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

  • You already have a pihole. I assume you like it. You could buy a cheap minipc/NUC and set up proxmox on it and learn to set up and configure a second pihole as a virtual machine. Then you'll have a server running with the ability to expand as needed. You could look into setting up new network gear (like tp-link's omada) and run the software controller in a VM. Or you could dabble with HomeAssistant and get into smarthome. Or set up a photo management tool like Immich. Like others have said, find a problem you want to solve and use these tools!

  • 10 years is a pretty good run for an SD card.. was it an endurance SD? That’s what I’m running. Fried a non-endurance one in under a year, replaced it with an endurance and reduced log writing frequency with some config change and have been cruising for 3-4 years so far.

  • Are you willing to pay for services or do you want to stay with free stuff like you currently use?

  • Do you mean home ISP or mobile provider? What country? Who is the provider? In the US, some ISPs (especially those with monopoly) charge after ~1-1.5TB/month which is complete bullshit (fuck you comcast who was hated so much by consumers they rebranded to xfinity)

    • How is the piracy experience on an iPad ?

    Jump

  • Overall the ipad is pretty limited but I’ve found this method useful for videos specifically. Basically you use a debrid service as a torrent downloader, and then you download the file directly from them and save it on your ipad.

    You need a real-debrid account or similar. Most people on piracy forums freak out that any part of piracy cost money. I thought the same when i was a broke teen. But if you have the dough, it’s ~3€ a month to make it way easier.

    With real debrid you copy magnet links from torrent sites and download them through real debrid. For some stupid reason you can’t copy the magnet link from your favorite torrent websites on Safari in iOS. There used to be a “Shortcuts” script that worked but not last time I checked, so i end up having to do this from my computer or ask a buddy who’s on a computer. Once you get the magnet link to a torrent, you go to the torrent tab in real-debrid and paste the link/upload the torrent file. Most of the time the file is already cached by RD and become available immediately. Then you can download and play with VLC. If filed are zipped, use an unzipper there are a few. Good way to load up on movies/shows before flights, and VLC handles subtitles.

    • Now that Plex is dead, where to find servers/what platform?

    Jump

  • I’m paying $5/mo and love self hosting but i have cable internet and expensive electricity so it makes more sense to outsource.

    • Do you guys use realdebrid (and similar services) to download stuff, or to set it up to be able to stream directly without having to download anything?

    Jump

  • Curious about this as well.
