I’ve been working on this on and off for a few months now. The more I learn, the deeper the hole gets. Ports and VPNs and UPNP and TCP and UDP and hosts and containers and firewalls and on and on. It’s a lot.

Many times I can’t get things working properly, if at all, and other times it works perfectly one day and then several days later, after changing absolutely nothing, no longer works.

My current goal is to get a Mobilizon instance and a Jitsi server running, to hopefully get a community started up there that meets up regularly to help each other, and to make onboarding easier.

I tried to ask for help around here and, while a few kind people did offer to help (and disappeared shortly thereafter), I was overwhelmingly lambasted for daring to ask for personal help.

I'm new to networking and self-hosting and have no idea where to start.

I’ve been slowly working my way though a list of skills to learn, both to put on my resume and as personal growth. Networking is the next thing on this list. I am not sure what I am looking for, but I want to start another project. I have built many a personal computer, but the world of networking is a pretty foreign concept...

certification options that have some value in the job market.

How much does an experienced sysadmin make?

My research leads me to believe it’s quite low.

I don’t get caught up in titles. Businesses do.

I tried to set up a Steam server for Steam Deck. I can’t figure out how to make it run the games in 16:10 800p/90 instead of 21:9 2k/144.

You realize South Park is a comedy, right?

I’ve caught a couple but they weren’t subtle about it at all. I got an email from Norton antivirus that referenced the seller directly. No shame.

You cannot turn off the proton aliases

What do you mean? Of course you can.

YouTube:

EZPZ what else ya got?

I could but it’s pretty simple. You’re the owner of that domain. Any accounts/communications with that domain can be traced back to you.

helenslunch,
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

Never heard of it.

I don’t trust anyone. You don’t have to trust them. That’s the point. Everything is open source and encrypted.

But aside from that they’ve been audited several times and they have a good reputation in the community.

helenslunch,
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

As opposed to an email address that can be traced back to you?

That’s what aliases are for.

Who’s tracking you if you have a domain?

About a thousand different companies and a few dozen governments.

helenslunch,
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

If you’re giving those companies personal info (name, phone, address, CC) they can track you regardless of what emails you use with each of them.

Good thing I’m not doing that.

And if you’re not giving them personal info I don’t see how that works.

…how what works, exactly?

Yeah so I register on both random site A and random site B with aliases @tfyuhegddssgvd.com, so what? How are they going to find out about each other?

You ever look at the Privacy Policy on any website ever? They all sell your information to data brokers.

And why risk a GDPR violation for such silly reasons?

It’s not a GDPR violation. And even if it was, that only applies inside the EU.

I already answered this question

Links from Twitter shouldn’t have any Facebook tracking info

That’s not what I’m saying.

helenslunch,
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

No it’s not, you misread my statement. It’s regarding the type of link and not the site itself.

Fuck all the way off🖕

Well. That doesn’t solve this problem. But thank you.

what does your NGINX config look like?

Can you elaborate? I don’t know how to explain beyond what’s in the OP:

I created a proxy host in NGINX to forward requests from [subdomain] to [LAN Server] on [LAN] port 8097 (Jellyfin container).

What exactly does the NGINX “login page” say?

It says NGINX and has texts fields for email and password

helenslunch,
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

Did you add your subdomain to your nginx configuration?

Yes

Posting your nginx configuration would be useful too.

Not sure what you mean, exactly. Does this help?
