How are you accessing Jellyfin? Local only, via VPN and/or reverse proxy? Anything else you have changed on the system in general?

The whole repo is such a mess.

First it was the source code, than a Python rewrite and not it’s “Claw Code”. The issues are just AI spam. I’m really curious where this is going.

Ionos is part of United Internet which is the largest internet provider besides Telekom in Europe.

Borg an Restic should both be able to do that. I personally use Borg on my Storagebox and have scripts on all my devices that push periodic backups.

True, but it’s still in beta and Pangolin has other useful features like built in geoblocking and authentication.

This might be an odd setup, but I prefer Pangolin for the easy deployment of a combined Reverse Proxy and VPN but also wanted to play around with Netbird, which provides a mesh VPN.

So I have Pangolin installed on a VPS and connected to my home server which is running the Newt client.
Then I’ve installed Netbird on my home server using the Self-hosting Quickstart Guide. I choose “Other/Manual” when it came to selecting a Reverse Proxy and created the respective public resource in Pangolin for your subdomain. Just add multiple targets for multiple endpoints and enable Advanced Mode:

Just make sure to select h2c instead of http for /signalexchange.SignalExchange and /management.ManagementService. And obviously replace the 192.168.178.123 with your IP address.

Then start the docker-compose.yml and browse to your subdomain to register your initial account. Done!

Arch for Gaming/Desktop, Debian for Server/Proxmox/VPS.

This. I just moved from Nginx Proxy Manager + Headscale/Tailscale to Pangolin and it’s incredibly easy.

Yes, but I also want to run the client in a container and the docs recommend to run the container using network_mode: host. And I suspect this creates a conflict in networks. So I want to have Netbird server, Netbird client and Nginx Proxy Manager all in containers share the same network.

I just installed NetBird on a VPS using the Self-Hosting Quickstart Guide. Now I want to connect the VPS using Netbird to another client. When I also use Docker to register the VPS as a Netbird peer the whole network gets messed up because now the server and the client try to manage the network. So how am I supposed to register the VPS as a netbird peer to connect it to other peers?

It’s not primarily made for monitoring, but Dockhand has a lot of great monitoring for your whole host and for individual containers.

+1 I love the easy integration of Gotify.

If your current setup is satisfying your needs don’t change it. Linux Mint is quite similar to Debian when it comes to the base.
If you want to try and learn new thing maybe look into Bash scripting or Docker. Think of something useful you would like to have and try creating it.
