An alternative to torrenting though is Usenet. It takes a bit of setting up but there are some nice advantages. No worrying about needing to seed back and you're not going to need to worry about a VPN or your ISP forwarding on threatening letters. Sure it costs money, but I think I pay about £45 per year and I don't regret that one little bit.

I'm sorry, but anyone who thinks it's acceptable to tell people to "fuck off to France" when they voice their displeasure at being loaded into a floating barge containing Legionella can go and do one as far as I'm concerned.
If you can't show any kind of empathy for fellow humans who are potentially fleeing for their lives then you are not deserving of any respect.
I started looking at co-working space a few months ago and I took a package where I could get 50 hours a month in it for £100+VAT. When I was in there there were usually a handful of people working away and although I didn't end up really striking up a conversation with anyone just having other people around was good for me as it meant that the only voices I heard whilst working weren't just the ones on our video conferencing software or in my head.
I have stopped using it now though because of a temporary change to my working hours meaning that I can't take use my 50 hours in a month (not even half of them in the lastlnth I was doing it) but once that ends I'll be kicking off that subscription again. If you want to know more about the company I used let me know as I believe they have offices throughout the country.
I personally use gitea but there is also a community version of gitlab that has way more power than I need.
Gitea can import a repo from GitHub but I don't know whether it can also push updates out as one never tried to do that.
I picked gitea as I didn't need all of the extra power of gitlab and they were the first two options I found. I don't deploy it using portainer but all of my stacks are set up as git repos in portainer and using the webhook feature it'll auto pull and redeploy whenever I push to it
Just took a look at my profile, registered on 27 June 2006. So it's in my 15-20 year window that I mentioned
Now that's not something I'd have expected. I've never encountered anything like that in the nearly 15-20 years I've been using TL.
Thanks for that, I'll give it a tweak and a bash as I don't use traefik, but that's a great starting point that gets me a chunk of the way there
No worries on that front, VPN is already set up and was established several years ago to do this and these days none of this infrastructure runs on a pi. But yes, that would be needed had I not already done so.
Magic, thanks for that I'll give it a look.
Bookmarked for investigation when I finish my current batch of tasks (and 3 reminders set so when I forget I'm reminded)
I think I tried thisin my earliest Cura days and it didn't work but I'll give it another go and see how I go as that'll at least get me round most of the problem and I've got backup plans for I'd I can't get a self hosted web app going. (VM with rdp so I can still run Cura on it)
It depends on how long your work day is as to whether or not you've got that 2 hours spare I guess.
I was using http://www.wizuworkspace.com/ and one thing I haven't mentioned was that they also offered a pay as you go thing where you pay £20+VAT per day.
