  • Yes. Jellyfin is mostly awesome, now. I would recommend it to everyone.

    Plex has been around a long, long time and the experience from backend to the front is still for the most part unmatched. It was really nice to have proper full featured clients on all devices. Built in skipping intros and ability to download content for offline use was really nice and would be very useful for me at this time.

    I have a lifetime pass from the very beginning and was spare change compared to what they charge now. A common misconception is they took away the ability to log in locally on the lan without phoning home. You can still do that. But ultimately I decided to move on.





  • I have to admit, I’m a bit confused.

    I have dns records already in my domain provider pointing to a tailscale ip

    I want to know what I have to do to get minecraft.example.com to resolve interenally.

    Since your domain resolves to an internal private Tailscale IP and your question is how to access using the domain, locally…. I feel like there’s an error in your architecture here. Wouldn’t any device that is on your Tailscale private network already have access using the domain name? If by “resolve internally” you mean hosts on your LAN, not connected to Tailscale scale? How would that be possible if it resolves to a Tailscale IP. If you have control of your DNS on your LAN, you could simply add an override and point it to the LAN address of the Minecraft server.






  • Discord has forums built in. I know everyone hates it when I mention it, but there is continuity on Discord and has been for several years now.

    That’s because it’s not exactly a great point. Look, we’re all glad they caught up to 1980’s bbs tech, but it’s behind a login screen. YOU HAVE TO GIVE YOUR PHONE NUMBER TO ACCESS IT.

    Discord had always been a square peg beaten with a hammer to fit in a round hole. Eventually gaining basic features for the things it was never meant to be used for. Forcing people to sell themselves out just to read some documentation on an open source project.



  • It seems that the commenter’s intention was clear to everyone except you. The commenter acknowledged the need for RAID software or a specific file system, mentioning that it had already been addressed. Understood the budget and OP being an newb.

    Although their tone may have been blunt, they stayed focused on their original point.

    But you just kept nagging. lol

    Either way OP was helped and now you can sleep knowing you did your part. A true internet hero.





  • Your network is probably configured with inconsistent subnets / netmasks. iOS / Android are on WiFi and getting a different subnet/netmask than your severs.

    Edit: What does pinging the server with nmap mean? Are you checking open ports or pinging the server? That doesn’t make sense or at least leaves us with more questions with the way you worded that. Although the nmap utility can provide both of those answers, I’m not sure that’s what you meant. Technically nmap and ping are two different tools.
