use Nextcloud because I want the apps.

Automatic certificate renewal is built into many reverse proxies, and can be done for free, so I don’t see a reason not to do it.

Nextcloud has federation of some features so I’d guess that would be a key reason you can’t change the domain (you also can’t change a Lemmy domain once set up). However, you’re using it for file sync for yourself, right? Regardless of what you pick (even Nextcloud), you could surely just set up a new instance under the new domain then move all your files over.

I don’t think it’s really true these days that it needs a lot of config. Maybe reverse proxies will do it for you automatically without much setup.

I am curious what the security risks are for HTTPS for a service that will already be accessible remotely?
