Yeah both Nginx and plex handle making themselves public for me already. But I have a handful of other svcs that id like to move behind a reverse proxy too

Yeah port forwarding just isnt the same. I pretty heavily rely on Nextcloud and Plex doing the port forwarding for me

Yeah I’ve given some recommendations but it’s really good to just start small and pick up new stuff as you go, then you can identify your needs and do a big upgrade.

Prowlarr, Sonarr, Radarr.

These services let you find, download, and manage tv shows/movies from multiple trackers. You can even start tracking a tv show that’s still running and it’ll download new seasons as and when they’re released. From there they’re forwarded to your torrent client.

It’s awesome, lets my non-technical GF add movies and tv shows without me, and means we’re up to date on severance!

I’d personally recommend a second hard drive of 500GB at least. You’ll quickly fill that 250gb drive, and it’s good practice to keep your data and applications separate (if the drive fails or gets upgraded your services won’t need to go down!). You can also set up a ZFS pool so you can add drives later into a big pool that’s treated like a single drive by your applications, though most of those services can support multiple storage locations so ZFS isnt too urgent if you expand to a new drive.

I can personally attest that the SU630 is a good SSD though. Serves my raspberry pi well! You don’t need SSDs for your bulk storage though, you won’t need the speed.

Dietpi has an automatic letsencrypt recert service which could probably be ported since its just a whiptail script

ngl the newest truenas version is incomprehensible to me. Makes most of the videos on it obsolete, and the docs aren’t much better, all while trying to abstract docker compose in a way that makes it shit itself when you try to use anything not specifically developed to work with TNS’s storage layout.

It’ll probably improve with time but I clearly picked the worst time to pick it up.

I’ve decided either to return to https://dietpi.com/ or try prox mox and pray it’s more stable.

Maybe for hosting a blog or something but I wouldn’t self host anything more important than that. Even then, Github pages support custom domains on their free tier so you don’t even need to do the hosting in that scenario

Lots of frameworks for applications and games have automatic translation of file paths to sensible directories, but when you’re writing software you’re probably doing shit fast and dirty until it’s ready for release, by that time you now have a bunch of people relying on your software so changing the file structure will cause loads of issues.
