Very nice walkthrough. Gonna bookmark this.

Some of the alternative web-UIs let you do that. Photon for sure and I think Alexandrite as well.

Port 8080 is where the Web-UI / Web-API is running. If you want to be able to upload data and not just leech you need to forward port 6881 (and probably also tell QBT to listen on that port)

Since 0 comes before 1 you're probably gonna need to rename the files and possibly the metadata as well. Probably gonna need a custom numbering scheme to do what you want to do.

Well, you don't have that many brain cells in the areas people are doing that thinking.

I'm fully aware of what the word means, but I'm sick of it being used so often. There are plenty of other words in the English language to describe the situation.

I get that "enshitification" is the hot new buzzword but cold we please give it a rest. Reading this community you start to think that people can't express that the Internet is not to their liking in any other way.

For a VPN I picked privateinternetaccess (PIA) because it has port forwarding and I got a deal on a 5 year subscription for a one-time payment of $75.

Then keep it in the politics and news communities, and don't be surprised when you are kicked. You don't go protesting at the KKK meeting expecting to change minds just like you don't try to go to !politics@lemmy.ml expecting to change minds. If you are looking for real discussion then don't go to a community that is hostile to the discussion you want to have.

If you don't insert politics into normal conversations and you value relationships more than you value being right (left) then this should not be an issue.

Stay away from the political communities and don't feel like you need to correct people when they spout out political bullshit.

That's good news. Hopefully they'll get let you change your avatar in that new UI because that's one of the weirdly missing Photon features.
