I’m struggling to think of another government that is more hostile to Americans than the US government.

Just because my government has a list of enemies, doesn’t mean they’re my enemies too.

Returns? My wife does the same as your coworker, but anything she doesn’t like they refund her and tell her to keep. We call it Freemu.

Any problems I’ve had with these apps has usually been solved by reconnecting my VPN.

NewPipe or PipePipe.

I hadn’t looked at FOSS image album software in awhile, but I recently installed Immich on my home Yunohost server. I am very happy with it so far. It is miles better than Nextcloud photos, and I’m honestly blown away by how well the facial recognition works. I’m also enjoying the “x years ago today” highlighting feature, after seeing proprietary platforms have that for so long.

My homie went to a charter school in the 90s and actually did making a working moonshine still for a science project.

I know about that setting, but this was different. It relies on Linux permissions. Like you have a dedicated ‘user’ for running qBit, and that user has no privileges for any network interface other than the VPN.

I had someone help me set something similar up but I don’t remember the exact details. Something like making the qBit user unable to use any interface but the TUN.

Yunohost.

Hey, they also needed more people to play cricket with.

I know a lot of people interested in infosec, but none of them want to be cops/feds.

I’m sorry you have to deal with that. I have lived with a persistent background anxiety for my whole life, and only in the last year have I started treating it (in my 40’s). It hasn’t solved all my problems, but it does mean I’m not constantly jittery. If you’re already treating your anxiety, then I can only wish you luck and success.

Do whatever you want. Maybe your marriage will last, maybe it won’t. Live your life. Take chances.

I did not see the iPad IP address in the fail2ban logs.

I am not seeing anything (relevant) in the Nextcloud logs (as viewed from the web app). In iOS I get a message about SSL verification failed, and do I want to try connecting without it. Either way it cannot validate credentials. I know the username and password are correct (tested multiple times/work to login in the browser), and the SSL cert is valid.

Also /var/log/Nextcloud/ is empty. Where else should I look for logs?

Somebody else mentioned it, but I want to second yunohost. That’s where I started years ago, and remain today. I run it on a box at home, and it has Nextcloud, Navidrome and a couple other things installed on it. About as easy as it gets.

For media server (Jellyfin, etc), I have tried several solutions and ended up with swizzin community edition. The hardest part was setting up the VPN to integrate with the torrent client, so I don’t get booted off the Hetzner host. Note that you could also set this up at home.

As you can see by the replies, lots of people want to help you, but very few want to set this stuff up for pay. If you really want to go that route, check out sites like fiverr or upwork.
