  protip protip:

  do it

  I’m tired of this same exact question being asked over and over and over again. so every time it’s asked I’m going to tell them to expose everything to the internet.

  if you can’t learn to search and solve your own problems you kind of deserve the obtusely wrong answers.

    Then ignore the post. I hope you never need to ask a question to someone as disgruntled as you in the future. What an asshole.

    Picture anything you’re not skilled at. You’d probably ask someone who is skilled at said thing about a problem you have. Now imagine them responding to you like this.

    The responses I received were exponentially more helpful than scouring for the information myself.

    Everyone here had experience and expertise that I did not, and I had a working solution running on my computer within 10 minutes of asking.

    Part of the purpose of a community like this is evident in posts like this.

    Your response, though funny, is damaging to the community, and unhelpful at best.

    I understand where you were coming from, but please don’t.

      lazy people being lazy.

      but do you actually understand the solution you used or did you just “follow the recipe”. knowing how to make brownies is nice, but knowing why brownies brownie allow you to make a better brownie.

      not saying don’t ask questions, but asking less generic questions help build a stronger community. Questions like, “what are the benefits to exposing jellyfin publicly using tailscale vs just opening ports?” or “how does tailscale protect my private network from attacks when it’s used to expose jellyfin publicly?”

      Your response, though funny, is damaging to the community, and unhelpful at best.

      can’t be any more damaging than asking the same question 300 different ways because “The responses I received were exponentially more helpful than scouring for the information myself”.

      we’re not your LLM agent. we’re not your search engine. we’re a community with experience and opinions. use us for that.

        Go back to your Linux forums or whatever dark hole you crawled out of.

        Did your mom ever tell you if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it at all?
