Too many sweats

I just said what works best for me. Use the command line and compose files if you want.

Yep, Debian and then add Portainer - for me this is the easiest setup to manage.

Thanks, I’ve updated my comment with that link instead.

EDIT: I linked a different site before, but it now seems suspect. For what it’s worth, I checked the filehash of the apk from both sites and they matched.

It’s always been desserts or sweets

I saw a video on this exact topic a while ago, it was pretty interesting. Not enough to make me move off Arch (BTW), but I could see it used on some old hardware if I felt like tinkerin’.

FOR THE COMMONWEALTH

Get a cheap VPS on digital ocean, and make a wireguard tunnel from there to your server. Then you don’t need any open ports on your home network

People normally warn against dual booting because of the headaches it can cause - you went and fucked up with triple boot.

It’s pretty easy to do, I set it up using this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlcVx-k-02E

They reduced the free option from 5 nodes to 3 a while back. Looks like only the people who had the 5 node license received that email.

Wireguard is even easier

Why are you manually running backups? Script it and run as a cron job

Why do you need to cast to it? An Android TV device like the one I mentioned can just play that content.

Yes, I use subdomains.

I pay for one domain name in Cloudflare (e.g. awesomedomain.com), and have a single “A” record pointing to the public IP of my server, and a single “CNAME” record with a value of * that points to awesomedomain.com.

That way, any subdomain gets directed to the server, and then you setup Nginx Proxy Manager to listen for certain subdomains and where to proxy them. No need to manage any further DNS records in Cloudflare, and any changes made on the proxy don’t need any wait time for DNS records to propagate.

Nginx Proxy Manager also handles automatic SSL certs through Let’s Encrypt - I really can’t recommend it enough.

Sounds like you don’t have port forwarding setup.

I highly recommend setting up Nginx Proxy Manager and using it as a reverse proxy.

I have lots of services, but using a reverse proxy means I only have to expose 2 ports (80 & 443) and then I can serve whatever I want, like Plex, over https without a relay.

“Smart TVs” usually suck as the manufacturers tend to put in the cheapest internals that have very little future proofing/longevity.

You’re going to be infinitely better off getting some kind of android TV box (the ONN 4k from Walmart runs Google TV and it’s usually around $20) and just using the “Smart TV” as a display.

Tinc is terrible

It’s awful to setup, and hasn’t been updated in years. Anything Wireguard, or Wireguard-based will be lightyears better.

Get any old enterprise workstation (they practically give Dells away for free) and get to know Docker.

Using multiple Pis for single applications is a fool’s errand - my Optiplex was free and it is running ~30 containers with plenty of room to breathe.
