I can’t even pirate normal games on Windows, much less on Linux with a hypervisor.
- Comment on Auth apps 3 days ago:
There is no “overall best”, just one that works best for you. I like to keep mine on a managed encrypted server so I use Ente Auth. I think Proton has one as well.

A television would be enough. Why would you need the console?
…what kind of TV is this person buying?
- Comment on Self hosted photo options for the family? 5 days ago:
I do this with my family using Immich. Everyone has their own private library but we also have shared albums for vacations and such.
- Comment on Reliable messenger for family use? 6 days ago:
Definitely decentralization is a good idea, but it also adds a layer of complexity that many are unable to grasp. Signal is always the easiest but I have major concerns about their longevity.
- Comment on Reliable messenger for family use? 6 days ago:
Does it have to be self-hosted? I’ve had tons of problems with Matrix. Many fewer issues with XMPP.
Chatmail is probably the easiest and best bet for reliability. Deltachat is the OG but I like Arcanechat, it’s a fork with more features.

This is just the layout for your personal profile. GtS doesn’t have a full frontend, it’s intended to be used with whatever we your favorite Mastodon app is (Phandroid).
- Comment on Looking For Testers for Open Source Podcasting Application 2 weeks ago:
Sure, I mean take your pick. The point is that these are all very mature software products and OP wants to recreate the whole thing for the purpose of being integrated into the web platform. I just don’t see the value in it, personally. It’s not hard to upload files.
- Comment on Helldivers 2 is getting a new anti-cheater policy to stop you feeling bummed out and help the in-game economy 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I couldn’t give a single shit if someone else is “cheating” somehow. Arrowhead, on the other hand, probably does, as it affects their bottom line.
- Comment on Is there anyone that would be interest in doing a video call with me to show me how all this cloudflare/nginx/authentication works? I can pay 2 weeks ago:
It has nothing to do with whose setup it is and everything to do with an immense amount of specialized knowledge that requires, at the very least, months to even begin to understand to the extent that you can deploy your own server.

I genuinely don’t think most people here understand how much they know
That’s it, exactly.
- Comment on Looking For Testers for Open Source Podcasting Application 2 weeks ago:
(like Castopod but more emphasis on recording and editing)
You’re just going to have a hard time competing with what are at this point very polished audio recorders and editors like Audacity and Reaper. The integration with the hosting platform seems unnecessary.
But I wish you the best of luck!

It’s a huge problem that so many people act like it’s super easy and simple. It’s incredibly complicated to someone who is not a networking professional.

- Comment on Immich vs Ente ? 3 weeks ago:
That may not be the right terminology. I men it’s decrypted when booting and encrypted when it’s unplugged or shut off.
- Comment on Immich vs Ente ? 3 weeks ago:
The big difference is that ente is encrypted.
- Comment on What actual damage do you secure your servers against? Whats the attack vector? 3 weeks ago:
Something’s fishy, that’s for sure. Im just not sure what.
- Comment on What actual damage do you secure your servers against? Whats the attack vector? 3 weeks ago:
You’re a cyber security developer but don’t understand how a compromised device on your network compromises your entire local network?
Don’t mean to be rude but it seems like a basic principle.
- Comment on Valve open source the Steam Machine e-ink screen so you can make your own 3 weeks ago:
That’s cool that they host their own repository. Maintaining their distance from Microsoft I guess haha.
- Comment on I finally bought a domain! Now what 3 weeks ago:
That’s cool, I wasn’t really trying to get into the weeds on any particular software
- Comment on I finally bought a domain! Now what 3 weeks ago:
How do I connect my domain to my server apps?
Go to your domain provider and configure it to point requests to your server IP address. Use reverse proxy to connect those requests to a specific “app”. Most often NGINX.
I have heard the term DNS a million times but don’t really understand it
The oversimplified version is that it’s “the phone book of the internet”. Users domain requests are sent to it and then it forwards said requests to the appropriate IP address.
I’d like to let family access my media server, are there any considerations I need to make?
Are you hosting on a VPS or a home server?
How can I use one domain to access multiple services on my server?
Subdomains
Do I need to pay extra for subdomains?
No.

- Comment on The dbrand Portal themed Steam Machine case has vanished 4 weeks ago:
the most likely case (I’m speculating here) is that Valve didn’t give them permission but you would think for such a thing dbrand would have gotten it cleared first.
You mean like the dark plates were cleared? Dbrand seems to ask for forgiveness rather than permission.

Why would you think you can’t share albums? You definitely can.
