My advise it to not bother. As soon as you need device specific firewall rules the whole thing falls apart. The evangelicals dont like this fact and will down vote me for saying it.

No one needs IPv6 in their home on their devices.

“IPv4 is running out of IP addresses so therefore every local network needs to move to IPv6” is a full clown move.

All that happens at boot is that linux.exe calls systemd.exe, uses all your system resources making your machine unusable bloat.

It’s almost as if people think systemd is one massive executable rather than a suite of tools

Have always preferred Emby. Have been running it for around 8 years.

How many internet connected devices do you think there are in a typical 2 adult 2 kid household, excluding phones? Here are TVs, tablets, Chromebooks, laptops, game consoles etc etc. Kids don’t jus have phones - mine don’t and there’s still a raw internet connection to almost all these devices.

And out of all of that only one has good controls for parents and believe me when I say this, setting it up was torture.

If you want to block YouTube to specific devices and not others its a really difficult thing to do. Especially when Big Tech is working against you - block the YouTube URLs on a Pihole and you’ll find that the play store also doesn’t work. There are plenty of dark patterns in all these things. Because these companies do not want to help by blocking access to the marketing bucks of kids.

There is no simple solution to all of it unless you either live in the past or you parent so 1984ly that it’ll exhaust you and alienate your kids from you.

Your notion of the modern world is terribly quaint

As a very tech savvy parent I have to say that setting up an inhibited, monitored and controlled internet for specific devices and users is insanely difficult. The average person stands no chance. But sure, blame the parents instead of the technology as it is sold and delivered.

Wow, I would never considering allocating so much memory to a single service I run at home.

Gitlab

This guy has a lot of memory in his server

I have Podgrab setup, but I mostly just use PodcastAddict on my phone

Install it once, use it on any of your devices. Run it once on a capable server so even potatoes get the advantage of it. Run it once so it only needs to support one OS and hardware architecture.

Using an app of some description over many different device types is far more of a maintenance headache and that’s before you start dealing with app stores.

4?! There are literally dozens of us!

The main one is how it handles corruption. It has actively been designed to do the exact opposite of what a sane filesystem should do and maximises downtime.

What’s your stereo you’re connecting the record player to?

I still maintain that Emby is better than Jellyfin. I try it again maybe once a year and every time I end up back on Emby. It just runs better, works pretty flawlessly and doesn’t lose my libraries every so often. Music playback is better by far on Emby and that’s my main usecase.

Hardware decoding would be nice, but I don’t have a system I could use this on for either and I’ve not had trouble without it.

I really only used it for syncing photos from my phone so I went to Syncthing. The NC web interface I found far too slow to be any use, so I just mount network shares over NFS.

And that is why I no longer run Nextcloud
