  • My understanding is that it’s technically against their TOS but loosely enforced. They don’t specify precise limits since they probably change over time and region. Once you get noticed, they’ll block your traffic until you pay. Hence you can find people online that have been using it for years no problem, while other folks have been less lucky.

    Basically their business strategy is to offer too-good-to-be-true free services that people start using and relying on, then charging once the bandwidth gets bigger.

    It used to be worse, and all of cloudflare’s services were technically limited to HTML files, but selectively enforced. They’ve since changed and clarified their policy a bit. As far as I’ve ever heard, they don’t give a toss about the legality of your content, unless you’re a neo Nazi.


  • I’m guessing the cloudflared daemon isn’t connecting to jellyfin. You want to use http://. Also is jellyfin the hostname of the VM? Using localhost or 127.0.0.1 might be better ways to specify the same VM without relying on DNS for anything.

    Personal opinion, but I wouldn’t bother with fail2ban, it’s a bit of effort to get it to work with cloudflare tunnel and easy to lock yourself out. Cloudflare’s own zero trust feature would be more secure and only need fiddling around cloudflare’s dashboard.


  • I’ve been using my Sennheiser HD 598 s for over 10 years. I’d recommend anything the same shape/size: being large over ears means it doesn’t touch or squeeze your ears at all. Being open backed and velvet padded stop my ears getting hot and sweaty. Being wired saves weight, prevents lag/quality concerns and isn’t too big a deal in a stationary gaming situation.

    I do need to use an external mic for chatting, which is not ideal if you’re gonna be always in voice chats when gaming. Dedicated gaming headsets tend to not sound as good for the same price, but can’t deny the convenience.

    Here is a recent rundown of recommendations by audiophile youtubers for gaming headphones might be worth watching. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIwgVzSiZ68
