I've had an Ubuntu 22.04 setup going for around a year, and over that year I've had to increase the size of the partition holding my /var folder multiple times. I'm now up to 20GB and again running into problems, mainly installing new apps, because that partition is again nearly full. I've used commands sudo apt clean and sudo journalctl --vacuum-size=500 to temporarily clear up some space, but it doesn't take long to fill back up, and gets less effective with time, til I have no choice but to expand the partition again.
Am I doing something wrong? Is it normal to need 20GB+ for var? Is there a way to safely reclaim space I don't know about?
Giving this a try, thanks. I notice in the comments someone said something about Cloudflare's ToS being limited to HTML and makes it sound like serving video through the tunnel could mean getting charged. I'm hosting movies on this Jellyfin server, so I guess I should be concerned?
Edit: I did some research on the Google Fiber reddit and it seems like broken port forwarding is a common issue with the provided hardware. Most say just BYO router. Sigh.

Tl;Dr: port forwarding isn't working after a network hardware upgrade, even after enabling it and rebooting all equipment, and without a firewall enabled.
I've been running a public-facing Jellyfin server on Ubuntu 22.04 for the past few months without too much trouble. Today I upgraded my networking equipment to a Google Fiber Network Box. I ended up having to set a new static IP address for my server device. I also had to switch from using the Google Home app to using the Google Fiber app or website to configure my network. Everything's working now except for port forwarding. The network settings give me the ability to forward ports, but port checkers keep telling me the ports I've opened are not open.
I've tried rebooting the server, router, and modem (and closing and reopening the ports) multiple times to no avail. UFW is installed on the server but it's inactive, and I don't have any other firewalls. I don't know what else could be blocking the ports.
I'm still sort of a newbie to self hosting, so maybe there's something I'm overlooking. But I've done several web searches and couldn't find any solutions I haven't already tried.
I did notice though that it seems every device on the network has the same public IP address. I don't know for certain that wasn't the case with my old setup, but it did seem strange. Again I'm not an expert on this stuff, so maybe it's nothing. I couldn't find anything in network settings that would let me change that either.
I've never used Tutanota but been a Proton Unlimited user for a few years now. I definitely like the mail service, and Drive and VPN are nice but can be slow, especially Drive. Everything else I don't have much use for, and honestly I cringe when I see the new stuff they're working on. Not that any of it's bad, but it feels like they're in the "can't just make a good product" camp, constantly trying to add on new stuff instead of focusing on quality. Could have it all wrong, though, I'm just a person, not an analyst.
KDE connect is a must-have on all my devices. I mainly use it for quick file transfers but other plugins occasionally.
I don't love old memes. They bore me. I see and make plenty of new stuff that makes me laugh, including laughing at consumer culuture. But most of thosr memes are not on Lemmy or Reddit.
Yeah, most people aren't on social media to see "what their friends are up to," they're there for the memes, the culture, the brands (including pop artists), whatever the latest "thing" is. Mastodon doesn't have any of that, or at least it's very hard to find.
Everyone's made good suggestions, but I wanted to throw out there that I just recently learned Kubuntu actually has been making its own line of custom-made laptops for a while, called Focus. There's a few different models, and IIRC one or two configurations are below $1000. You'll definitely save a buck by going with Windows-first options, but if you want to support Linux that'd be one way of doing it.
So what you're saying is that in the year 2062, every college bro is gonna have a Morbius poster in their dorm room
I've had multiple dreams where people from my past messaged me something meaningful, but before i can fully read it, I accidentally scroll past it and spend the rest of the dream frantically trying to find it again.
I like watching (and making) funny shortform videos on TikTok and Instagram reels, and I'd like to move to the fediverse as much as possible. Glancing around at PeerTube, it seems designed to replicate traditional YouTube with longform content, not something I'm interested in. PixelFed looks like the old Instagram, intended exclusively for photography and not memes of any kind, let alone video. So where can I get a quick haha off without a billionaire stooge breathing down my neck? (And let me know if this is the wrong community to ask, I'll gladly repost elsewhere)
Edit: before anyone writes any lectures, I realize video content is exponentially more resource-intensive to host compared to text and images. To be clear, I'm not demanding my every entertainment need be met by the fediverse right now, just curious what's out there.
Personally I'm not upset about it, I've been chalking it up to growing pains thanks to the migration.
Since web searches are almost useless for this kind of thing anymore, I wanted to see if anyone here has KC restauraunt recommendations for vegan eating. Been living here a couple years and have been to and like the Fix, Mud Pie, the Wooden Spoon, and Blue Koi, but I'd love to have more options.
