The way I do it for a family member with Tailscale is them having a couple of boxes down there (n100 with their Jellyfin server, and a RPI4 with a TVHServer) with my Tailnet signed in, and those boxes running both a “subnet router” and an "exit node"that both me and said fam member can use.

This means she has permissions to use the exit node wherever like I do to my own local LAN, to connect to her LAN and access things locally since you can assign them via the ACL’s / device perms.

I know reading docs can suck sometimes but honest to god the ones that Tailscale put up are pretty awesome.

Along with all the YT videos about it I didn’t even have to go nagging on forums to get it to work, and that’s a general first for me.

Yeah, UK here and a couple of times I get errors about not being able to connect to the relay server in London + Amsterdam also with a public IP address from my ISP, but seem to have no issues even when it shows them unable to connect to the relay servers. The external Tailnet down at fam members house is FTTP but CG-NAT’ed, and why I love how TS works around it. Somehow.

But I have to ask. Have you setup the Tailnet with this fix for IP Forwarding on a subnet router (this helps me so much for tech support on said Tailnet…) and also UDP

I’m currently on my phone but I recall having to ensure the Mini PC w/Ubuntu / Pi4 with Raspbian down at their house had both the above when bringing Tailscale, up.

Even when it works it’s much slower to connect to my server than VPN.

I wonder why.

Wireguard / TS runs faster than VPN’s, and even my family member has had a couple of devices on my Tailnet down at their place for a couple of years now, and they haven’t a clue how it works and fully believe I’m a magician.

Any background on your connection/location/devices etc?

Booooo, I don’t see no upvotes 😆

Engagement is key ;)

Agreed, and kinda confused why askandroid would need locking because of a FDroid community 🤔

The thing that gets me is I came across forums for Android just before Digg shit the bed, and migrated to /r/Android where things were all cozy with ~1K-25K members.

But as always the Help Vampires took hold, and it wasn’t until the mods realised that peeps submitting screenshots of their battery stats / problems / or some new feature that is limited to an OEM or whatever, they had to then have a clear set of rules and sister communities such as /r/AndroidQuestions / AndroidApps.

Even r/acj (RIP 😖).

I worry even if the numbers are small now, if we consolidate things into a bucket we’re likely to end up in the same situation again having to redirect the noise so to speak and going round in circles reopening it 🤷‍♀️

but IDK if I’m great at it.

Simples is best, hands down. Maybe some tooltips wouldn’t go amiss on your demo page?

But as someone else pointed out, a link to the GitHub either in the header or footer of your demo page would be ace too. It was the first thing I looked for this morning seeing your posts and had to come back to the comments to find it 🙈

Keep up the great work, and I shared between our nerd group and they have eyeballs on it. Seems a no brainer for teams collaborating online where we’ve got used of shitty Slack 🤢 Dicksword whatever.

ninjaedit: if you want some help Android app wise, give us a ping. I have a few bored devs lurking looking for app ideas ;)

I know she’s your ex and all but you haven’t shared / set them an servarr stack / Jellyfin up yet?

Booooo, Pirates of the high seas share their knowledge regardless of the person :p

I love it, and along with the folder they get dumped into being R/O means Immich (and by extension me…) can’t fugg up the timeline ;)

SMB (the protocol) works across devices and OS’s, and I use SMBSync2 to dump my photos to my NAS + off site

This has worked fine for me for years even thou the app isn’t on the Play Store anymore, and is fairly granular in regards to file types and where you wanna back them up

Do you worry about that Zero being deauthed since it uses 2.4 only still?

I ask as I’m having somewhat of a bit of lag / delay or something I need to look further into later with a Zero/DVBHAT + between my RPi5 / router which is using as its DNS provider (AdguardHome) and because I still use a 2.4GhZ camera (which has also been playing up recently…), got me thinking about having all the cams / Pi’s / SFF PC’s not only hard wired, but turning off the 2.4GhZ weefee altogether on the router due to Flippers and shit.

tldr: should I care?

You should probably try to not use a boilerplate Privacy Policy and forget to insert your Gmail firstly?

Any particular reason you can’t share magnet files right here on Lemmy instead?

Yeah me too, photos and videos I’ve recorded are the only things I’m bothered about. Backing up off-site all my arrrrr booty is redundant since I’ve shared it to a 2.1 ratio already and hopefully can download it again from people with larger storage than my family member has.

It’s how I handle backing up those photos / videos thou. I bought them a 512GB card and shoved that in a GLi AP they have down there which I sync my DCIM folder to (app was removed from Play Store since it didn’t need updating but Googles stupid policies meant it went RIP…), and I also backup that to the old Synology NAS I handed down to them. I suppose I could use Syncthing but I like that old app since the adage if it’s not broke don’t fix it applies.

Along with them having Tailscale on a Pi4 (on a UPS and is their/my backup TVHeadend server) and their little N100 media box I don’t even bother them with my meager photo collection and works good.

Your understanding is that you don’t understand what you’re trying to tout.

Which is telling. Toodle-pip beep boop

I think maybe you should just tell us what that 32GB is going to contain publicly, instead of dancing around questions with non-answers.

Seems more like cracking Adobe software like someone said above.

https://files.catbox.moe/bbzdwx.jpg

Also, fuck Adobe.

Excuse my French.

But fuck Adobe, and welcome GenP peeps 😁

Oh. Can you elaborate please?

I hadn’t heard of genp until that post, but since they’re pirates, they’re welcome on dbzer0, the instance for pirates and anarchists.

Yeah me neither.

But like you say all are welcome and where my confusion lies in having a separate community, for GenP peeps?

Ain’t we all sailing the high seas ,🤔

Seems a bit odd needing a label of what I take it as “Generation Piracy”?

Maybe I’m getting old, but it seems completely redundant and a stickied post with all the popcorn might be a better route.

Arrr

Go on then, I’ll bite.

What’s this instance community offer other than a different name?
