Because if my router factory resets, the ports are closed
Your router doesn’t save your configuration? Port forwarding settings should not be affected by a router reset.
There are ~50,000-60,000+ available IP ports. If you had Wireguard configured correctly and running on every single one of them a port scanner would get exactly the same result as if every port was closed. Wireguard is completely silent unless the correct key is provided.
The “script kiddies” could scan every port for months and they’d get the same result. There is known no way to even know there’s an open port much less know that Wireguard is running on it AND have the correct key for access.
I understand being gun shy after your experience (I would be too), but that experience has nothing to do with opening a port for Wireguard.

My next objective is configuring Jellyfin for secure external access. It is fully operational on my LAN and is performing significantly better than the Windows instance I previously ran.
I have installed Tailscale on the Proxmox VE host shell to enable remote access and have also enabled multi-factor authentication on my proxmox account. While everything appears to be functioning properly, I am still relatively new to Tailscale and want to ensure I am implementing this securely.
My initial assumption was that I would also need to install Tailscale within the Jellyfin LXC container. However, I have encountered conflicting information suggesting this may introduce security concerns, particularly when dealing with container privileges and root access. As a result, I am uncertain whether this is the appropriate approach.
What is the recommended and secure method to provide external access to Jellyfin in this setup?
I can open the required port without issue. However, I would like to further educate myself on reverse proxy configurations, as I believe this would be the most secure and appropriate approach. Thank you!
What is the use case? Share with family and friends?
Hello there, good people of lemmy world! It was my mistake to never post Dawarich updates here before and I’m here to fix it! I hope you’ll find it interesting and useful.
In case you don’t know what Dawarich is, it’s your favorite free open-source self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline and your memory’s best friend.

Last 12 months of my movements across Europe (Germany and Norway mostly haha
Oh well, what a journey. It all started as a simple CRUD app with an endpoint to accept data from the Owntracks app for iOS. The first versions didn’t even have authentication! Why bother, thought I, if I’m the only user. And look at us now.
So, let’s have a look at our current set of features, shall we?
As of today, we have: - Location tracking - Via Dawarich for iOS and Android (yeah we have the Android app now!) - Via GPSLogger, Overland, OwnTracks, Homeassistant, PhoneTrack, Colota and whatnot - Location visualization - On a flat surface or on a globe - As points, routes, heatmap, fog of war - As extra layers, such as scratch map - Visits, areas and places - Can be created manually or detected and suggested automatically - Tags for places, including privacy settings (hide my location history in X meters around a place that have a tag with privacy settings assigned) - Family - With full privacy and location sharing only on consent - Map tools - Places, visits and areas creation - Area selection tool (to show visits and manage points in selected area) - Transportation modes - Replay tool (oh I love it, gonna tell a bit more about it below) - Map search: enter place name or address to see when you visited it - Trips - Utilizing photos integration to show photos along the trip route - Stats - Total distance, points, countries and cities - Per-year and per-month distance traveled charts - Insights - Per-year distance traveled - Traveling heatmap - Countries and cities visited - Days traveled - Year-to-year comparison - Monthly insights - Activity breakdown (stationary vs driving vs walking etc.) - Top visited locations - “When do you travel” patterns - Imports and exports - Almost a dozen of supported file formats to import - Export to GPX, GeoJSON and full user account export
Huh, that’s pretty much it, right? I mean, what a progress. All thanks to you and your support guys.
At the beginning of this year we’ve finally released our own Android app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zeitflow.dawarich
It’s, of course, still rough around the edges, but I see it as a huge win and an opportunity to do more exciting stuff on the mobiles. The main focus, of course, is the tracking quality, and I think with the most recent release we got there and it works pretty stable now, but what do I know, I only yesterday ordered an android phone for internal tests! :D But seriously, please do share your feedback, it’s crucial for the quality of our apps. Once again — thank you.
By the way, we also have an unofficial android app built by sunstep, a member of Dawarich community: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sunstep.dawarich. Check it out as well, he put tremendous amount of work into it. The mobile shift
We’re working on moving the iOS app to the same codebase, as the Android one, so they would effectively share the same UI layer, while keeping native location tracking mechanisms for both platform under the hood. This means that the iOS app will rather soon be updated and both apps will have a green light to receive new features.
This is important, because we want our apps to able to do more. Dawarich started with the idea to bring convenience of the big screen back when Google killed the web-based Timeline, but hey, it’s 2026 and people are running around with phones in their pockets for what, 15 years now? Or more, I didn’t check that, but the idea is that web is awesome, but it’s also very convenient to be able to quickly check your data on your smaller screen while commuting or otherwise not having access to the bigger screen. That’s why we want to bring more viewing functionality to our apps. Trips, stats, insights (they are already there in the Android app by the way) and more.
And, just to make it clear: all 3rd party mobile clients currently supported will be also supported in the future. We have no plans enforcing our users to switch to our official apps. The choice belongs to you. The Replay
Remember I mentioned a replay tool in the feature list? Well, check this out:

