  Thanks a lot for the update! Disappointing that it wouldn’t work behind just CloudFlare, I know my parents use an Apple TV to watch stuff. While I don’t happen to need this right now, it’s very useful to know in case some additional restrictions happen.

  Never even heard of Hertzner, but I’m super curious about your results, I’m currently running a proxy with CloudFlare on some services but not on Plex

  Everything I tried was annoying to use and didn’t do what I wanted for some reason, so I just made my own.

  • I copy and pasted a GitHub Action from the official docs which generates a Docker image and publishes it to GitHub Packages.
  • On the server, I use Portainer’s “Stacks” (which are just Docker Compose files) for all programs and games, so I just added a new stack which uses my image from GitHub.
  • The server also has Watchtower installed on it (inside a container of course), which updates all containers, including the dashboard.
  • Portainer and Watchtower both share the same Docker configuration, so I only need to configure my GitHub access token in one place (e.g., Portainer’s UI).

  I feel like I’ve been seeing more posts and comments though, and looking at those, they seem to still be rising (although probably influenced by bots).

  I wonder if the spike of active user may be caused by people first trying it out (then giving up), followed up by people making several accounts on different instances before settling for one or two.
