Curious about the specs of your machine.

Ubuntu sometime around 2008 or 2009 after there was an install disk in a PC magazine. I didn’t use it for long and went back to windows, but I experimented again with Debian a few years later and these days I daily Manjaro.

+1 for namecheap. I’m happy with them as a registrar. Their support has always been fast and helpful if I have an issue. I use CloudFlare for DNS as they were easier to setup something for dynamic IP.

I just use nginx alpine, if freenginx proves to be the better option later it should be fairly trivial to switch the base image.

I used to use Plex running in an LXC in Proxmox but when I switched to Jellyfin I did it through docker and I haven’t looked back. The setup was easier, maintenance is easier (updates can be scripted to be automatic really easily) and it works in a reliable predictable way like the rest of my docker containers.

I just have a VM in Proxmox that has docker installed and that contains all of my containers.

I used to run it on an old PC I got for free from a school made circa 2007 with a core 2 duo and 2gb of RAM and it ran remarkably well for such an old machine.

I think the ideal solution would be content warnings like Mastodon has, maybe these convert to NSFW posts for activityPub but within Lemmy surely they can work the way intended.
