Congratulations, you’ve described a common human behavior that humans have been doing for all of human history. 😐

All this nonsense about this or that generation doing something incomprehensible to other generations is just distraction and noise meant to keep us attacking each other instead of coming together against the oligarchy that’s been systematically grinding us down for ever increasing profits.

I’ll review the docs and give this a shot either this evening or tomorrow. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction!

Thanks for your help! It’s very much appreciated. I was thinking I might want to use this VPS for an occasional OwnCast stream and as a SyncThing target, so it sounds like I’ll need a reverse proxy. Any recommendations on something relatively easy to use? I’ve seen people mention ngnix, traefik, caddy and a few others, but I’m not sure which would integrate nicely with ESS. Also, I appreciate the heads up about the helm commands. Definitely important info to have!

I guess I’ll have to make a Matrix account elsewhere to join the support room so I can make a Matrix server of my own. 😅 Thanks for the link! Hopefully they’ll be able to help me figure out the issue.

That tracks. I’ve never actually uwu-ed before, so I didn’t know how hard to go. 😂

Sorry for the delayed response, things have been wildly busy for me.

I did configure my domains as instructed, and they do resolve to the expected IP address. I don’t have an already existing reverse proxy, so I was just following along with what the guide was telling me to do. That said, this may be the issue, because I don’t recall seeing any specific set up for the included reverse proxy and I’ve been through that guide 3 times. I haven’t configured port forwarding on my router since I’m using a Hetzner VPS for this, but I did make sure to open up the required ports on the firewall.

I’ve been trying to get this running for days, but I’ve had no luck. I follow the install instructions and when I get to the last step of actually starting the service, it fails, seemingly because there’s some issue with the config file that I can’t figure out. I was hoping this would be a good alternative for ESS Community, which I had no luck with either.

What was your secret to get it working? I’ve been trying to get it running for 2 weeks following the official guide. I’m able to create an admin user via the CLI, but when I try to go to any of the subdomains I’ve created, I either get a 404 or the TLS handshake fails to complete. The people behind ESS are very clear that they do not offer any support and I haven’t been able to find an answer to this problem anywhere.

That is a very mean and hurtful thing for that video to say!

What a terrible day to know how to read.

I installed through F-Droid as well, but I didn’t get any notices. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Add me to the list with this exact issue.

They are an Amazon company, so it makes sense they’d be using AWS.

A fun game to play right now is to try to hit any of your regularly visited sites and see which ones are down. 😂

Seems like this is Mortal Engines: The Game, so I’m looking forward to checking this out.

Do you have a problem with local school taxes too? 🤡

Damn, dude! 😂

Before Cloud, obviously.

I suspect it probably would. Though I haven’t looked too deeply into it myself, I’ve heard of browser extensions you can get to force 1080p from Netflix, so maybe that’s what they’re doing.

With Netflix in a browser, you can bring up your streaming stats in the browser window as you’re watching something by pressing Ctrl + Shift+ Alt + D. It’ll give you several bits of information as an overlay, including what resolution the video is playing at. Next time you stream from them, give it a shot and see if you get anything above 720p. I know I never have and if you search online, you’ll find others with the same experience. In fact, I think Netflix might actually have this on a FAQ page somewhere…

Found it! https://help.netflix.com/en/node/30081

Scroll down to the OS selection and you can see what resolutions are supported by which browsers on Linux. Turns out Opera will give you 1080p for some reason, but the rest are capped at 720p.
