Yeah I switch to MPV maybe a decade ago from VLC. I just like the outward simplicity. It can do everything but it doesn bother showing you unless you ask, whereas VLC is like an all you can eat buffet, kind of overwhelming for day to day use.
I still use VLC occasionally when I want to do something funky and don’t want to bother digging into how to do it with MPV for a one off.
Again, this thread replying to the original comment is talking about homelabs.
But also, again, this is addressed in the second half of my comment.
Yes, I’ve addressed this in my original message.
Get yourself a 3$/month VPS, they almost all come with DDoS protection, and reverse proxy from there. Either restrict the ports on your home network to only that IP, or better yet tunnel all the traffic via Wireguard.
Obviously if you’re hosting a large server this is another matter, but nevertheless almost all serious hosting services offer in house DDoS protection.
But the comment I was originally replying to specifically refered to homelabs.
Don’t expose the website. That’s the point. Only connect remotely via wireguard.
If you must expose the website, I also provided options in my original post.
Just put it behind a wireguard server and don’t expose any ports?
If you absolutely must expose some stuff, get a cheap 3$/mo vps that connects via wireguard to your home and setup a reverse proxy? They almost all come with DDoS protection.
People can curate the experience they want on their community as well. Same thing really. They don’t have to content with low quality post that calls them in question with no substance over and over again.
So you block everything you don’t like, but you complain that people block you when they don’t like what you have to say? You do see the irony here right?
They are. Look at the meme, Linux phones get the tux.
