Hey! OMG thank you for posting this. I have a redmi device too from a few years ago. Tried unlocking it but ran into an issue with the boot loader - apparently it needed to be unlocked with a real SIM and the device is an Indian market device (hand me down from a relative) and doesn’t support the network bands in the market I’m in. So I could never get the process completed.

So this is a TL:DR dumb question because maybe you covered it in your write up, but I’m a noob in this space so I don’t know what I don’t know to look for - how did you unlock the bootloader?

I don’t want to run desktop Linux on it. Maybe use it as a miniPC server or as I was thinking back then - install Ubuntu mobileOS on it.

No, that was JK Rowling.

Which app did you land on?

See if you can use ZeroTier. It doesn’t use wire guard but rather their own protocol as far as I know.

They should use Fable to find hacks that work

Basically, if you put up a fake “future AI product” on there, meme-ify it, blast social media and HackerNews with it, and get people talking about it, regardless of whether it’s good talk or shit talk, you can sell it to some idiot VC for $25000000.

You can install it tomorrow.

Oh it’s just using kokoro? Lol

Ah! Yes, I’m partial to nginx too. Lovely stuff 🙂

NetBird is… VPN?

What’s NPM in this case?

Oh nice! I have that. Haven’t touched it in a while. But I’ll check it out!

I agree that the rest of plex is undergoing enshittification. But the core features are kinda the same? I use it outside my home a LOT, so I don’t know how jellyfin would work for that. I know Cloudflare tunnel has a bad relationship with streaming video. Does Tailscale too? How do you access jelly outside your home?

More of this shit game? Wow.

Yeah, most likely the Compose version is aware of the ports in use and 443 is pretty standard for the NAS to keep to itself. The direct docker process would not be aware of the default config, or env Vars.

Also, welcome to Selfhosing! 😂

Who was that dickwad?

Probably also saving 100 to 200 million euros more in servicing fees. Licenses are but one component of cost models these days for companies. Sure, they will still have to find a vendor to service their Linux systems, but there should be a lot more cost flexibility in that space.

That looks cool! And… I think we can extend it to iOS and android apps. The benefit being drag and drop simplicity and sharing sheet access, instead of shortcuts, which have always felt wonky to me.

I’ll play with it first. Thanks for the link!

Tell me more!
