I've been researching different ways to expose Docker containers to the internet. I have three services I want to expose: Jellyfin, Omnivore (Read-it-later app), and Overseerr.

I've come across lots of suggestions, like using Nginx with Cloudflared, but some people mention that streaming media goes against Cloudflared tunnel TOS, and instead recommend Tailscale, or Traefik, or setting up a WireGuard VPN, or using Nginx with a WireGuard VPN.

The amount of conflicting advice has left me confused. So, what would be the best approach to securely expose these containers?

Hey everyone, I'm building a new server to run Jellyfin (with a few other services like Pi-hole) and I'm stuck on GPU or CPU transcoding.

My main concern is smooth 4K HDR transcoding for 1 stream. I've been reading mixed advice online – some people say a strong CPU with good single-core performance can handle it, while others recommend a dedicated GPU.

Should I focus my budget (~$1000AUD/$658USD) on a good CPU, or spend some of it on a dedicated GPU?

So, I've been using FitNotes for a while as it's the only app that I found that doesn't have a nightmare privacy policy. However, the app is rarely updated and there are things I wish it had that I would love to add if it was FOSS. Wondering if there is anything foss alternatives?

Is there any self-hosted application that can monitor your watch history and provide movie/TV show recommendations?

Hello everyone, I've been working on setting up a torrent/media server on an old PC. Everything works near perfectly. However, I'm encountering an issue where qBittorrent gets stuck at 0% progress and just says 'Downloading Metadata'.

I've tried various solutions, including disabling the VPN, and even attempting to download it on my Windows 11 PC (both with and without a VPN). I've tried disabling my Windows 11 firewall and even tried Deluge. Unfortunately, none of these solutions have resolved the problem. I'm struggling to pinpoint the root cause. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I've tried a few different torrents that Prowlarr has fetched, but the one I've been trying without a VPN is the one from ipleak.net.

EDIT:

Was able to figure out a solution. Not sure why but switching from Wireguard to OpenVPN seems to have fixed the issue..

Hey there, I'm a newbie when it comes to self-hosting and working with Docker. I'm looking to route traffic from a couple of my Docker containers (specifically, qBittorrent and Prowlarr) through a Wireguard container that's hooked up to Mullvad. Any tips on how to set this up?

Here is my compose file:

version: "3.7"

services:
  prowlarr:
    container_name: prowlarr
    image: ghcr.io/hotio/prowlarr
    ports:

      - TZ=ETC/GMT
    volumes:
      - '/home/${USER}/server/configs/prowlarr:/config'

      - TZ=ETC/GMT
    volumes:
      - '/home/${USER}/server/configs/sonarr:/config'

    ports:

      - 6881:6881/udp
    restart: unless-stopped
