LADB can have a phone connect to itself over ADB and install apks which are stored on the phone. Maybe F-Droid can utilize this as an installation medium.

I’m in the exact same boat. I have a Jellyfin server configured and ready to go whenever something happens to really piss me off. This nearly was it until I saw that my lifetime Plex pass I bought 10 years ago will make it still be free for my family.
It’s probably that. While on cellular my IP isn’t 192.0.0.4 (but it is in 10. space), but there’s probably some v6 somewhere in the way.
I can’t get it to have network connection while my phone is on cellular data. On wifi it’s fine.


I used mostly this, but had to customize it a bit I think to get things working right. NUT feels like a super finicky system, but in the end it does work. My biggest issue right now is that it only reports a new status update to Home Assistant every few minutes, so the actions don’t really get a chance to trigger before the server shuts down. It also shuts down with the UPS at way too high of a percentage remaining, so I need to figure out how to make it wait just a little bit longer before the power down. It wants to power off like < 2 minutes after the power goes out…


I’ve got a project to look forward to. Have my Proxmox server with a UPS, running NUT to watch the battery percentage and power down gracefully if the % gets too low. I have Home Assistant watching that so it’s supposed to notify me before that happens. It’s not notifying me though, so I gotta look into that. I know it’s not working this morning because the power went out, so now I’m just sitting here theorizing instead of actually looking at it. 🙃
If you’re looking to actually do Fail2ban, look into crowdsec first. It’s a similar concept but instead of creating your own block lists by people hammering against your system until they’re banned, it uses community-populated lists to pre-ban known bad actors.
I know a lot of people shit on it from a decentralization perspective, but I use Cloudflare to expose all my services. Then anyone who hits my sites has to go through Cloudflare’s detections first. I have all my services behind a reverse proxy (nginx proxy manager) running locally, and that’s the only though exposed to the Internet through my router, also that ONLY allows connections at all from Cloudflare IPs or my local network. My home IP is obfuscated, my services can only be accessed using the ports I define, and things are happy. I also block as much as possible on my router, and have automatic updates on all my server VMs/LXCs.
You could also set up a Cloudflare tunnel to go to the reverse proxy and avoid needing to expose anything to the direct Internet.
Just turn off caching for any media servers domains/subdomains if you go with Cloudflare, or else it will try to cache any media on their servers and it’s technically a ToS violation so people get their accounts banned. It’s a simple setup to disable cache though.
