Your answer could potentially help me un-fuck my website!

Edit: The total capacity is currently 160 GB, so no amount of pruning will free up 1 TB. I need to mount an external share or something.

Edit2: I'm trying this but the command isn't working despite zero exit status.

I might be able to do IPv6 but I would need to drop my VPN (IPv4 only).

I know very little about Wireguard.

Sorry, had to log off for a bit

It seems you need some kind of NAT traversal mechanism. Wireguard is pretty easy to set up, it's built-into the Linux kernel these days. I've heard good things about Tailscale as well.

Sorry I wish I could help more :(

I just setup tailscale on my home Ubuntu jellyfin server the other day for the first time and it was a totally painless experience. Been working great.🤞

I could totally see tailscale working in this scenario lol
