This was the answer, called up and got them to unblock ports 80 and 443 (they actually unblocked them all). Thanks alot!

Onyx Boox Leaf 2, and use the OPDS feature of calibre(web) to download books and read them, all within the KOReader app

Alright that makes sense, do you know how to solve that if that webapp is nextcloud aio?

Thanks for the reply, yeah that’s what I thought it was meant to do, sorry for the confusion

Do you have any idea why setting it on would lead to “this page isn’t redirecting properly” in firefox?

Trying out Authentik now, and having some more issues… Following various guides I can get to a stage where I access the Authentik UI locally, but when I go into NPM Advanced tab and add the stuff to forward auth requests to Authentic (proxy pass and whatnot), this causes NPM to have that proxy host set to Offline…

I think I might just take a break and get onto this stuff later. I don’t know if I’m smart enough for this yet (I’m a data scientist not a computer scientist!!) Still got a lot to learn

When I connect with it off, I am able to connect. If I use https://cloud… It connects, when I use http://cloud… The address bar changes to https and connects like normal.

It just feels weird using it with force SSL off, as if even though I’m always connecting with https I’m still leaking passwords

Nextcloud, memories app for desktop, photos-nc for android

Maybe check outCromite, a bromite fork that’s updated still.

I use mull for regular browsing, but anything important, and by default, I use Vanadium (grapheneos only). At least until firefox gets site isolation on mobile

Thanks for the advice! I’d personally like to stay away from big companies, I made the server in the first place to escape from them, so it’d be weird for me to still use them. Maybe if I had a password manager or something sensetive I’d go with external so though

Problems I was having were just with the setup, problems with redis and mariadb, and getting them all linked together. I can attach some relevant logs if you’re willing to help, thanks!!!

Ah yeah forgot to say I’m using nginx proxy manager already, screw chucking all that stuff on the internet without a reverse proxy

Will look into authentik though!!

I could, I do find it very convenient having my services exposed though. Makes it easy to connect to the calibre opds from my e-reader, don’t have to have wireguard fight with mullvad etc…

But maybe I will just switch to vpn rather than exposed, the security would take a load off my shoulders

Org-mode

Sorry, but I sincerely hope you just don’t selfhost Vaultwarden.

Are you saying this because i dont know much about firewalls and VPNs right now? Or because i dont have a good backup solution? Or something else?

Currently my backup solution might not be the nicest, but im taking regular backups on the same laptop, copying those onto an external HD, and syncing that onto my main PC, hopefully whoch should be enough

Im assuming youd recommend using something like watchtower then? Or would you say its better to just ssh in and docker pull every now and then?

Yeah i could definitely do that, however would that cause much trouble regarding using the nextcloud android app, or my ereader which uses OPDS to get books from calibre? I get thatd id have to sign into the VPN, but i already use mullvad on everything.

Sorry, just dont know much about personal VPNs

Have you got any resources regarding setting up a firewall? I forgot about fail2ban though, gotta set that up soon

Yeah that was something i was worried about too, not like my server is an proper rig. Its just a shitty laptop with a slow ass HDD, and who knows how much life its got

Was meant to get back to you, sorry

Didnt work for me unfortunately… maybe some setting in the backup was carried over and thats the problem. But i think the actual problem is hardware/setup based rather than config/software. Might invest in a less shit computer soon haha

Will get back to you later on running top, but i installed it using apt so hopefully shouldnt be snap. Also, surely it shouldnt be using so much resources right? Its at the point now where i open Nextcloud Mobile, and a single image will never load. This cant be too much load on the server

Might have to try squeezing out a backup and giving it a go
