Ok, stupid question from a stupid person: if I have a phone connected to a local WiFi network, and I type in the URL of a subdomain which points make to that same network ie a hosted service on a home server, what route does the data take from the service back to my phone?
Alternative option: Truenas Scale. Supermicro motherboard. AMD Epyc (used) for lots of PCIE lanes. LSI 9300 and AEC 82885 expander. 16TB+ drives. Rack mount, with SAS back planea. RaidZ2 minimum. Special vdev, NVMe drives and dedicated apps and VM storage, don’t be afraid of a converged solution.
And fans. Lots of fans.
Have you got a recent copy of the configuration file?

I’m not the best person to explain the how or why but they are looking at Q3 for beta and Q4 for main release.
I’m running Immich, Nextcloud and Jellyfin on TNS and it’s fine. Nextcloud takes a bit of work though.
TrueNAS Scale will have Docker in the next release in August, along with the ability to expand Vdevs.
Probably not that helpful but Truenas Scale and the Nextcloud App, and then just used the Collabora “plugin” as I gave up using a separate Collabora App because I couldn’t make them work together. Probably going to have to fix everything again in August when the next TNS update drops (Electric Eel) and enables vDev extensions.
And here I am rocking an A71 that still works fine…why spend the money?
Offering my experience as an example: I’m a software moron (fine at building a pc, crap at using it) and TrueNas Scale was simple to install and then access on mobile, tablet and via windows PC, at least as simple network attached storage.
When I tried to use it to just jellyfin I hit a brick wall, completely unable to understand how to use the shared datasets.
But as NAS it’s simple with a bookmark to manage.
Thanks!
