I used pihole for years, but the recent updates made me look for alternatives. There was a major (v6?) update fuckup, but also some random freezes and block lists going missing…
Looking for alternatives, I tried out Technitium. Extremely easy to set up, rock solid, running steady for about 6 months (with frequent updates), and they recently introduced built in high-availability.
I have ~/work/code/project-name-1, ~/work/code/project-name-2 or ~/priv/code/project-name-3, but not by language… I only separate work and private repositories.
I mean, I wouldn’t call tcpdump a “hacking tool”…
I have a similar setup, with a public domain hosted by cloudflare. Internally, I use caddy with the DNS feature pointing to the cloudflare using their API and letsencrypt certs.
Something like this: https://webenclave.com/2024/11/07/setting-up-a-secure-local-network-with-caddy-cloudflare-dns-and-lets-encrypt/
I can also share more details, maybe my compose files and caddy setup if you need them.
That’s true. I still do, for my entire *arr stack, but you don’t need to, except for the torrent client.
I’m using Gluetun to connect to my VPN, and only *arr services and qbit use it. Here’s a good example: https://github.com/automation-avenue/arr-gluetun/blob/main/docker-compose.yml
Yeah, I still use the latest readarr builds with both ebooks and audiobook, and with rreading-glasses they still work. I am also in the chaptarr discord and got access to the alpha build, which looks really promising. Still rough around the edges, though.
On the phone app you go to Library -> People -> “Add a name” at the top.
This is what I do. Shared folder via NFS, mounted inside the VM (fstab), added to the volumes of the docker container in the compose file…
Client availability is valid. I use an android tv, that’s been easy for me. There are mobile clients for every phone and tablet.
I’ve never used Plex. What are some of the features that you’re missing in Jellyfin? Genuinely curious.

It’s really popular in the server world, and it’s the foundation of many other distros, maybe that’s why?
Some more info, like some error messages or logs would help people help you.
Also, stick with one distro while troubleshooting, and start by giving us the distro used, kernel, nvidia drivers, steam, wine and proton versions / variants, other packages used…
When you switched distro, did you do a full clean install for everything, including steam?
No Bias, No Bull AI I’ve spent my career grappling with bias. As an executive at Meta overseeing news and fact-checking, I saw how algorithms and AI systems shape what billions of people see and believe. As a journalist at CNN, I even hosted a show briefly called “No Bias, No Bull”(easier said than done, as it turned out). Trump’s executive order on “woke AI” has reignited debate around bias and AI. The implication was clear: AI systems aren’t just tools, they’re new media institutions, and the people behind them can shape public opinion as much as any newsroom ever did. But for me, the real concern isn’t whether AI skews left or right, it’s seeing my teenagers use AI for everything from homework to news without ever questioning where the information comes from. Political bias misses the deeper issue: transparency. We rarely see which sources shaped an answer, and when links do appear, most people ignore them. An AI answer about the economy, healthcare, or politics, sounds authoritative. Even when sources are provided, they’re often just footnotes while the AI presents itself as the expert. Users trust the AI’s synthesis without engaging sources, whether the material came from a peer-reviewed study or a Reddit thread. And the stakes are rising. News-focused interactions with ChatGPT surged 212% between January 2024 and May 2025, while 69% of news searches now end without clicking to the original claiming neutrality while harboring clear bias. We’re making the same mistake with AI, accepting its conclusions without understanding their origins or how sources shaped the final answer. The solution isn’t eliminating bias (impossible), but making it visible. Restoring trust requires acknowledging everyone has perspective, and pretending otherwise destroys credibility. AI offers a chance to rebuild trust through transparency, not by claiming neutrality, but by showing its work. What if AI didn’t just provide sources as afterthoughts, but made them central to every response, both what they say and how they differ: “A 2024 MIT study funded by the National Science Foundation…” or “How a Wall Street economist, a labor union researcher, and a Fed official each interpret the numbers…”. Even this basic sourcing adds essential context. Some models have made progress on attribution, but we need audit trails that show us where the words came from, and how they shaped the answer. When anyone can sound authoritative, radical transparency isn’t just ethical, it’s the principle that should guide how we build these tools. What would make you click on AI sources instead of just trusting the summary? Full transparency: I’m developing a project focused precisely on this challenge– building transparency and attribution into AI-generated content. Love your thoughts.

That looks really unmaintained, the last update was yeas ago. I wouldn’t just run random shell scripts from the Internet without understanding what they do first.
Here’s a pretty decent Wiki to get you started with the *arr ecosystem: https://wiki.servarr.com/
My “servers” are headless, in the basement, so even if I’m home, it’s still remote :D
If you open a terminal,
cd <location>and runls -la, what do you get? Who’s the owner and what are the permissions of the subdirectories?Are there any errors in the Jellyfin interface? Have you checked the logs?
777 permissions are a bit overkill, I think 755 should be enough, since you don’t need to “execute” mkv files.
