    This was the final push that convinced me to rebuild my server from scratch! I started doing so 3 weeks ago :D

    I was running my containers on a single good old Debian, that I replaced with Proxmox. I set up several VM that don’t share anything between them :

    • One for all the services I don’t really care about, like game servers and utilities with no personal data.
    • A second one for services in need of a GPU passthrough (Immich and Jellyfin) and partial access to some of my data (photos and movies in this case)
    • And a third one that gets access to all my personal data, only hosting a container for WebDAV access and a web file browser. I might hide these two services behind a VPN in the future if I feel like doing so, for now it is still to practical to have them freely available…
    • A last VM is running network related app like my reverse proxy.

    I should have done this years ago, but I’m still learning and learning costs time :p

    Next I want to hide all of Internet facing services behind an identity provider/application proxy (I don’t really know if it is the right way to name it ?) like Authentic to totally block access to any content from unauthorized visitors.

    I guess I’ll be mostly fine once this is done ^^

    Hi there ! If your i5 gen10 can only handle one 4k transcode, you might want to double check if your hardware acceleration parameters are correctly set ^^

    My home server runs on a small Intel N100, a 4k transcode eats up 30% of the CPU at most. I checked, it can transcode 3 streams without any lag, up to 4 transcodings if nothing else is eating the cpu. I’m not using Plex though, I got Jellyfin. I don’t know how Plex handles things.
