    I second the complaint about subpaths. I have all my services on a single domain, except for HA. It’s for security by obscurity, when you issue a certificate for a subdomain you start getting malicious traffic probing for vulnerabilities almost immediately. I don’t have this problems for services with non-obvious subpaths.

    I can’t understand the stubbornness of developers to accept patches for fixing this problem.



  • You did not say what kind of streaming services.

    For anything self-hosted or torrents/debrid, just get a Raspberry Pi with LibreELEC.

    If you use Netflix and the likes, you will likely want something officially supported. My partner likes Netflix for some reason and after years of using the unofficial addon by CastaginaIT, I gave up and got her a Firestick this winter (having set up a separate VLAN for it and ripped out the microphone, of course).

    The unofficial Kodi addon is an amazing piece of reverse engineering work, but it’s not really great that you have to log in using your computer every month or two, and occasionally download a 2GB binary, before you can watch a movie on Netflix half-asleep.
