Lots of good suggestions already, but if you have to stick to YouTube, you could always use a third party client. FreeTube for desktop and Newpipe for Android. They function great. You don’t need an account and can organize and export your history and subscriptions, it’s a much better way to interact with YouTube than the official methods. Newpip even allows for background playing.
Aw I didn’t realize that. It still works fine on my end. I get warning notifications in my windows VM, but everything still works. On Linux everything runs smoothly no errors. I think newpipe on Android is my most preferred implementation of a third party YouTube viewer so I’d love a desktop version of that.
One thing you can check out is quadlet, which is podman containers running as systemd services. You just basically put the .container files in the right directory and sytemd will pick them up and run them for you. I have syncthing and zerotier running like this.
I don’t really think you need to layer anything unless you’re doing virtualization, but I haven’t really looked into that yet.
I did forget to mention that. The IP addresses of the devices on the LAN do not share the same first half of the address as the IP on the ISP router. I have the OPNsense LAN set to track WAN interface, but the DHCP server is stuck saying “No available address range for configured interface subnet size.”. I also noticed that my WAN for OPNsense has a global routable IP starting with 2402 as well as a LLA starting with fe80 but my LAN only has a LLA.
Which routes and firewall rules should I be checking?
