Not trying to go down a rabbit hole, nor invade your teen’s privacy, but have you done any kind of packet inspection on what’s going out/in? Teens can surprise you with the kind of stuff they’re up to sometimes.

I’m not sure why your resolver started acting up but what you’re describing doesn’t sound like normal cause/effect. Four people on a residential connection, even if you throw in a ton of electronic devices and iot/crap that calls home constantly shouldn’t cause any kind of ISP engagement.

Not like it really matters, for 99.9% of people having a forwarder is easy and just fine and there isn’t good reason to troubleshoot it if there’s a working solution. I’m pretty privacy conscious and I don’t even think having my own forwarder is worth the hassle, I am just choosy about my upstream.

If pi hole is configured to use another DNS it will still forward your request, just not to your ISP DNS server. Essentially you’re providing your DNS requests to a 3rd party, for a slight boost to performance (because they’ll have tons of stuff cached and can do recursive queries faster if you’re requesting a site not in their cache.) Your web pages will load faster because you don’t have an SBC trying to manually figure out what’s the IP for bigfuckdaddyhairbrushemporium.net

The downside is you’re exposing your DNS queries to a 3rd party and it’s a bit of a privacy hit, as the upstream DNS server you select has your public IP correlated with your DNS requests. Doesn’t really matter to most, but it does for some.

Even if your ISP did have something in place to try and prevent abuse I find it unlikely it would trigger over normal traffic. Do you have a huge network/many hosts/exposed services?

And if that didn’t terrify you, I also prefer touchpads now. 🙃

Yep, really only use them at home

-Native desktop is for random shit

-“Fun” is for games, and… Fun stuff

-“Work Shit” is work shit

-“Bidness” is for home stuff that’s not necessarily mindless entertainment. Banking, home projects, etc

“Schoo” is for college

Bidness desktop is the only one that’s a giant beast. So many windows and tabs, each FF instance is relating to a home project with a ton of tabs, can be car shit, electronics, networking, whatever. So much shit. It’s like having too many tabs open but exponentially bad.

You haven’t really given enough information about your config to diagnose.

If you’re able to access it from your local network but not your outside network it’s a port forwarding/firewall or routing issue. My guess is it’s a firewall issue either on your network edge (likely integrated into your router) or on your server that’s hosting immich.

Unless you do one of the following you won’t be able to access it from outside your network:

-set up a VPN and tunnel into your network. Wireguard or tailscale/zerotier will be easiest.

-set up port forwarding correctly. Not my first choice, best to VPN in rather than poke holes in your firewall, especially if you’re a noob.

-set up a reverse proxy. This is a bit more complicated than a VPN or overlay VPN (tail scale etc), but it works fine and will be secure as well.

If you haven’t done one of those three things then you won’t be able to access anything from outside your network, for good reason - your firewall is by default set up to deny connections that are initiated from outside your network, so when you’re trying to connect from the outside it looks at your traffic trying to start a connection to your server and naw dawg’s it.

Edit: just saw from another comment you’re not able to connect from your home Wi-Fi. If that’s the case, are you running a VPN on your phone? That can cause problems. Have you tried using the server’s local IP instead of your external IP? 192.168.x.x most likely. You can try to disable the server’s firewall and see if that lets you connect as well. Is your server on the same subnet as your phone? 192.168.1.x and 192.168.2.x won’t talk unless you set your router up correctly.

Just shooting in the dark here without more info

Edit2: if you’re running inmich in a container or VM your configs on that might not be set up correctly to allow you to reach it as well. It can be a lot of things but my money is on firewall/routing somewhere. Start by making sure you’re trying to connect to the local IP of the server, then try to disable server firewall (don’t forget to enable it again whether that solves it or not), and see if that works.

Most places I’ve ordered blinds for will allow you to reorder a different measurement, up to a lifetime cap (like 4 times per person/household - you only get to fuck up for free so many times). The one I messed up they just let me keep because it was a custom size (still in my garage for some reason)

It’s a pain but it is the way to go if you want your blinds to really be good for the space.

Only time I’ve been annoyed was a cloth roller blind I ordered to cover a large door window that I measured perfectly but nowhere in the description did it say that there was a 1/8 gap at each edge and the overall width of the blind was 1/4" shy of your measurement. Returned that one and just got a bigger one where the blind was the actual width I wanted…

I believe the word you’re looking for is “comic”
