  • I have never thought of using tailscale like that ! it’s so genuis you won’t ever lock yourself out of your own server.

    Because i don’t have much experience with exposing services on the internet i am going to stay on tailscale for now. but it would be so cool to have my friends reach my server on the internet without having to deal with tailscale

    ( O . O ) , New kid on the block likes the reading recommendations especially Linux Upscale Challenge because i can easily see what skills i am missing and the areas i am already comfortable in.

    It’s way better that doom scrolling / binging animes for hours on end (which i am guilty of) .

    Your way of conversing is genuinely amazing , i wonder how you are able to express your thoughts into words in such detail

    Edit: How come here on selfhosted many people are used to linux? i thought linux was a small community! Can’t you selfhost on Win11? (I use Arch btw)


  • No no it’s fine . I still have soo many questions

    But i’m going to have to stop at this so that i can make my own research.

    Thank you . Your answers were written in near perfect english , punctuation, etc … everything was perfect in your responses . How did you do that !

    I would like to get into reading any recommendations ? any genre is fine

    Edit: Only one more question, I saw in your dashboard that you have tailscale and you also said that you use authentik.

    Do those tools normally go together ?








so im setting up a proper anime server and im kind of stuck on the metadata

been running jellyfin for a bit , had everything scan and it looked fine at first but then i noticed stuff was misclassified , wrong episode orders, some seasons (of the same show) getting merged when they shouldnt be. basically a mess

wiped everything and starting fresh. currently looking at shoko server + shokofin plugin as the proper solution instead of just trying to fix filenames manually

my situation is a bit different tho , i dont torrent. most of my stuff came from animepahe and similar sites so the files are encoded in mp4 ,

anyone gone through this with a similar source situation ? is shoko the move or is there something better for my anime :)

thanks!

Edit : Almost forgot ! if you have any tools, tips or anything really that would be helpful to a beginner like me (like tailscale) please mention them in the comments and i will check them out.


  • I think x11 is for older computers , or the ones that are not that powerful , while wayland is for capable computers . I am not sure though so someone please confirm! :)

    Edit: So many downvots :)
