Yup:

I'll try the unsubscribe link, if that fails I'll directly email addresses like contact@company.example, info@, support@, service@, hr@, admin@, abuse@ requesting I be removed from their mailing lists.

If all those fail (I'm still getting spam later), I whois lookup the domain and send a complaint to the listed abuse address for the registrar. That typically goes through AWS who follows up asking for the email source headers to investigate.

It usually ends there.

I use https://filebrowser.org/ for this.

Nice lightweight filebrowsing/sharing with user management. Users can have their own dedicated directories, or collaborate.

You can also create share links that allow anyone with the link to view/download files. Optionally password protected.

Here's a demo you can mess with: https://demo.filebrowser.org/ User: demo Pass: demo

Used to ship auto parts from a company called 'Specialty Products Company'.

"what'd you guys sell"

"IDK... 'Products?'..."

Still not convinced they aren't a money launderer.

They won, but it's a minority govt.

Most of my web services are behind my vpn, but there are a couple I expose publicly for friends/family to use. Things like emby, ombi, and some generic file sharing with file browser.

One of these has a long custom path setup in nginx which, instead of proxying to the named service, will ask for http basic auth credentials. Use the correct host+path, then provide the correct user+pass, and you'll be served an openvpn configuration file which includes an encrypted private key. Decrypt that and you've got backdoor vpn access.

Maybe, but the homeless crackhead shambling through the lot at 3am like a zombie doesn't give a fuck and will kick that thing as hard as he can muster.

Move it anyway; at least it will have a chance instead of painting a massive target on it with those cones.

I keep vaultwarden behind a vpn so it's not exposed directly to the net. You don't need a constant connection to the server; that's only needed to add/change vault items.

This does require some planning though; it's easy to lock yourself out of your accounts when you're away, if you don't incorporate a backdoor of some kind to let yourself in in an emergency. (lost your device while away from home for example)

My normal vpn connection requires a private key and a password that's stored in my vault to decrypt it. I've setup a method for retrieving a backup set of keys using a series of usernames, emails, passwords, and undocumented paths (these are the only passwords I actually memorize); allowing me to reach vaultwarden where I can retrieve my vault with the data needed to login to everything else properly.

Thank you! You gave me the hint I needed.

I didn't know there was a quick setting button (the buttons in the notification tray) and have been struggling to find the accessibility options people have mentioned.

That button in the tray seems so much more reliable. Thanks again!

I tried. I couldn't get it to work again, so wanted to look at other options alongside looking for help/solutions.

But just as it decided to stop working, despite my efforts; it's suddenly started working again.

Sigh...

Vaultwarden is just a self-hosted server for Bitwardens clients. It's Bitwardens android client I've been having issues with.

That's an interesting option. It's the Bitwarden app I've been having issues with; though I'm not sure how much of that is Bitwardens fault vs Android itself.

I'll give that a look, thanks :)

I'm so tired of seeing this overblown reaction to ancient non-news.

Yes, there are some minor vulnerabilities in Jellyfin; but they really really aren't concerning.

Unauthenticated, a random person could potentially (with some prior knowledge of this specific issue, and some significant effort randomly generating media UUIDS to tryout) retrieve/playback some media unauthorized. THATS IT. That's the ONLY real concern. And it's one you could mitigate with a fail2ban filter if you were that worried about it.

The other 'issues' here, are the potential for your already authenticated users to attack each others settings. Who do you share your server with that you're concerned about them attacking each other???

Put this to bed and stop fussing over it. It's genuinely not worth your time or attention. Exposing Jellyfin to the net is fine.

Dev comment on the situation: (4 days ago) https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/5415#issuecomment-2825240290

The three of them are all pretty similar, achieving the same goal; whatever works for you.

I've never had an issue with Ombi, so I've stuck with it. I actually use Emby instead of Jellyfin, so Overseerr isn't an option, and I've just not had a reason to try out Jellyseer over what's already setup and working.

Prowlarr is definitely a good recommendation. I used Jackett for the longest time; but being able to modify indexers in one place, then have it propagate to the rest of the stack is so much nicer. It lists a ton of indexers to look into too, if you need more.

The arrs are pretty light weight; the memory use can add up when you run several of them with really large libraries alongside other projects, but otherwise I hardly notice them running in the background. You don't need any sort of special hardware; this stuff will run on an old laptop you shove in the corner and ignore.

The part that really takes processing power is transcoding media between formats when streaming it to clients, but that's Emby/Jellyfins job.

There's a ton of people happy to help on !selfhosted@lemmy.world if you run into troubles :)

Torrents have two options:

Ideally you use Hardlinking - This creates a 'copy' of the file that's just a link to the original data, instead of actually duplicating it. This only works when both 'copies' are kept on the same drive/filesystem; but gives you two versions so you can leave one available to seed and have one renamed and sorted away.

Failing that, it can fallback to plain duplicating the files. One copy kept to seed, and one copy sorted away.

Personally, I've switched to usenet for 99% of downloads, so seeding isn't really a thing. It's there as a fallback though.

My setup is a conglomeration of a quite a few different pieces; but they are not all required. I'd encourage you to explore, start small and expand into new pieces/areas when you feel comfortable. I started this ~8 years ago with basically 0 knowledge of hosting web services; and just built up the knowledge through exploration over time.

If all you're looking to do is watch movies, and you're happy to play the downloaded media directly on your pc (or move the files around manually, just like manual torrenting); the only piece you need is Radarr.

Once setup; You tell it what movies you want to watch, it searches for those using the indexers you've given it (YourBittorrent, TPB, and BadassTorrents for example), choses the best results out of them all based on things like upload date, seeds, quality descriptors in the title, etc. Then passes that to your torrent/usenet client. Finally it will rename and sort the files into nicely organized media folders for you, once the download client has marked it as complete.

That's what automation is for.

Whenever I come across an interesting movie/show; I open a webpage that I host, search for a title (results from imdb) and click 'add+search'.

~15min later, it's available for me, my friends, and my family to watch on my own private streaming service. (for such reliably quick downloads, I recommend usenet over torrents)

Sonarr, Radarr, Emby/Jellyfin

Other users besides me can even request content via Ombi.

Lmao, cost of doing business.
