That was basically the same claim LP made. Even if true, if you have a bad master password, you can be compromised. While yes, that’s on you, your data is a high priority target in a centralized password store… if you host it yourself, someone would first have to know you had that data to even target you for that. Much less exposure hosting it yourself. The convenience factor and potentially less security than a company hosting passwords have, so it’s kind of a six of one, half dozen of the other.

Raspberry Pi will handle it.

It’s all about the storage space. Processing requirements are minimal.

I switched from Lastpass to 1Pass and it was pretty miserable. I then swtiched to Bitwarden. It’s not perfect, but it’s better than LP and 1Pass.

The reason you’d want to self-host is so that nobody has access to your data but you. “The cloud” is just someone elses computer"

Nobody can answer this because it depends entirely on how you set it up. It can be set up either way. Whatever you point your internal endpoint at is what it is.

Wat

I don’t remember now. It’s been about a year since I did it. I got tired of tracks mysteriously disappearing out of my library or certain versions of a song not being available (licensing issues I assume) … so now the RIAA gets none of my money instead of some of my money, because they want to be greedy.

I would imagine any of the paid services would work for the most part but I can’t say for sure, I’m sorry. The one i used just downloaded everything at once (about 1500 tracks worth I think)

I was in the same boat as you. I searched for months but there is nothing out there that works consistently.

I ended up paying for a service that let me download my entire Spotify library and then cancelled the subscription. I then cancelled Spotify and now get so my music through Lidarr and play it through Plexamp. I’m really happy with this setup for the most part, however…

Be aware that Lidarr only downloads full albums, not individual songs, so that’s a drawback.

Also, it’s best to have private trackers (usenet AND torrent) to get the best experience out of Lidarr. I had to spend about a month getting invites to several exclusive Torrent and Usenet sites but once I did Lidarr finds most things. I have to get some obscure things by hand still, though, as they aren’t in Lidarr.

100% Roku. Best Plex interface.

Android Plex interface sucks, and don’t even get started on the abortion that the IOS Plex interface is.

This is the way

Help me out? I don’t need help. I was using BitTorrent before you knew what it was lol. It’s just not as good a system as Usenet. If you like it, great keep using it, but don’t pretend that it’s somehow superior when it is objectively not for the purposes of piracy .

You are the one trying to talk authoritatively about Usenet when you clearly don’t understand it. If you take my responses as “aggro” you might want to do some self reflection.

No one said anything about privacy, so I’m not sure where you are getting that from.

“Donation” please. Be real. Everyone knows that’s a pay to access scheme they are just calling donation. Don’t be obtuse. Do you get extra access for “donating?” Then you are paying, no matter what you want to call it.

free indexers seem like easy honeypots

Honey pots for what? Yeah few indexers on torrents definitely are. There would be no point in having one for Usenet. Downloading an NZB file is just telling you where to get the files in which newsgroups. Then you can access any news service of your choice to get it. You clearly don’t understand how Usenet works. You pick and choose who you want to connect with. Not so with P2P. You get what you get. Sure, there are blocklists, but they are outdated the minute they are updated.

You are paying to use a tracker, which is a central server … So how are you accomplishing that goal? The only way you are getting stuff off P2P is by using a central server to tell you where or how to get it. Torrents are just a bunch of servers owned by someone else… How is that different? Because you are getting smaller chunks from several different servers instead of larger chunks from fewer servers? Seems like you are splitting hairs at that point.

Giving back what you take, that’s what paying money to the server is in lieu of.

Usenet…

No VPN required or threats from RIAA for starters

Always saturates your bandwidth/never slow

Things are available for years, no seeders required

Even the good indexers are free

No need to waste your time, bandwidth and/or space seeding

No need to worry about ratios

The list goes on

Torrents:

Better use a VPN or get dropped by your ISP

No seeders? 1 seeder? Come back tomorrow and you might have your file. Oh sorry, that seeder went offline

Want to find stuff? Better pay for a good indexer…

Oh, while you are paying for the privilege of a good indexer, you better keep your ratio up or they will ban you. You get to pay to supply them with storage and bandwidth. Yay

Usenet has always been current Gen and superior to torrents for a number of reasons. Torrenting is ass for so many reasons.

As far as I know, proton doesn’t allow port forwarding, so makes using it for torrenting suboptimal. If you want to use torrents with a VPN, there’s better options

How, though? Just like chewing out a customer support rep, the goal is to make it so either the employees constantly bring it up to their managers or they quit and the company can’t find workers because it’s so miserable.

Are the SWEs responsible for the decision? No. But if they find it too miserable to continue, they will quit and the people responsible will eventually have to respond.

That’s really the only way to direct your anger at a CEO… Through the pocketbook. It’s unfortunate that it’s through the front line, but that’s part of the job.

Do you want pirates? This is how you get pirates.

The cloudflare tunnel is the reverse proxy in this case. No particular need to run another. Are you using the docker cloudflared to set up the tunnel?

In my case, I use NGINX that connects to the cloudflare side and parse everything out from there, and I haven’t used the cloudflared docker, but I imagine that makes things easier. I set everything up before Cloudflare tunnels were a thing, so I didn’t really want to rejigger everything. If were doing it from scratch, I’d probably go with Cloudflare.

Inb4 the Cloudflare is Bad and is a MITM attack people. Yes, it is, but it’s about opportunity cost. I’m not doing anything I care that Cloudflare sees, so I’m fine using it for simplicity sake, and I imagine they do a better job of security than I do, and I can manage stuff on a well configured dashboard instead of a command line. I’m more interested in blocking people who AREN’T cloudflare from screwing with my shit than I am in keeping Cloudflare out of my business. I use a VPN for things I don’t want to run through Cloudflare (like Torrents).

You need to right click and point it to the proper directory where the files are located.

RMB -> Set Location

Start the torrent. It should say Checking Files, count up to 100%, and then start seeding.
