Collision, not pre-image attack (the two are different)

This is FUD. There is no publicly known pre-image attack against SHA1, the hash used in mainline DHT.
Do not expose Jellyfin to the general Internet. They have security issues, I would not trust that (no cloudflare does not save you by default).
There are basically two ways: VPN, or authenticated reverse proxy. VPN is probably the easiest to setup and the most flexible, but it’s a bit of a pita to use.
Authenticated reverse proxy will break apps, but the web app will work (and you can setup your reverse proxy to allow specific user agents from the VPN to bypass it, allowing apps on the VPN to work). I currently do this so I can look at metadata on my phone without a VPN setup.
You don’t even need the vps unless you’re behind cgnat Though you should never expose Jellyfin to the Internet, they have had and continue to have major security problems
I use a Firefox container tied to a socks proxy on my router to bypass VPN for tricky sites. Yeah I know not the answer you’re looking for but some things have to be done (banking, health insurance) and if they already know my home address there’s little reason to hide the IP address
My two issues with porkbun:
They don’t seem to support wildcard/catch all email forwarding
Dynamic DNS is done with an API key that has access to the entire account(!!!)
Though, I might move to them anyway (just moved a domain to namecheap which I used years ago and wow their ux sucks, and they don’t support dane or sshfp, Google domains was really good rip)
Fair, have never looked at the price, I just have a Linux mini PC running Jellyfin lol
And here I just press the right arrow key lol
Plex has so many antifeatures I can’t ever imagine using it, and Jellyfin is okay enough to use.
There’s an addon for that (I haven’t used it)
Why not just attach a non shitty device over HDMI and use that?
Lots of people do that, the Nvidia shield is one I hear a lot about
An RSS reader (I use Miniflux), ended up being extremely useful
This isn’t quite true, if three peers support https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro_Transport_Protocol, a third peer that has a port forward can act as a STUN server for the two peers without and let them connect directly to each other.
I don’t know how well it works in practice, but Transmission supports it so I’ll rely on it while this whole PF business settles down.
Miniflux is possibly the most important thing I self host. It tells me when software updates (basically everything on GitHub has RSS). It’s also great to keep up with blogs that don’t update consistently and also stay out of the “there are only three websites” bubble.
