I just took a look at the repository for pict-rs and unfortunately nothing in the official docs about cleaning up images. Did you happen to use a bot to assist you in finding communities? If so this might be the reason. After two weeks of running, my image size is only 2.2mb. I should also ask you what the size of your database is. The activity table can get awfully big and very quickly.

The only way it would not would be if the ISP only allowed TCP ports 80, 143, 443, 465, 587, 993, and 995. Many public hotspots in my area do this plus deep packet inspection. You would need OpenVPN or SSH for a TCP-based VPN and then a means to disguise your traffic to look like an https session, over say, port 443. It's not easy to defeat but very doable.

Please reformat your comment using markdown syntax. I am unable to make sense of your comment. An example is below

Code goes here

When configured and tuned properly, I've seen WireGuard able to move data at a little bit better than 90% of the provisioned bandwidth of the line. This in of itself is amazing and an order of magnitude better than OpenVPN or even IPSEC considering the overhead that encryption introduces into the packet size. Also, if you consider extra data processing going on, i.e. packets are being encapsulated, encrypted, transmitted, decrypted, and de-encapsulated, this is even more amazing.

Would you mind providing some information for me? I kind of need to know your partition scheme here. From the command line, run fdisk -l /dev/sda. Also give me an lsblk. This would help me see whether these are actually partitions or directories. Then we can go from there.

I would go with Tailscale over ZeroTier though. Tailscale should perform better because it uses WireGuard as its protocol and WireGuard is extremely efficient.

The better way to go about it is using Cloudflare tunnels or Tailscale.

Xubuntu would be a nice easy one to install. Look into Arch as well. I actually run Arch just about everywhere and really like it.

If you'd like to make Jellyfin, or another service for that matter, I suggest looking at something like Tailscale or ZeroTier. Basically these create overlay private networks. There is a rather generous free tier of use.

May I ask what your end goal is? This will help me offer a recommendation. What would you like to do? Host Jellyfin for friends?

This is still a good one to repost because it can otherwise get buried in the mix. I have this site bookmarked.

One thing you could try doing if you feel up to it is to build Tailscale from source code. Often when built for your specific machine, performance improves.
