Where do you even get the “media” part in it?
I’ll quote myself because I already answered that: « Media is the plural of medium, which means “intermediary” ». That’s the textbook definition of the word media, and the consensus about what it means.
Whatsapp is the middleman/platform, thus intermediary (= “medium/media”), between two people socializing. I don’t understand what you don’t understand.
A social network is social media that allows to form groups or communities. Two people communicating is not a network, the whole point of a network is interconnection between members of a group.

totally made up definition from your part
You forgot the “from your part” that is quite important. Language is a consensus, you just invented your own definition and pretend that it is the consensus.
And anyways, if “social media” and “social network” is the same, why have two different terms for it?
They’re not the same, it’s the square/rectangle thing. A social network is a kind of social media, all social medias are not social network. You could argue that Whatsapp is a social media but not a social network (but the frontier is getting blurry with groups and these kind of things).

That’s a totally made up definition from your part. Media is the plural of medium, which means “intermediary”. A social media is just the middleman that allows people to socialize. Lemmy is a social media, as well as a social network.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Jellyseerr and Overseerr merging into one, gonna be called SeerrEnglish
9 monthsNo, Jellyseerr is a selfhosted webapp where you request movies and shows, which will be searched and downloaded by your configured Sonarr/Radarr, which will populate your Jellyfin.
You can see it as a user-friendly Sonarr+Radarr front-end, that you can sync with Jellyfin users, so they can go and request content directly without you manually adding things in Radarr/Sonarr.

You can look up for:
- Setting up max authentication attemps per connection -> slows up a lot brute force attacks. If your password is strong enough, that’s already a big step to secure your server.
- Generate SSH Keys and disable password authentication -> do this only if you’re connecting through the same devices, because you won’t be able to connect from any device that has not being set up. Personally I don’t use this because I want to be able to access my server even if I’m not home and without my laptop
- Set up Crowdsec -> it’s a local service which scans logs and will block access to any suspicious IPs. It also relies on a crowdsourced list of IPs that are identified as threat and will preventively block them
CPU will draw a lot of energy just sitting idle, so if you don’t have something solid to throw at it, just leave it.
Where did you get that idea from? i7-6700k can idle at lower than 4W
