AI disclosure. The description reads like AI with all of those emotes. Looks really unprofessional.

Sounds almost like the corpos have a monopoly on email.

What shoes CBH even mean? I feel like I’ve never seen it.
- Comment on Strategies and advice for transitioning out of Apple's ecosystem of devices? 1 week ago:
I recently put Graphene on my no-longer work phone. I think what makes it extra tough is that it feels familiar and simultaneously alien.
There’s an action centre, and you can edit toggles, but there are no editable sliders for audio and brightness. A lot of the icons feel like buttons but aren’t.
Then there’s the gestures. They feel a little off. The back motion can be done forward too, and there’s no preview of what “back” is. And I loathe the settings pane.
Graphene is nice, but I still dislike Android.
- Comment on Can anyone suggest any self-built Apple TV alternatives I currently use an Ap 1 week ago:
I hooked my laptop up to the TV yesterday and learned that the Jellyfin app can remote control a browser session. It was great.

Looking forward to it, I’m invested now haha!

I think in that case you should just put your travel router as a user of the group that accesses the home network.
If I set my phone to be a WiFi hotspot with my Netbird VPN on, my tablet can connect to my phone’s hotspot and access my home network even if my tablet doesn’t have the VPN on it.
So in that case I guess the router would be a peer, yeah!
Did you manage to get it working in the end?
- Comment on Help with Netbird Networks 3 weeks ago:
Right? If someone wants to use an LLM to troubleshoot they’d do that. Making a (unmarked) bot account to essentially fulfil that function is a bit redundant.
- Comment on Help with Netbird Networks 3 weeks ago:
I have Netbird hosted on my VPS, and have my home server act as a routing exit node, as well as the way I access stuff on my home network.
In essence, my setup looks like this
- Network Routing > Networks, I’ve set up a network called
Home Network LANwhich exposes a Subnet for my home network, lit. the IPs I use locally. (192.168…) - Access Control > Groups I have a group called
Home Network Users, within which I’ve put the devices that should be able to access the home network (my phone, my laptop, not the servers). - Access Control > Policies sets up a policy called
Home Network Access, which has Home Users as a source, and the Home Network LAN as a destination.
I think that’s about it, really. If I am outside of my home network, I connect my Netbird VPN and I can access any and all things on my home network using the direct internal network IPs from anywhere. I have also set up the home server as a routing exit node, and added an Adguard instance as a DNS server so I can use my private network domains as well.
So basically I can connect to my Jellyfin instance either via direct home-IP (
192.168.x.5or whatever) or viajellyfin.home.arpaI am not sure your travel router needs to be a routing peer.
I am also rubbish at network things, so if you have follow-up questions I’ll probably struggle to understand them.

Yeah. It had upwards of 40 comments in the < 24h it was running. It wasn’t up-front about it though. Initially I thought it was just some person feeding questions into an LLM and pasting the responses. I guess it’s not very different from that, though.
- Comment on Help with Netbird Networks 3 weeks ago:
Since you are an AI project, shouldn’t you be disclosing that you’re an LLM in each of your comments? This community has rules regarding AI projects after all, and users deserve to know that your input isn’t necessarily rooted in reality and can be entirely hallucinated.
- Comment on Help with Netbird Networks 3 weeks ago:
Do you post anything yourself? You just look like an LLM vomiting onto the fediverse.

I’d also put mine in the basement, but I live in a flat.
- Comment on Self hosting as a gift 3 weeks ago:
How can we live life outside bigtech ecosystems, except for self hosting?
I’ve no arguments against this. It’d be terribly hypocritical on account of where we’re having this discussion, as well as why we’re both here. I obviously also have an interest in self-hosting. That said, I do think that installing containers is just a fairly small part of the whole, and quite different from running a plug-and-play OS like Linux Mint. There’s also the troubleshooting, and networking nonsense, and hands-on migrations when something big changes.
There’s self-hosted software out there I don’t want to self host because it’s just too much work. For example I use a Hetzner managed instance of NextCloud to replace Google Drive, and that still required me to set up and configure Collabora in a container and make those two play nice.
You know your partner best yourself, if you think they’re ready for this and that this is something that they’d appreciate then go for it. The “uninterested in software” bit would have me a bit hesitant. They might appreciate it, but say you break up down the line, what happens then?
I used to date this guy who always had trouble with his computer. I’d come over and help troubleshoot, fix things up. Eventually he got some spare cash and decided he wanted a new computer. I suggested we put together a custom one. We’ve since broken up, but he still asks for help with his computers from time to time. We’re still good friends - jag tror att det är relativt vanligt här i Norden, vi brukar inte vara så explosivt dramatiska - so I don’t have a problem with it.
It’s really sweet that you want to give your partner a slice of freedom, and had I been your partner I’d be very appreciative. You do risk kind of giving them a bunch of labour that they’re not very interested in. Like I said though, you know your partner best yourself.
- Comment on Self hosting as a gift 3 weeks ago:
This sounds either like you’re trying to gift someone a bunch of labour, or you’re getting something for yourself in the guise of giving it to someone else.
Get yourself a home server and get your loved one something for them.

I don’t know why you are annoyed by this.
I don’t read it as annoyance. It’s a rundown of them tracking down who is doing it and what it actually is. They’re just flagging for it.

- Comment on Would you say, it is worth it to pay for a VPS for Pangolin? Hey, 1 month ago:
If FOSS is a concern you could look into NetBird. They also have a hosted alternative but as far as I know the entire stack is FOSS.
It’d still be a matter of trusting a private company though.

Haha, I actually use the regular phi95 theme, mostly because it is a little nostalgic. :)

Copyparty. It’s not pretty but it’s lightweight and does a lot. Including the “single docker compose” setup you’re after.

- Comment on What us the best way to add remote access to my servers? 8 months ago:
It uses Traefik by default, actually. I’m struggling to get the reverse proxy function to cooperate with me still hosting other things on the VPS. I use it not just as my Netbird coordinator, but also to host my Forge and site.
- Comment on What us the best way to add remote access to my servers? 8 months ago:
It’s nice, the quickstart script is super easy to use and gets you started… well quickly. I’m still figuring the reverse proxy bit out, but it fully replaced tailscale for me in about ~10 minutes?
