ENS stands for Ethereum Name Service

“ENS domain”

IPFS is also strongly related to several blockchain stuff (not a blockchain itself though)

ENS domains ?

When looking at the CVE itself, it seems like a bug that only gets triggered on a very specific corner case that neither the client or website alone can trigger.

Of course, it’s good that it gets reported and fixed, but I’m pretty sure these kind of bugs can only get caught by people randomly stumbling on them

I’ve read somewhere Mullvad no longer offers port forwarding. Do you still manage to seed without it ?

I’m personally using Docker MailServer. It’s been working great for over a year now, but mailu seems to have some interesting features (I’m especially interested in the admin panel)

Are you using it to seed torrents ?

Thank you for the clarification.

I’ve also read that it’s illegal in Switzerland to gather IP addresses because they are considered sensitive PII. Do you know about this, and does it protect me in any way if I use a swiss datacenter IP for seeding my torrents ?

This does not answer the question I asked. I’ve already considered a commercial VPN and I’ve ruled it out (clearly not cheaper, unless you can find a decent VPN with port forwarding that costs less than 2€/month)

I’ve considered it and ruled it out. That’s why I’m specifically asking for a VPS to install my own VPN own.

I’m really not interested in paying 5+€/month when I can build my own for a fraction of that cost

I want to use my own storage at home. I’m not gonna pay for several TB of storage on a seedbox when I already have the HDD

Thanks, I’m going to check it out

As far as I know, tailscale still requires me to set up my own exit node

Thank you. I’m definetly gonna check it out

You’re probably behind a CGNAT, check out the other comments

Glad I could help :)

Your ISP might make you go through another layer of NAT. Can you find the WAN IP address of your router and compare it to your public IP address from a website such as ipinfo.io ?

If they do not match, you’re probably out of luck and will need to forward your port from an actually public IP in order to achieve what you want

More details : CGNAT (Carrier Grade Network Address Translation) is basically a second router between your router and the public internet. This second router is configured in the same way as your personal one, the main difference being that your ISP fully manages it. From the viewpoint of this second router, your WAN IP is a private IP, and you share one actual public IP with several other customers (the same way all devices on you LAN share one single WAN IP)

Performing port forwarding from the public internet to your LAN, when behind a CGNAT, would require you to be able to configure a forwarding rule in the ISP’s NAT, which you usually cannot do.

Something’s odd with the numbers from fediverse observer. Numbers shown in monthly graphs should be about 30 times higher than numbers shown in daily graphs, but they are about the same

Recently, 2 different user agents started scraping my Lemmy instance at nearly the same time : AmazonBot and ClaudeBot

I wonder if (and how) it may be related to this headline
