Oh that looks cool, is this to stamp things you’re making or just playing with it for fun?
- Comment on How to make my server reachable 3 months ago:
Why would you need an expensive switch for CF tunnels??
It bypasses the switch and forms a tunnel directly to the machine and you don’t need to change any configuration on the switch
Both options can expose any service as long as the machine has internet
- Comment on How to make my server reachable 3 months ago:
first your questions
Is the tunnel solution appropriate for jellyfin?
Yes but also no. the tldr is It will work, but video streaming is against CloudFlare rules. I ran this way for about 2 years with Plex just for my own use, so for about 15 hours a week on 480p and I never got my service suspended, but I’ve heard stories of others getting suspended… So just know it’s a risk
I suppose it’s OK for vaultwarden as there isnt much data being transfered?
That’s a good use of tunnels
Would it be better to run nginx proxy manager for everything or can I run both of the solutions?
You can definitely run both solutions (tunnel points to npm, npm towards to all other services), and it saves you setting up tunnels for each service
Now for my 2 cents
As others have suggested, tailscale funnel is a valid option. A reverse proxy using a VPS is also a valid option. And as I pointed out, doing the CloudFlare tunnel is an option if you’re willing to accept the risk.
My current setup is using a free Oracle VPS with a small nginx docker container forwarding all port 80 and 443 traffic through a tailscale. On the other end is a nginx proxy manager docker container that points to all my services across the network. I have my CloudFlare details configured in nginx proxy manager to generate a wildcard SSL certificate that I apply to all my local services
Inside the network, I use adguard to redirect the domain to the local LAN IP of the nginx proxy manager server to avoid traffic going through the internet.
Then all you need to do is point the domain on CloudFlare dns to the Oracle server, and you’ll have several layers of separation between the internet and your local LAN , as well as SSL certs both internally and externally on any services you share
It might not be the most elegant setup, but I share my Plex server (as well as about 30 other things) with several other people and can handle multiple 1080p streams going through it without any issue and it’s been nice and stable for over a year without any issues

- Comment on [Troubleshooting] It's the clog guy again - temp readings are bad! 6 months ago:
Well the reason I asked about the hotend was because of you’re using the little glass bead version of the thermistor, and the hotend has the hole to feed through, I had an issue on an old Frankenstein ender where it wasn’t touching the metal inside correctly… As it heated up, it would kind of move the thermistor away from the metal. I solved this by putting a DIY metal shroud on it that held it in the middle while touching the hotend all around. I also used thermal paste to make sure there was no gaps.

I changed the thermistor “sensor type” from “EPCOS 100K B57560G104F” (same as the bed) to “Generic 3950”, no change.
What actual thermistor are you using?
Also since I’m half asleep and too lazy to read the previous posts to see if you listed it, what motherboard and hotend

- Comment on How much difference does a CDN make to a fediverse instance? - PieFed 8 months ago:
For a bit of context for those not too familiar with CDN stuff. My web server hosts about 20 small business websites. None are heavy on images or video or anything else. Most sites have well under 1k visitors a day, some are under 100.
Each month CloudFlare CDN saves me between 40-60gb of traffic which is nothing my server couldn’t handle, but over a year is ~600gb in saved data so it adds up
If you had a Lemmy instance with even just 100 active users, with all the images and videos and all the federated background communications, that would add up extremely quickly.

- Comment on Spam posts 8 months ago:
It’s a shitty situation that’s causing mods and users alike a lot of frustration and might be a bit before it’s sorted.
Unfortunately I think this is something that will need to be dealt with Federation wide before it’s under control… But even then it’ll still add a lot of extra ongoing work to the mods of instances and communities just to clean up anything that gets through
- Comment on Spam posts 8 months ago:
It’s not just this community, or even just Lemmy… Mastodon and other Federation services all struggling with the same issue at the moment

- Comment on Because AI and Crypto use to much electricity, what if a law was made that they had to power it with green energy? 9 months ago:
I specifically said it’s negligible if you bothered to read past that line
- Comment on Because AI and Crypto use to much electricity, what if a law was made that they had to power it with green energy? 9 months ago:
Ethereum did approximately 1.1m transactions a day. Visa did approximately 660m a day.
Small difference lol
- Comment on Because AI and Crypto use to much electricity, what if a law was made that they had to power it with green energy? 9 months ago:
Just to expand on this, While eth is 99.99% less energy use than Bitcoin, it still added 2.8 kilotonnes of co2 which is equal to about 2000 average houses for a year.
It’s a negligible amount in the scheme of things, but a lot for a virtual currency especially when you add up all the various cryptocurrencies out there.
It wouldn’t hurt to make all the POS ones use green energy, but probably wouldn’t impact anything by itself.
Changing Bitcoin to green energy alone probably would however.
- Comment on Reason for high refresh rates? 9 months ago:
So this study was done:
opg.optica.org/jdt/abstract.cfm?uri=jdt-10-8-635
And the summary result was:
The results indicated that the moving picture quality improved more with an increase in frame rate from 60 to 120 frames per second (fps) than from 120 to 240 fps when viewing from a distance of 3 H (three times the image height).
This article goes into the depth of it: ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/8531714
And if I’m understanding the study correctly (which there’s a high chance I am as it’s 4 am and I haven’t had more than an hour sleep in 2 days) but essentially the brain perceived higher frame rates to be higher quality across all participants but with diminishing returns
This is all probably only part of the answer you’re looking for but hopefully it helps you to find the full answer

That’s what they changed it to after I had already left… At first they only gave you 2 weeks at other locations for the year
- Comment on Disney Plus begins crackdown against password sharing 9 months ago:
The Netflix one screwed me… I go to hospital 3 times a week for 5 hours of dialysis. But Netflix viewed that as a second household and wanted me to pay for a second account to use my own account in 2 locations
Now I pay for zero accounts and still get any Netflix shows I want through alternative methods
- Comment on Planning on setting up Proxmox and moving most services there. Some questions 10 months ago:
My current setup is 3x Lenovo m920q (soon to be 4) all in a proxmox cluster, along with a qnap nas with 20gb ram and 4x 8tb in raid 5.
The specs on the m920q are: I5 8500T 32gb ram 256gb sata SSD 2tb nvme SSD 1gbe nic
On each proxmox machine, I have a docker server in swarm mode and each of those vm all have the same NFS mounts pointing to the nas
On the Nas I have a normal docker installation which runs my databases
On the swarm I have over 60 docker containers, including the arr services, overseerr and two deluge instances
I have no issues with performance or read/write or timeouts.
As one of the other posters said, point all of your arr services to the same mount point as it makes it far easier for the automated stuff to work.
Put all the arr services into a single stack (or at least on a single network), that way you can just point them to the container name rather than IP, for example, in overseerr to tell it where sonarr is, you’d just say sonarr:8989 and it will make life much easier
As for proxmox, the biggest thing I’ll say from my experience, if you’re just starting out, make sure you set it’s IP and hostname to what you want right from the start… It’s a pain in the ass to change them later. So if you’re planning to use vlans or something, set them up first
