I've set up a local mail archive with just dovecot + imap plugin. you don't need the full mail server with postfix and whatnot, as it's not intended to send anything anywhere, or even receive anything for that matter. it just sits there ready to be searched with thunderbird, no need for other complex solutions you've mentioned.

found the culprit: I've connected my jellyfin-media-player apps to a CNAME alias provided by my Pi-hole (jellyfin.box) and a matching nginx proxy entry:
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name jellyfin.box;
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8096/;
}
so when I disconnected the app from the jellyfin.box server and connected it to the "new" server at server.box:8096 it started working immediately. looks like I'm missing some headers in that proxy so I'll look into it.
edit: yepp, adding headers fixed it, I can connect to the jellyfin.box server and have it detected by all other devices on the network.
location / {
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8096/;
}
glad it's working for you but no dice here. installed it fresh on a laptop, same deal, doesn't detect either of them.
both installs are flatpaks, how about yours?
this right here. remove partition and apply and then start the installer. there is a way to map this partition in the installer, but that's such a horrific UX mess that it's a challenge even for experienced folks.
first off, I have serious doubts that any one dude - or even a group of those for that matter - can ascertain the security of such a complex system; a browser is essentially an operating system, with all the layers and complexities that entails.
even if you're somewhat successful in such an endeavor, I don't really care if it potentially is. chromium comes from those shitmakers and I'm not willingly using anything they had their nasty fingers in. they threw one shovel of shit too many on the heap and they are now forever on my ignore list. if that means that I don't get to access certain domains, sites, and/or apps - so be it, I'll make do without.
I can't speak to the doom scenarios (death trap and whathaveyous) but I can share my experience. I was faced with buying what's considered a new "decent" bike for close to $1K and went the other way - I bought a used one for $80 in sorta OK shape; no idea who made the frame but the majority of its components are of chinese origin.
the rationale was a) to see if I even want the thing - what if I ride it a couple of times and then decide it's too much bother, and b) I should learn how to maintain it and fix the usual stuff.
three years later, I've replaced close to all of the key components by myself - wheels, crank shaft, pedals, front and rear derailleurs, brakes, calipers, cables, chains, tyres, etc. I had no experience fixing anything and got all my education from youtube. some of the gear failed and was replaced, other was upgraded preventively, mostly with shimano's value line. I'm not blaming the original components for failing, there's ample wear and tear the way I ride it and I also happen to be kinda oversized for this bike, shoulda gotten an XXL frame.
my advice is, ride the bike as is and replace components as they fail, you'll learn how to fix stuff in the process and the replacements are super cheap. only then, when you're a seasoned rider start looking into better alternatives.
fucking edgelords... IA has trouble staying on its feet without this sorta crap.
this has "kicking puppies for palestine" energy - not sure where I've read this but it's an apt analogy.
you can still run both tools, I do so on my main workstation. they stay in the status bar and don't bother you none. when you're done working and recline on your sofa, you can send e.g. youtube videos to the rig and they play fullscreen by way of mpv.
I've gone the other way - there is no interacting per se with the media PC; instead, it's a dumb sink that plays back everything you send it, by way of macast and jellyfin-mpv-shim. you use android apps to send it stuff (e.g. newpipe share to allshare which connects to macast and jellyfin android app which connects to JMS) and to control playback (pause, skip, change subs, etc.). so, all media selection and playback control is done from the mobile device, no need to touch the media PC doing the playback.
not sure this will fit into your use case because of spotty internet, but that should prompt you to install jellyfin post-haste. then you have two options, the mentioned android app + JMS or just the jellyfin media player which can run in TV mode with a pared down controller (up/down/left/right/enter/back) - I've successfully repurposed an ancient Apple Remote that has just those six keys.
can you run it on multiple devices and have them all synced? how about chat export in a readable format?
hey E., tell Sloane I said "What up"
why not
btrfs send | btrfs receive
? is there some advantage to rsync?did you hotswap the drives after each
btrfs replace
or shutdown and then swap?what's your host OS and do the drives spin down if inactive?
thanks for the writeup!
