What I don’t understand is how an IP address used as an identity? If you have CG-NAT there’s a good chance you share your IP with 5-6 other people (even more possibly). Alternatively you can say I keep my WiFi open for guests so anyone can walk by my house and torrent on my IP (idk NL law but maybe the court will consider this negligence)
I like to use rutracker.org. The tracker is public but the search is behind a registration form. Based on my experience it has some content I was unable to find on English trackers. Additionally, InsaneZemRes (a no compression repacker, good if internet speed/bandwidth aren’t of a concern) uploads new releases to there instantly, so very comfortable if I’m looking for a game that came out recently.
In case I can’t find what I’m looking for on rutracker, torrentgalaxy.to is a good alternative. They have a lot of the RARBG torrents and I think that’s where most ex-RARBG users migrated.

I’m gonna leave this here, go wild. Do note that most of big tech already bought their .sucks domains.
Basically once you have WG set up, you will have an additional interface with it’s own IP in “ifconfig”. At that point all the ports are available and you can just point your reverse proxy to them (sorry I’m an NGINX user, I have no idea how Traefik works).
Additionally don’t forget to add keep-alive in your WG config so that the service doesn’t shut off once traffic stops going between both servers.
Actually I did.
No you didn’t. You said that you had set up TrueNAS, that means it’s working. I inferred from a different comment that you’re actually experiencing problems with TrueNAS and even left a reply to hopefully help you.
Logs of…what, exactly?
It was an example. I did not expect you to take it literally. If things aren’t working, then we need to know which things aren’t working. Screenshots, logs, even “I can’t connect to my own server” is better.
I did
I had to infer from other comments that you’re having trouble with TrueNAS. Perhaps it’s because English is my 3rd language, but clearly the point didn’t get across to others in this thread either.
SSH - secure shell. It is a way to connect to your remote machine. On server distributions it is usually open by default. If you’re running Windows on your main computer, you can connect with either the included OpenSSH client (terrible experience) or download a utility like PuTTY. Detailed explanation here: https://bitlaunch.io/blog/how-to-connect-to-ssh-with-putty/
Web shell - Likely refers to the admin control panel of the software. I don’t run TrueNAS so I can only assume. Likely if you open a browser tab and type in your server’s IP and the specified port in the documentation you’ll be able to access it (i.e http://192.168.50.2:8080)
“go to system --> advanced” where!? - Likely in the admin panel. Again, don’t run the software personally.
Link aggregations - This is more on the advanced side and likely not necessary for you at this stage. The idea is to allow you to connect more interfaces and increase bandwidth, likely not necessary for a home set up, would advise you keep it for later.
VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network. In the past before VLANs we had switches/hubs that when you connected a cable to them they would automatically become a member of the same network. VLAN allows you to split one physical network into many virtual networks. This is good because you can them limit access inbetween VLANs or block traffic for your server VLANs (if for example, you don’t want it to collect telemetry and phone home. I personally do it on the IoT VLAN).
Default Gateway - It is the IP address of your router in most cases. If you are on the 192.168.10.0 - 192.168.10.255 network and you’re trying to send packets inside that network then your clients will not contact the default gateway, they will instead just reach each other directly. The default gateway is necessary to send packets outside of your network.
Don’t worry, the Microsoft support forums don’t lack self righteous answers either. I won’t talk about about desktop Linux because that has nothing to do with this thread and has a plethora of other issues as to why it won’t take off but specifically self hosting won’t take off because it never meant to. We will never get to a point in our lives where 100% (or hell, even 10%) of the population are proficient enough in how a computer works to self host their own software stack, and that is okay. If you self-host services make them available to your friends and family. Never thought that self-host was a movement of some sort where we’re trying to convert people who rely on centralized products into self hosting gurus, guess that’s a first for me.
I didn’t read the other comments, only the main post in which I do not see what you define as “detailed account of my situation”. You said that you have an issue with some software (you did not even bother to specify which) and that you want people to hop on Jitsi to duke it out with you. Had it been me, I would’ve posted logs, posted what I’m trying to achieve and why I’m unable to do it so far or where I would appreciate additional explanation. You want people to help you but you do not make it any easy for them to do.
But that’s okay, stay arrogant and we’ll see how far it gets you.
Not to be a dick, but to explain why forming the question the way you did will not get you any assistance or responses for that matter.
The truth is, not a single person here went to self-hosting school, we got to where we are because of our love for the craft. I hope this doesn’t discourage you from trying. The high you’ll get from finally solving that one error you’ve been trying to resolve for hours is one I love experiencing over and over again which is why I self-host.
Hi!
I don’t know which router equipment you’re using so I can’t advise further, however, In your DHCP server settings you need to set the DNS server to your AdGuard DNS and then release/renew your leases on your client devices. (This can be a command like ipconfig /release on your Win machines, or reconnecting your wifi on mobile devices).
In the software world, based on personal experience and the UNIX philosophy, software should aim to do one thing and do it really well.
Then there are also the bloat complaints (why should I download a whole stack of arr services when I only care for movies)
The most unfortunate one however can be them mixing. If my child looks up Star Wars but instead the suite ends up downloading a Star Wars porn parody… that’s just… bad
I don’t know where you’re from and therefore don’t know what laws affect you but unless the ISP is involved in the media game (i.e HBO & AT&T) they don’t care about restricting access. In fact, they’re against it in most scenarios because if a competitor that doesn’t restrict access to piracy related websites exists, that competitor is likely to siphon customers from ISPs who impose restrictions.
On top of that, most ISPs do the absolute bare minimum to restrict your access so that you can bypass it easily, the most common being the modification of DNS records which you can easily bypass by changing your resolver.
TL:DR blame your lawmakers not your isp
It is important to know that artists make close to nothing on Spotify. By pirating Spotify you hurt big tech (and even not really, it’s not like they have a finite amount of money) and not the artists. Sending an artist $5 on Ko-Fi to an artist you enjoy will absolve you of all your music piracy sins for the rest of your life.
By hosting services on your desktop, you are increasing your threat surface. Every additional software that you run increases your potential to catch malware. It also requires powering a beefy machine 24/7 to keep the service up, when in reality anything that isn’t a media server can run on 3rd gen Intel CPUs that have relatively low TDP.
For the license to be changed every team member needs to submit a written agreement that he agrees to the change, otherwise their contributions must be removed as they were written under a different license, the only exception is usually permissive licenses such as MIT/BSD 3 clause.
Usually, to rugpull FOSS contributors, companies who maintain FOSS software ask contributors to sign a CLA which waives their rights and lets the control their contributions. Immich isn’t doing any of that, and it will likely remain AGPL forever because changing the license will be a big hassle for them with the amount of contributors.
