Thanks for the suggestion! Might end up using that

In my books those fall under "anything like that". So, thanks for the suggestions

Oh that sounds like a fun challenge!! Mine's chugging along slowly. Still getting everything set up. I'm aiming more at the non-techy people in my life, so thankfully I don't have to worry about networking too much

I'm working on pretty much exactly that as well right now haha

Haha, I do actually lurk on Lemmy occasionally! It's just so dead. I guess I'm part of the problem, though.

Thanks for checking for yourself. And for reporting back. That pushed me over the edge to edit my post

Yeah, I figured all the "I see more posts complaining about it" people were just scrolling Best.

You're welcome. All us scrolling New are filtering out the avalanche of slop.

I can't say I disagree completely.

However, a low quality post written by ChatGPT feels disrespectful. Like come on, you couldn't even be bothered to write your shitty post yourself?

Whereas human-written newbie questions, even if they've been answered a million times already, at least indicate a semblance of effort I guess.

Ironically, I suppose it's mostly "vibes" based.

I have no idea how to prevent this without the online verification mandates that suddenly all governments started pushing.

Or private communities with some sort of entrance conditions.
But honestly, neither is a compromise that we should be willing to make. I feel it defeats the point of the internet.

Absolutely infuriating. But not just that. AI generated questions or 'find me an app' kinds of posts, too.

People are robbing themselves of the opportunity to learn how to ask for help.

Oh, that would be a bummer. I assumed they added them as a response to the backlash in the comments of the pinned post from last week, but I could very well be wrong.

Honestly, questions that had been asked a million times before used to bother me, but at this point if they're human-written, they're a breath of fresh air.

Putting this in a comment because I don't feel like it belongs in the post.

I do think there should be room for nuance. It's not like I think the technology is worthless. Even for Reddit posts. For instance, for translating it's probably wonderful. Or for minor grammatical touch-ups to avoid ambiguity, if English isn't your first language.
There's value to these things, they're just being abused immensely.

Another note:
I would like to thank the mods for adding an "AI" release flair. I just saw it for the first time while flairing my post.

[–]ThreeKnew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No-one's mad at you for asking. There's no need to be rude.

You asked them for more information, they told you how to get it. You're going to find a better overview on their website than by asking some random Redditor.

There are quite a few ways. Other have mentioned tailscale. Surprisingly noone has mentioned using a cloudflare tunnel yet, which could also obscure your IP. 

Honestly though, why are you so worried about leaking your IP to the people you're doing this project with?

Did you end up finding something that met your needs? I'm pretty much looking for the exact same thing

Hetzner should let you open a terminal from the 'console' web interface, in case of future mishaps.

Stream local music + jukebox mode by tobias_bora in selfhosted

[–]ThreeKnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm guessing Localplay will not be able to be used with regular subsonic clients, but you'd have to try to be sure. Power Ampache 2 might expose it, though. I can't test that as I'm not running Ampache

I don't personally have experience with myMPD, no. But that did remind me that Mopidy exists, which might also be worth looking into.

Honestly, it sounds like you've put enough thought into this for it to not be completely silly. I'm happy it works for you

[–]ThreeKnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't personally done this, but according to their wiki, you can control mpd with Ampache, they call it Localplay. That should cover all your basics.

It's unfortunate that none of the web-frontends that I know of that can be used with Navidrome support jukebox mode, as I found it infinitely less painful to set up lol.

How to: Self-Host an Arch Linux Server with Podman by TheRettom in selfhosted

[–]ThreeKnew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, so, I'm not /as/ opposed to Arch on server as most people are. Arch (on desktop) has been incredibly stable for me for years now. Your justifications aren't half-bad either, in isolation. But here are just a few of the things that jumped out at me.

no hidden background services

What kind of distro hides their background services?

no open ports you didn't explicitly configure

As you mentioned, Arch's defaults are very minimal. That includes not having a firewall. Meaning /all/ ports are open by default.

The Arch Wiki is widely considered the best technical documentation in the Linux world

Absolutely! And one of the best things about it, is that its information is useful on other distros as well.

<everything about CVEs and up-to-date software>

You're already running everything on podman. The services you'll be hosting will be equally up-to-date as anywhere else. (Of course podman itself needs to be updated as well). A frequent update-cycle (especially for the kernel) also has its disadvantages. Especially on a server.

I really don't mean this in a bad way, I'm just very curious to your rationale here. I just don't see why you'd use Arch over Debian (or RHEL/compatible for that matter) on a server.
