This reads a little like a LinkedIn post.

This in my experience is the hallmark of a vibe coded project. Individual pieces of code can be perfectly fine, but when you zoom out into an overall structure things get weird. Design patterns changing, same/similar problems solved in different, sometimes conflicting ways.

Been working on a project like that at work. Initially I enjoyed the change of pace, but as I realised that there’s no coherence at all in the project structure my joy turned into frustration.

To me, the most frustrating thing is that you can’t ask someone why something is done in a particular way, because no decision was ever made because no one was there to make a decision. Things just happened.

That’s very neat! It doesn’t really work for my Ente use-case, but definitely good to know!

It wasn’t rsync that started breaking because of some Claude changes, right?

I use Ente, but it’s purely because I want my images backed up in the cloud, but I don’t want the server provider to be able to mess around with them. Hence the e2ee being important to me.

I love Ente, I think it’s a great project, but for self-hosting, immich seems like the best choice to me.

I’d suggest looking into NetBird. It’s really easy to set up, and works a lot like Tailscale or Cloudflare tunnels. It’s FOSS and can be fully self hosted.

Aw man. That’s disappointing.

He looks concerned, sad, and disappointed to me.

Yeah. Zero trust VPN, akin to tailscale or cloudflare tunnels.

Is it like a TURN server that provides p2p connection or do they proxy it?

I don’t mean that as a “I can do it so obviously everyone else can” I mean it more as a “what purpose does plex even serve in this regard?”

Like what do you mean plex provides bandwidth? It’s hosted locally, no? From your network and your server? They provide software but surely plex as a company doesn’t host your media?

I use NetBird and have zero issues.

specially if they actually provide the bandwidth to let you access your media from outside home.

Why would Plex need to do that? I can access my Jellyfin and outside of my home just fine without someone else acting as a middle man.

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.

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?

Nope.

NetBird is European. The stack itself is FOSS and self-hostable instead of relying on third party projects, like Headscale. It has a reverse-proxy feature in beta that was also appealing.

NetBird also utilises Coturn for STUN and TURN, and I’ve other software that depends on Coturn, so that kind of went hand-in-hand.

I recently switched from tailscale to NetBird. Similar solution but FOSS and self-hostable.

Have you exposed the subnet the services are on, onto the Tailscale network?

I bought a Flint 2 last year. I’m very happy with it.

Nah it’s kirakira names in general. So weird made-up readings, pop culture references 光宙 (pikachuu falls under both), foreign words, and taboo/denigrating names.

For example.

• 皇帝 (koutei) meaning emperor, read as Kaiser
• 光宙 (kou, light and chuu, space) read as Pikachuu
• 愛保 (ai, to love, and go, to keep) read as Rabuho (love hotel)
• 宝冠 (takara, treasure and kanmuri, crown) read as Tiara.

I love this, thank you!
