Really depends on the drive.
The one that died and my new SSD both have specified operating temps from 0°C to 70°C
Exceeding operating temps for longer periods of time will cause damage to the drive and often activates throttling.
I can route selected devices/groups/VLANs through the client. That's how I'm using it with my phone.
Phone connects to wireguard server. Wireguard server IP is in the router's VPN client list for outbound traffic.
Phone connects to the routers wireguard server and from there my phone is routed through the VPN client for web traffic (but I’m not using OpenWRT so you have to check if this is possible for you)
Laptop with wireguard app and VPN installed as browser extension:
WireGuard app is configured to only route traffic to my local subnets through the wireguard VPN.
Web browser is encrypted through the VPN extension.
Really depends on what you need. For me this setup fits my bill.
But there’s also tailscale (which you can also selfhost: headscale)
Additionally you could also set up your own independent wireguard server to get more granular control for routing and firewalling. But you would need a device that’s running 24/7 (same for headscale). A raspberry pi would probably be enough for that.
Have you already tried implementing an identity provider like Authentik, so you can add OIDC and ldap for all your services, while you are the only one that’s using them? 🤔
Can relate. Improved my experience greatly by not browsing „all“ anymore. Just subscribed to everything I deemed worthy or interesting and stayed in my home feed. Sometimes I go into All to find some new stuff, but that’s a rare occasion.
Btw I use Voyager so I can see total upvote/downvote counts on users. Helps me weed out a lot of people that seem to be assholes on a regular basis. Yours is at 2 upvotes, so we seem to resonate somewhat ❤️
I’ve set up navidrome a long time ago, way before I’ve started using Jellyfin. And it just runs like a charm paired with some great clients for the subsonic ecosystem. So honestly it never even occurred to me to use Jellyfin for music.
Edit: I left out some stuff that you or others already mentioned. But here’s the extended list so I can copy/paste this if someone else asks in the future.
