- Comment on Readarr alternative suggestions? 17 hours ago:
Apparently the folks from the rreading-glasses accuse Chaptarr of being vibe coded can find it directly in their README.
For the unaware rreading-glasses is a rebuilt metadata server for Readarr.
- Comment on Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced 4 days ago:
If it connects to the internet, you can change the DNS to whatever you want it to be. If Tim over at Apple had his way I’m sure he’d force his ‘i’ devices to use a “secure Apple DNS” server.
- Comment on Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced 4 days ago:
Depends on the host name, I’m sure there is a PiHole blocklist out in the wild but likely only targets telemetry.

PSA Se7enSins has helped me find some really obscure and cool mods in the past, they’ve been around for decades. Worth keeping an eye on relevant forums.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
Everyone here is telling you to ditch Arch for Debian, I absolutely agree with them however, if you’re so hell bent on having an Arch server than install Proxmox VE to the host and run both Debian and Arch, getting it working in Debian first then try to replicate it with Arch, compare the differences.
- Comment on How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves? 1 week ago:
This gave me a chuckle, my server is about 4’ away from my cabinet, pretty sure the thief is prioritizing in that situation.
- Comment on Suggestions to have a home server VPN and and Mullvad at the same time? 1 week ago:
I’m a bit confused on this comment here:
Additionally, I’d prefer not to not do something like: Computer -> Home VPN -> Mullvad server -> destination, as my upload speed is pretty bad and this would throttle every non-local connection
Because you also mention this:
Which is would be the same thing, no? You’re just making a connection to the Mullvad server first then your home network? ___ I’ll share my experience but it looks like it’s not the solution you’re looking for, I opted to use my Asus WRT Router w/ [Merlin Firmware](https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/) to host my VPN server, the Merlin Firmware lets me connect to 5 different VPN clients at a time, I use the “VPN Director” feature to route my VPN Server through one of the 5 different clients effectively creating the multi-hop. I personally haven’t noticed much degradation in regard to connection speeds but at the same time I don’t constantly hop VPN clients, I typically stick with the server closest to me.
- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 1 week ago:
If I’m not mistaken Emby started to do some sketchy stuff which birthed Jellyfin.

This post might as well encourage people to go and harass them, it genuinely isn’t a good look for Lemmy as a whole.
- Comment on Microsoft still can't convince folks to upgrade to Windows 11 3 weeks ago:
You’ll likely need to purge your Nvidia drivers after upgrading to 13, I had two machines fail to start NvidiaPersistence.d.service (or something like that) which caused the machines to fail on boot-up.
Reinstalled the drivers with
sudo apt install nvidia-driver nvidia-cuda-dev nvidia-cuda-toolkitif you’re looking for raytracing don’t forget to installlibnvoptix1. - Comment on bruh, i just realised that the last time i played Garrys Mod,Obama was still president lmao 3 weeks ago:
Garry’s Mod was fun, now the only servers that have people in them got ridiculous rulesets and the constant begging for donations & locking superior weapons behind a paywall gets old real quick.
Not hard to spin up a docker container for a Garry’s mod server, these server hosters are taking their position for granted.
- Comment on What is the current state of Matrix? 4 weeks ago:
As the end use my biggest gripe with Matrix is with voice communications, it’s almost as if you sneeze wrong you’ll lose connection to the voice group, screen sharing is horrible, no audio and the window is not adjustable, cant even make it full screen.
Now they’re reducing people’s usage by putting in a subscription and locking certain features, at least on the home server.
Disappointed nonetheless.
- Comment on What is the first electronic device kids get these days? (Desktop, Laptop, Tablet, Phone, Game consoles?) 4 weeks ago:
Respectfully I disagree with your view, get a device suited for them, install relevant software & apps that work locally, enable parental permissions or some other policy manager and disable internet access out right.
Ease off that restriction as they age, use a DNS sinkhole to prevent access to certain sites.
- Comment on Does anyone use a VPN to subvert the Netflix household device fencing? 4 weeks ago:
if you use the Netflix application chances are they’ll detect the virtual network on your system and if it’s in use, most people don’t seem to realize that applications have direct access to your hardware unless it’s containerized or virtualized.
- Comment on Does anyone use a VPN to subvert the Netflix household device fencing? 4 weeks ago:
EDIT: We get it, you like torrenting. Let’s keep comments on topic folks.
To be fair, you posted in the self-hosted community discussing an Issue for proprietary software.
- Comment on I'm playing Gears of War Reloaded, and I have a question. Will there be some point when the Chainsaw I've had for hours actually gets explained to me? 4 weeks ago:
I’m not too heavy into gears of war lore but I would assume the Retro Lancer, which has a bayonet in lieu of a chainsaw and was introduced in Gears of War 3, was the precursor to the modern lancer.
- Comment on Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that 4 weeks ago:
Should put a note on your blog that Lidarr’s Metadata database is being rebuilt, currently the Lidarr APi spits a bunch of 5xx errors when searching for artists/albums/etc.
github.com/Lidarr/Lidarr/issues/5498
Help the Lidarr team rebuild the Database by running this application:
github.com/DeviantEng/lidarr-cache-warmer
It’ll search every artist in your library so that the new database has a cache to quickly call upon.

This should work for you, just change the volume mounts so that they associate with your setup.
- Comment on Your fav guide/method for securing Jellyfin? 1 month ago:
I opted to remove Jellyfins default login form and require Keycloak for SSO, my Jellyfin instance is technically facing the internet but my reverse proxy has Fail2Ban in front of it blocking non-whitelisted IP’s, makes it easier to share with other people this way.
- Comment on Microsoft breaks Windows reset and recovery 1 month ago:
That really depends on you, keep in mind a lot of distro’s like Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Kali Linux are based off of Debian just using different repositories and with system files in different locations.
I personally went with Debian and have had little to no complaints, definitely BASH/Shell/Terminal heavy so if you’re not willing to learn BASH I would probably use an Immutable Distro that you can’t easily break like Bazzite.

FNU = First Name Unknown
- Comment on Need help for setting up a VPN project 1 month ago:
This is absolutely possible as I do it myself however, executed entirely differently, my ASUS WRT Router with Merlin firmware handles the VPN server and it routes the IP range through my VPN provider (Proton).
Didn’t have to mess with config files or anything, install the custom firmware and created a rule for the routing.
- Comment on Plex server patching required 1 month ago:
Jellyfin thankfully lets you download content offline alternatively they just text me the IP and I whitelist it then blacklist it a week later, granted if I remember.