sounds of excitement
I initially called it “Timeline” but the actual Timeline was introduced a few days later, so I renamed it to what it is — the Replay button. Love it.
More than a hundred people (I think the number is now closer to two hundreds) supported and keep supporting us financially during these two years, and as a small token of appreciation, we’d like to offer a nice shiny Supported Badge that will be shown in your Dawarich UI, see the screenshot.
It glows and changes its colors!
It’s an optional thing, that can be enabled in Settings -> General -> Supporter Status form. Just enter the email you used to sign in on a platform you supported us through (GitHub Sponsors / Ko-Fi / Patreon), and if it’s in our supporters list, you’ll receive this nice shiny badge. It can be disabled though, in case you don’t like it. No pressure.
The webhooks from GitHub are currently a bit broken, so if you donated via Github Sponsors and verification didn’t work for you, feel free to reach me directly and I’ll add you to the supporters list manually.
We already have some new features in progress, so more good stuff is coming. One particular thing I’m super excited about, but I’ll keep it a secret for now. Just wanted to heat up the excitement a bit :D
Aside from the plans for mobile, I’m working on improvements for trips, visits & places (which are begging for an UI/UX rework) and some stuff will be introduced in order to reduce the database sizes of your self-hosted instances. Keep an eye on the releases, it’s all there.
Once again, I want to say thank you to all of you: for reading my posts, for installing Dawarich and trying it out, for providing feedback, for creating issues with thorough bug reports on GitHub, for testing our Android app during the beta period, for being part of our Discord community. Thank you to all of our contributors: we have a few PRs with meaningful contributions opened and some already merged, one of them reduced time of our docker images build from ~70 mins to roughly 25 mins. We have a lot of low-hanging fruits waiting to be fixed in our code, simply because I don’t always have time to address all the known issues. Don’t hesitate to dive in and open a PR if you feel like you can improve something in Dawarich.
To save you a scroll, as always, the links one more time:

The work continues, and there will be more, better and faster.

Truely amazing. If only there is an app that won’t completely deain 69% of bayyery in 3 seconds on Android.
Please get the app into f-droid.
Also this is packaged for NixOS, yay!
It felt slightly off, but reminded me of the original after watching the second episode. They fit in some good heartfelt moments with Dr. Cox too in the first episode We’ll have to see if they can maintain it
I enjoyed the 1st couple of episodes that are out. I think they’ve done a real good job. Unlike a lot of other her revivals it still feels like the original run to me and not like everyone is trying to remember who their characters are.
Basically a carbonara with extra steps - fry your guanciale cubes, set aside. Reserve the fat from the guanciale. Then, fry the meat from a fennel salsiccia, add a bit of passata. Mix cooled down guanciale fat with pecorino and egg yolks in a bain marie to create a creamy sauce. Add pasta and a little pasta water to pan, cook until all dente. Combine with sauce, fried guanciale and serve with parmeggiano cheese and fresh black pepper.
That looks lovely. I’d need to substitute a plain sausage, as I’ve an aversion to fennel, but I doubt that’s substantial harm done…
Nah, you can absolutely use any type of salsiccia you like. I happen to love fennel seeds in the resulting dish so I use that type.
Might be a rumor…
Is that a way to make win11 less unpopular?
AI hallucination.
I’m not generally into watching other people play video games and TTRRPGs (though as sportsball fan I can’t judge), so I waited a while and then came in cold on Vox Machina, but after letting the tone of it wrap around me, I decided I really like it. They really take a very generic setup and let it breathe enough to make them interesting.
I also realized that their dungeonmaster/CEO/“assorted voices” guy is one of the creatives behind a guilty pleasure of mine from several years back, the microbudget “Mythica” series that is, no surprise, pretty much just a D&D campaign, with just enough money thrown at Kevin Sorbo to get him to do a day of filming so he can be on the cast for the streamers.
love how these means we’ll be getting two critical role series a year with mighty nein coming in the fall/winter :)
A few weeks ago my friends dog ripped up the screen on my storm door.
Today I got replacement screen and installed it into the existing frame.
But it doesn’t work : the screen doesn’t show anything.
It’s hard to tell with these brightness settings but it’s showing you grass.
