It’s funny how conservatives the world over trot out the same tired conspiracy theories. The conservative parties in Australia have regularly tried out the ‘African gangs’ idea without much success.

This sort of setup is a bit more advanced since it requires static routes on the remote router at least. Doable with one or two networks, but not if you have a bunch of users.

Most ISPs that do use CGNAT also offer ipv6 in Australia at least. The problem is that there is always that one client network that only supports ipv4 so you end up needing to support dual stack one way or another. Most of these ISPs also support CGNAT opt out for free at least, but I suspect that will go away in the medium term (and maybe that will encourage more universal ipv6 rollout).

It’s probably a TOS violation but you can combine it with pinchflat to strip ads and sponsored content from YouTube. It’s not a general YouTube app though, rather you use it to preserve channels you’re interested in.

You can also use Jellyfin to serve legally purchased music from bandcamp etc, or movies and TV shows ripped from Blurays and DVDs.

Many would be self-hosting behind a VPN so are less affected by public DNS issues.

I’ve used both Headscale and a while ago, Netbird. Some of this will be in comparison to raw Wireguard, which I’m also using.

I’m currently using Headscale, but it does have some annoyances. There were breaking changes fairly often for a while, although it looks to have mostly stabilised now. Tailscale itself is pretty invasive with its routing rules and DNS which can break things or cause unexpected behaviour, which doesn’t occur with raw Wireguard which is more predictable once you understand it. The Tailscale android client has been somewhat unreliable and clunky, although getting better, although third party Android clients for Wireguard, in turn, have also improved Wireguard usage dramatically. On the other hand, Headscale (or Netbird) are pretty much necessary if you are on a CG-NAT and need ipv4 access, and more usable if you want to build a mesh network.

I can’t remember if I tested the service Netbird or the self-hosted version (I think both) but the main thing I remember is that it had poor support for ipv6, which I consider mandatory. Otherwise, the Android client seemed solid and it felt well-designed overall. And maybe the ipv6 support is better now.

Prop 50 is going to pass comfortably so if anything this shows how little power these donors actually have. And I can see why individual donors don’t want to tie their name to a gerrymandering bill, even if it’s the right thing to do given the state of things.

yes but why would you?

Mainly because you’re required to use their distribution, or to build on Debian, which is not to everyone’s liking.

Of course that’s an argument against proxmox, and not virt-manager and the like.

Echoes of the Bowling Green Massacre. Lest we forget.

Primary goal: Navidrome as server combined with a VPN (tailscale is probably the easiest to setup but not technically self-hosted). Clients can be any that support the subsonic protocol. I personally use dsub2000 (android) + supersonic (Linux) but there are others. I’d start by testing it on your LAN to see if it’s workable.

Secondary goal: if you can get all 12 people to install Tailscale on all relevant devices then you can continue to use that. If not, you’ll need to host navidrome (or an alternative) publically preferably with a reverse proxy for better security. You could alternatively try Tailscale funnel or some cloudflare solution to host navidrome.

There’s also endurain but it doesn’t support gadget bridge integration yet (gadgetbridge needs to solve it on their end).

You sound like you want something more like navidrome which is closer to a private Spotify whereas Funkwhale is closer to a public social platform like Lemmy or Mastodon where you share music and follow others (or a little like a free bandcamp).

You still need to solve the public access problem either way, however, as others have talked about.

This is also one of those policies where, even if it is something that is not universally popular at first, becomes so once it is entrenched. In Australia there was an ongoing battle with it but once it was embedded in society, it became political suicide to roll it back (although the conservatives have chipped away at it with some success).

So the lesson is to just do the thing because it is obviously superior to the alternatives, and it will become popular quite quickly.

There’s always plenty of money in the banana pillow stand.

Some subsonic clients also support Jellyfin servers, so that could be a useful addition here (although I’m happy with Navidrome myself).

And there were multiple other trials pending that were only abandoned because he was elected.

There might be an “open in browser” option that can workaround issues like this.

And Brendan Carr.

WebDAV is probably the easiest for syncing the actual articles. I use some standalone server whose name I can’t recall but there’s a bunch of options.

I also use calibre-web for accessing articles through koreader + opds on a Kobo ereader, although this is a manual process and could probably be refined.

Seems like he’s currently receiving one.
