  Thanks, I’ll check them out.

  Thanks, I’ll take a look. Syncing is nice, but I’ll see how it fits!

  Does anyone have current recommendations for an alternative to nextcloud?

  I use it only for the below:

  • synchronize some files/folders between some of my devices
  • share files/folders with friends who don’t have an account; either with no password/account, or a password set at time of sharing
    • temporary/timed sharing so it is eventually no longer shared is nice, but not required
  • use its webui like dropbox to upload files to my server from random machines (or download them)

  And for that, nextcloud seems to be overkill.

  It says it downloads songs from your Spotify playlist using youtube. Granted its not dling from spotify, but it is downloading the things you indicate on Spotify.

  Proof-of-storage based cryptocurrency. The article says when it became non-profitable, the drives were reset so their smart stats would appear new, and sold them as such.

  Honestly, not sure. What you did looks close to what I’d expect reading the airvpn doc.

  1. Is port 6881 something unrelated? I think only local ports go there (e.g. your webui)

  2. obviously make sure you set the forwarded port in qbittorrent, then maybe try some external tool like ipleak.net which can give you a magnet link you can put in qbittorrent to see the reported geo location. Not sure if that perfectly vets the port you intend to use, though.

  3. glueten->gluetun in depends_on

  If you attach to your docker as you launch, you might see some helpful output from either qbittorrent or gluetun (I think the “-it” flags

  allows the running of a script whenever the VPN changes port (see PR github.com/qdm12/gluetun/pull/2399).

  That’s an unknown, but welcome change. My experience for protonvpn was cludgy because you effectively had to run another service to spin and update qbittorrent’s port whenever it changed. Happy to see some form of baked in support for it now.

  I think jellyfin offers DLNA support? You could enable it localy and see if your TV(s) can access files that way, without the jellyfin TV app as a middleman

  With WebOS app, I’ve noticed sometimes when watching TV shows, if I select one audio track, it will

  • go to the next episode
  • keep the desired audio track selected
  • play the original/nase starting track.

  To remedy it, I have to switch from the current selected audio track and back ¯_(ツ)_/¯

  As far as possible solutions to bad app behavior on your device - get a separate TV device (roku, etc) or some oc or SBC run a jellyfin app on it. You’d want to research first to see if you could use your existing remote somehow (e.g. maybe an IR receiver)
