Syncthing just announced they won’t develop their Android app anymore. 🫤

Why do I keep seeing people say port forwarding is required on different topics

Because peer-to-peer connectivity works like that. That’s why it’s called peer to peer: you connect directly to the other peer, hence you need a port open and you are usually not connected directly to the internet, but through a router/switch/whatever, which in turn should forward the connection on that port to your client app.

And New Zealand is not a third world country

No, but the US is.

And don’t mention pineapple and pizza in the same sentence!

I hope not many Italians visit here, because then your inbox would be full of invectives 😁

Kakao (written cacao in Romanian) is used as a pejorative for “shitty”: “ești de cacao” - you’re shitty… So I guess we know who they are.

I do too… I mean I use borg backup + rclone + B2 … I was asking OP about personal stuff.

how about personal stuff, like photos or scanned documents?

Hmmm. A Ukrainian girl used Michael Jackson’s Thriller during her rhythmic gymnastics number. I don’t think that’s royalty free. And the US artistic swimming team used Smooth Criminal, also by Michael Jackson.

I have an account with them for two years. My torrent client is online 100% at home, but I used to browse the site from my job and never got blocked or banned, or even notified that there’s an issue. I suggest you ask in their forums.

They are not open sourcing anything. They just want people to contribute. The license is not open in any good way fit the users.

FUTO in Romanian sounds a lot like “fuck her”…

No, the nginx runs inside your network. It’s the “entry point” to it and it proxies all requests to your respective services.

Thanks for the emojis. I wouldn’t have understood the words without them.

So, no grindcore concerts? Oh, wait! There weren’t any anyway! Fuck dictators, fuck authoritarianism!

It’s not slow as in slow to respond. it’s slow when restarting… sometimes it takes 3-4 minutes until it’s up and I don’t have time for that ;-) Also, it’s a good “reason” for me to learn traefik.

Thanks for the great explanation.

So, currently, as I said, I’m using nginx proxy manager and do this:

• reverse proxy to all my services inside the internal network on http: *arr stuff, rss reader, jellyfin and some other minor things. All of them use name.local.home notation. I’m using a local DNS for this, of course.
• reverse proxy to just two services externally on https under wildcard certificates - both are non-standard names and the names are not related to the services themselves. For both these services I use Authelia with 2FA, so even if an attacker guesses the subdomain name, they’ll have to bypass that. As far as I can see in my logs, there are no attempts to breach my services. This is what I want to replicate and I’m planning on testing it.

On the other hand, You gave me a good idea about using *.lab.domain.com getting resolved by the local DNS and the main *.domain.com by my public DNS. I’ll give this a try too in the near future. Another plan for me is to start using Authentik, as I saw it’s a bit better than Authelia in some areas, even though it may be overkill for a little project - I’ll have to see.

it’s probably not what you want

What do you mean?

This looks really interesting. I’ll check it these days.
