Are we really gonna sit here and act like Russia doesn’t do the same governmental meddling in other countries? This is really just global politics 101, and it wasn’t worth invading a country over.

they want the conflict to end

Ukraine wants the conflict to end with its borders intact and the aggressors out of its territory. It has stated this multiple times, just like any other established country would. It shouldn’t have to give up Donbas just for Russia to cease fire for X years and then creep on forward.

If Ukraine truly wanted the conflict to end and just wanted to be bent over by Russia they would send up the white flag. Luckily they won’t; thankfully they’re fighting; hopefully they continue to push back. Just giving Russia free reign over invaded land sets a bad precedence.

Ukraine didn’t invade Russia. Some countries have hostile borders, this isn’t uncommon. Invasions to take over the government isn’t the solution, but Russia has made the bed that they’re gonna lay in. Allowing Russia to take Ukraine sets a dangerous precedence.

I’m not arguing that it hasn’t been a proxy war. Of course, NATO doesn’t want a global superpower to take over another country. It sets a precedence. Just like they(we) wouldn’t want China to freely take over Taiwan.

Sabatoged peace talks? All the peace talks included Russia taking over at least some of Ukraine’s land. At which point, they slowly move their borders, encapsulating Ukraine piece by piece, year by year. Submitting to “Peace Talks” in which Russia is able to take some kind of Ukrainian land is submission to Russia.

Ukraine didn’t invade Russia. Russia should have simply never invaded Ukraine. Ukraine can fight this with whatever they can get from around the world.

Fucking what?

It doesn’t matter what the US supplies Ukraine. It’s Ukraines fight. It’s up to Ukraine to decide to forfeit the fight or to keep fighting.

By your logic we (humanity) should just let any country invade any other country and take over it’s people just because “it’s easier to give in than fight.” Giving in would be for the benefit of the people, right? That’s what you’re saying? Fuck right off.

Russia should not have invaded Ukraine in the first place.

I keep seeing this like Donald Trump is going to eliminate genocide if elected. What a braindead comment.

No, I don’t necessarily want other people to access my Jellyfin, but my folx live out in the boons, (visiting on holidays etc.) and that was the only way I could find to reliably access my media. I guess I also come from a web background so it felt right to me. The Asustor I have really limits what I can and can’t do with it. I got it as a like, starter point since it felt out of the box. I’m also on Windows lol.

Do you have any resources for how I could grant access outside my network with a VPN, wireguard, or tailscale? I’m open to other options, I’m really just kind of fumbling my way through this idea of what I want.

I do have port 80 open as well as 443, both going to my Jellyfin HTTP/HTTPS ports respectively. HTTP seems to work for both when I access “pretty” domain and the FreeDNS URLs directly. It’s really only when I try to force HTTPS that I’m having issues.

I’ll play around with Let’s Encrypt today to see if I can get the FreeDNS cert applied. I’ve tried to use AI to assist me in learning how to do all this, it suggests I need both my “pretty” domain and the FreDNS domain tied to the same Cert, which Im unable to do at my current domain registrar, so I might also need to move that but I’ll take it one step at a time.

I’m still pretty green so I’m not sure what terminated means in this context.

My domain registrar for my “pretty” domain (not FreeDNS) allowed me to issue a Let’s Encrypt on it. It gave me the encrypted Cert code, Private Key code, and Immediate Cert code. I was able to bring them down into .crt and .key files respectively and assign them to my NAS. Jellyfin though required a PKCS #12 file so I installed openssl CLI via Choco and fed it my .crt and .key files to generate the necessary pfx file. So, right now all the cert information is tied to my “pretty” domain via my domain register. I would assume that my register and Let’s Encrypt has my private key info, but also my key files uploaded to the NAS and rolled into the PFK file.

Not sure if that helps or answers your question but that’s the info I got.

Oh no.

I decided to go with an Asustor prebuilt NAS for my first self-host. It’s got a Jellyfin app, but not an Audiobookshelf app.

Jellyfin runs on Docker, so I have the Docker app installed and running.

Audiobookshelf runs on Docker. Could I just like, spin up a container and run it? How would I access it through my Asustor? I access Jellyfin either direct or through my portal dashboard.

So many questions! Like, I lowkey love having all my media accessible in 1 place: Series, Movies, Music, Audiobooks all in one place through Jellyfin. If I split my Audiobooks into Audiobookshelf somehow, how do I keep the ease of access? Maybe spin up another Docker container and create a landing page linking both Jellyfin and Audiobookshelf? Could (should I? Can I?) do it all through the same Docker container that Jellyfin is currently run on? Are there tutorials about this?

Thank you again for the suggestion

What a poor name for a social media platform.

This is correct. It was 1% to a maximum of 15, I’m not sure if it’s changed in s2 tho

This may be way of scope for this thread but I’m not sure a better place yet to ask and learn more about how all this works. Say I run my Docker Container from a home PC, how do I make my Lemmy Instance accessible to the public? I’m familiar with web hosting but only from hosting on a simple 3rd party, where you buy a domain.

Do you have any recommended resources for getting started? I do have a secondary PC…

Which VPS do you recommend?

I was just reading through Lemmy-Ansible Github docs and wasn’t sure if a 3rd party server or a home server was going to be better to run. The documentation doesn’t feel super user-friendly or maybe I’m just not as tech-savvy as I thought.

I’m less worried aobut sensitive info and more worried about owning the data. I’m looking to avoid a sitaution where I offload all the data to a 3rd party and lose access or pricing get expensive (like a Reddit situation). I’m more worried by offloading the data to a 3rd party I can’t verify that they’re not reselling it. etc.

Do you think that the majority host from a 3rd party services or hosts from a home server?

Isn’t control limited on 3rd party hosts for security purposes?
