Based on not knowing what your system looks like (OS, DE, how you’re moving files, where you’re moving them, etc), the first place I’d try is getting Flat Seal from the flatpak app store. It’s a permissions manager for flatpaks that might help you out. If you’re trying to move files into a folder that has escalated permissions, it may give you some problems. Try fiddling with the settings in Flat Seal.

I don’t really use flatpaks, so I couldn’t tell you exactly the setting to look at, sorry. Never had an issue with drag/drop myself.

I use it between PCs (binary, flatpak) and NAS (Docker), but i believe the android fork is still potentially compromised. Haven’t updated the android version since the repo was taken over.

I agree with your post 100% I think. Removing oneself from big tech/data services like Google and Microsoft is resisting the regime. It’s especially useful for folks that may not be able to get out and protest, meet with their representatives, etc.

As for me, I’m running my *arr/media stack for myself and my close friends and family. Fuck Disney, Netflix, and Paramount. For our household, HomeAssistant keeps the lights on and SyncThing backs up our files to the NAS.

I guess I’d describe myself as agnostic, but I find them to be annoying, generally. This includes my grandmother who must bring up God in every conversation. Weather? God. Politics? God. What people are up to? God. Her particular flavor of “Christianity” involves judging others, so the shit she spews isn’t taken very seriously in our house. If I were in your friend’s shoes, I’d probably just distance myself from this friend of his, since she doesn’t really seem to respect him.

I like to discuss religion and people’s particular beliefs, mostly because it’s fascinating how different groups and cultures have decided how to get through life with ultimately the same conclusion. But it’s hard to do that when someone’s view of the subject is voluntarily one-sided. I think it’s ignorant to claim your religion as the way to believe, and the only way to get to some so-called heaven or afterlife.

Mint. It’s so easy my mother in law can use it! Very easy to maintain, virtually no terminal use if you dont want to. Cinnamon (Mint’s desktop environment) is fairly customizable too iirc.

I could very easily, I’ve just only use rsync a handful of times for one-off files or small directories. Thinking of using it for several Tbs scares me 😅

Would you recommend nnn for transfering ~5Tb of media between two local servers? Seems like a weird question but it’s something I’ll have to do soon.

I figured it out!!

It was simple. I just told Plex to allow the 172.18.0.0/24 subnet. It’s always something simple huh.

Thanks for pointing me at the logs. Sometimes it all looks like gibberish when you’re learning, then you stop and read and search. Have a wonderful evening! (and the 10000 years of excellent luck, too!)

The only logs from Pangolin are from me accessing https://overseerr.dom.tld/. From Plex’s GUI console though, I get this:

Request: [172.18.0.2:46974 (WAN)] GET / (6 live) #18eb GZIP Signed-in
Completed: [172.18.0.2:46974] 401 GET / (6 live) #18eb GZIP 0ms 464 bytes (pipelined: 1)

That 172.18.0.2 is the IP of the Newt container (that subnet is its bridge network, anyway). So it’s making some request to Plex and receiving a 401?

From Mozilla:

The HTTP 401 Unauthorized client error response status code indicates that a request was not successful because it lacks valid authentication credentials for the requested resource.

So what would cause Plex to throw a 401?

Looks like a good resource to read, thanks! As you may know there are a billion and one guides for doing the same thing across a plethora of systems, and even more variables in between. Appreciate your time.

The few times I do use curl, all I can think of is this sketch. Glad there are some TR fans here too 😁

Synology has walked back their HDD decision (for now…), but as a DS224+ owner I actually just bought a new system, because I find the Synology software ecosystem to be kind of clunky and limiting.

I think for many people, whether they’re tinkerers or programmers or whoever, enjoy the freedom that comes with Arch.

Apps is short for Applications, which is another word for “programs” or “software.” You want to use a PC without any software??

I don’t mean to add to the discourse here or to keep giving you hypotheticals but, while learning to self host is fun and cool, you really do not want this thing on public Internet. Even if you can delete files to prevent uncouth things, what if someone uploads something while you’re asleep, or away from your computer? Do you have others monitoring the instance to take down CSAM or other illegal material? What if someone uploads malware and it executes on your machine? If you must leave it exposed, you should allow only family and friends to access via a strongly passworded account(I think that is configurable with copy party).

If you really want to expose services, try a media server like Plex or Jellyfin. You don’t want strangers to upload things to your machines.

I’m not a developer but I see this being immensely useful for a lot of people. Good luck to you! :)

+1 to Fossify Gallery. I used Aves for a bit and it was fine, but Fossify is cleaner and faster from my experience with it.
