Thanks! Looks like it will work.

Thanks this looks great!
Just regular old WinSCP, or XPipe for smaller stuff and editing config files.
I need a GUI, I'll use rsync to migrate a lot of data to a new server or something occasionally, but it's just a pain compared to a nice graphical file browser.
Yeah that's not the issue, it's just their auto-discovery not working on my network.
Well this is a good reason to finish my migration to Jellyfin I think.
I only use remote streaming a couple times per year, so paying for plex pass just for that seems a bit silly. Their online-only account auth is also super annoying if the internet is down.
It definitely has some issues for ease of use. For example Jellyfin for some reason will not find the server on my network in any of the client apps, and typing in a URL by hand with a TV remote is not fun.
I've used:
But for slower connections bittorrent is the best option by far because it doesn't care about interruptions, and verifies the data as it goes. Just gotta make sure you're port forwarding the client.
By default out of the box it will transfer over the internet if it needs to.
Syncthing is designed to be used over the internet, it's why it supports NAT hole punching, relay servers, and discovery servers.
Weird that their system doesn't flag the flood of political spam, if all it takes is one person replying stop a few times
You can also tell watchtower to cleanup images after update so you don't end up with all of those old ones.
I thought about it, but remote access is just something I use so rarely that it doesn't seem worth the cost to me.
Also I really distrust anything 'lifetime', historically those don't work out very well on most services.
