Exactly. Separate configuration and metadata from data. If the metadata DB is relatively small, I’ll stick it on my SSD and backup to my HDD on a schedule.

Not something so complex that it requires docker.

I disagree. Docker makes things a lot easier and I’m going to use it regardless.

My rule is pretty simple: not PHP. PHP requires configuring a web server, so either that’s embedded in the docker image, (violates the “do one thing” rule of docker) or it’s pushed onto the user. This falls under the dependencies part, but I uniquely hate dealing with standalone web servers and I don’t mind configuring databases, so I called it out.

I actually tried switching to OCIS from Nextcloud specifically to avoid PHP, but OCIS is even more complex so I bailed.

Give me an example configuration that works out of the box and detailed documentation about options and I’ll be happy. Don’t make me configure a web server any particular way, and do let me handle TLS myself. If you do that, I’ll probably check it out.

I just run Nextcloud on my NAS, which is just my old desktop PC. Nextcloud is just a docker container and it points to where I mount the NAS partition.

Do both TCP and UDP.

Use a reverse proxy, like nginx, HAProxy, etc. It’ll listen on your MC server’s port and forward all data to your desktop. Then run either your MC server or the reverse proxy on your server.

There’s probably something you can do in Tailscale to change what a logical name points to, but this can work as a backup if you can’t figure that out.

Yeah, I think Syncthing + maybe a port forward should work. So you’d always access it at serverIP:port, but the traffic could be tunneled to your desktop instead if that’s where it’s running. Basically, the process would be:

1. stop MC on server, start TCP tunnel from server -> desktop
2. ensure files are copied (maybe Syncthing?)
3. start MC on desktop

Then later, reverse the process.

Yes, it’s not the same, but it can be used to bridge private addresses onto a public network, which is basically what NAT is trying to achieve. If you’re running an ISP and don’t want customers to be directly accessible from the internet, it seems reasonable. In an ISP setup, you would issue private net addresses and just not do the translation if the customer doesn’t pay.

Yes, you can achieve the same thing another way, but I could see them deciding to issue private net addresses so customers don’t expect public routing without paying, whereas issuing regular public IPv6 addresses makes it clear that the block is entirely artificial.

Sure, but NPTv6 exists, and I wouldn’t put it past an ISP to do something like that.

Yup, that’s what I did. I even have my TLS servers running on my LAN as well, so once my ISP no longer puts me behind CGNAT, I just need to change my DNS settings and set up some port forwards on my router.

IPv6 doesn’t help anything if you’re behind CGNAT, you can have internal-only IPv6. There are good reasons to not have every household directly accessible to the outside world, so I’m sympathetic to that, but they also seem to love charging extra for it.

Most plants are dependent on cloud providers, it’s why drought is such an issue in deserts.

if using this in an area where cannabis growing is illegal, this is intended for growing oregano. Happy growing!

Sounds like some kind of caching issue on your device, as in it probably partially loaded something and got stuck trying to refresh stale data or something.

Most of these weird issues tend to disappear after clearing caches (e.g. deleting user data from your phone and logging in again). Rate limiting may have fixed it by giving an error code instead of giving the same success, which could have triggered a cache invalidation.

So if it happens again, that’s what I’d try. That’s my best guess without trying it myself.

Can confirm, it remembers passwords and doesn’t tell them to bad guys and gals.

Yup, CGNAT blows.

Maybe?

It’s spelled, “well acktschually,” and yes, I am free for an autograph m’lady.

Idk, 20 min isn’t exactly quick in my book, sounds like he had some trouble getting it up.

It’s also really annoying if you only have one.

The AP works really well, so I put up with it.

It literally is…
