All corporations suck fucking donkey dick because consumers are morons.

Yep. There's no such thing as competition any more.

Tech companies are just gas stations across the street from each other.

I came here specifically to ask about alternatives to Android now that google is becoming too abusive in the relationship.

Thanks. I'm probably doing something wrong here.

When I try to connect while self-hosting, I get stuck at "Connecting to update server" when Runescape is loading in the client window.

In ~/.local/share/2009scape/config.json, I have:

{
  "ip_management": "[VPN INTERNAL IP]",
  "ip_address": "[VPN INTERNAL IP]",
  "world": 1,
  "server_port": [VPN FORWARDED PORT],
  "wl_port": 43595,
  "js5_port": 43595,
  "ui_scale": 1,
  "fps": 0
}

I've made sure the changes persist by either setting the file to read-only, or just avoiding changing the server setting at the game client launcher.

The only change I've made for the server was changing 2009scape-master/docker-compose.yml. I put the VPN port to the left side and left everything else the same.

version: '3.3'
services:
  app:
    build: .
    container_name: "2009scape_app"
    depends_on:
      - database
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - "2009scape_app:/app"
    ports:
      - "[VPN FORWARDED PORT]:43595"

Sorry if I come across as a novice. I'm still learning and any help is always appreciated.

It's very likely an issue on my end. I'm quite new to this and still trying to figure it out. I simply don't know much on how to identify these issues or what to change when they come up.

It's Lemmy running BE: 0.19.12

Thanks. It could be nothing, but I'm also thinking it might be an issue on my end from improperly changing configurations while trying to get self hosting to work.

I just don't know enough so I'm going to keep fiddling with it. I'll keep your advice in mind and not focus too much on the warning while figuring this out.

I'm having a lot of issues, but I don't really know what I'm doing either.

Right now, when I try to run it on my machine, I get this error saying that I can't connect to google then asking if I'm offline. I haven't had this error before when I tried getting it to work, but it's where I am now.

Ultimately, I'd like to reach a point where I can host it on my own machine with a VPN and port forwarding so other people can connect from the outside.
