Thanks for the clarification. So I can surmise that length is everything then? Given that I use a password manager I'll just stick to my long gibberish passwords in that case, but it's good to keep passphrases in mind for use cases where I can't copy/paste easily.

Is that safe though? After seeing that XKCD I also thought it would be a good idea but then read that using passphrases is even worse because brute force attacks often use dictionaries as well to test word combinations, so one should use scrambled characters, just long enough to resist brute force.

Yeah my negative review of the Reddit app got removed for not being "truthful" when I (imo fairly) reviewed it as the dumpster fire it is.

Does it really matter though? "Well you see, they didn't actually see you naked, it was just a photorealistic approximation of what you would look like naked".

At that point I feel like the lines get very blurry, it's still going to be embarrassing as hell, and them not being "real" nudes is not a big comfort when having to confront the fact that there are people masturbating to your "fake" nudes without your consent.

I think in a few years this won't really be a problem because by then these things will be so widespread that no one will care, but right now the people being specifically targeted by this must not be feeling great.

Thanks for the answers. I guess that was not clear from my post, but I do not want to expose anything to the internet. All I want to do is tidy up the urls to the services for clarity. I have no issue with installing Tailscale on every device I want to access my services with. I can currently access any service just fine by doing "tailscaleIP:PortOfService", but that is kind of unpractical. So by using my domain and Cloudflare DNS I changed it to "mydomain.com:PortOfService" which is already better, but means I have to look up what port the service I need uses. Like I said in my post I'd ideally like "nameOfService.mydomain.com", no ports. And yes I realize this is purely for convenience/aesthetic reasons. Apologies if my words are not clear enough.

I mean... Of course everyone feels different, but I personally didn't mind the lockdown at all because of those exact reasons. Yes, I like being home, I like being alone, and while I also like going out and seeing friends from time to time, knowing that they also can't go out took the FOMO away that often motivates me to participate in social activities.

I honestly did not notice a big change in my lifestyle or emotional state during the lockdown, while some extrovert friends spiralled pretty hard.

But once again, those feelings are different for everyone. I just don't like generalising. My extroverted friends are also very respectful and give me space when I need it or ask for it, so acting like extroverts are just assholes with no regard for their friends makes me think some of you need better friends.

If you own a Samsung phone, I'd also recommend their Secure Folder, which is apparently pretty damn secure and isolated from the rest of the device.

I would disagree with the choice of words here, yes their stories are often not super deep or intricate, but I do believe they are extremely interesting, specifically because they are presented in such an appealing way.

Just the elevator pitch for Hades sounds amazingly interesting, "you are the son of Hades fighting his way through procedurally generated dungeons to escape hell", fuck yeah! Tell me more!

And the impact is definitely there as well, because while depth is missing, the qualities you described make what little story there is quite impactful.

Of course this is all just my opinion, but you can't tell me that "you participate in ritualistic basketball games to free your comrades from a prison wasteland" doesn't sound interesting.

Yeah, this is not the hill we should die on. Also, according to a post I saw recently, a true roguelike needs to fulfill a bunch of very specific requirements that already disqualify 99 percent of the games in the genre, so why even bother?

Games evolve, that's a good thing, let's not start gatekeeping genres too much.

Interesting, I am actually not using a reverse proxy, just Tailscale (or does that count as a reverse proxy?), I had previously been using nginx proxy manager but ditched that because it became too much of a hassle (and everyone says it's not secure enough)

I meant streaming shows with Jellyfin works fine, so I don't see why streaming music shouldn't work at least as well. I don't like using streaming clients such as Plex or Jellyfin for music, they just feel quite unpolished.

Depends, I get two problems, one where the song will abruptly stop playing at about the 1 quarter mark (only skipping the song or restarting will fix), and the other being the generally slow and unreliable streaming. The former happens everywhere, even in the webUI in my LAN, and the latter only when out and about (Tailscale into my network).
