Soulseek With No Port Access to Forwarding?

I’ve got a big music library of CD rips that I’d like to share, but my ISP routes my traffic, meaning I can’t forward shit to my computer.

Why shouldn’t they all...

I figure this is the right crowd for finding a non-invasive TV so my Linux...

What courses or learning roadmap do you recommend to learn self-hosting basics?

Really enjoying lurking the last few days here. I have no coding experience, but like the idea of self-hosting a few things like Immich, Firefly III, PaperlessNGX, Nextcloud, and maybe Home Assistant. These are great tools even for non-tech people who care about privacy and functionality. I do run Plex off of a hard drive, and...
