Cannot connect to server anymore

Hello, I've been using Jellyfin for a while now, occasionally due to having a dynamic IP I need to reconnect to a new server, but I just click "choose server" and it will find the updated one.

Today I cannot find any servers, I have tried manually entering my IP address (which is the same on both my laptop, the host, and my devices) but to no avail. I cannot connect on my TV, phone, or tablet, which all used to work before.

The only change in my setup is I have been using SmartDNS proxy, to watch some football, however I used there trial run for 2 weeks and it was fine, then I paid and now my Jellyfin doesn't work. I've tried disabling the SmartDNS, and it still doesn't fix the issue. I'm not sure if it's just a coincidence, since I paid for SmartDNS like 18 hours ago, and I didn't use Jellyfin until now, so maybe something else has changed.

I've tried disabling, reenabling SmartDNS, restarting all devices multiple times, restarting the router

How to use a phablet again?

Hi all, I've been using a Jelly star for going on 3 years now.

Due to the recent weak battery performance and giving up on any update, I have decided to get a phablet (yes I still use this term XD)

The problem is, how do you fit it in your pocket? I often wear shorts with the pockets on the sides (unlike jeans where the pockets open on the top) meaning it's quite easy for things to fall out.

I use a lanyard sometimes, but it seems ridiculous to have a phablet around my neck, also it might cause strain lol

I was looking into those belts with the phone pouch and just realised I'm not that old...or maybe they could make a comeback?

It's been a good run, and I'm not happy to be leaving the small phone world, but even though I still value a proper screen size, other factors have become more important for me

Looking for a watch

I'm looking for a watch to replace my Amazfit GT 3.

I'm looking for something with great battery life, I typically would get 1 week about of the GT3 (apart from more recently when the battery perfomrance started to decline)

I don't really care about sports tracking and fitness, I only want to track my sleeping and my steps

Cheap, like $100USD. 5 years ago, the GT3 had these things with a pretty good build/design. the improvements made over the years have been mostly with the sports tracking, so I feel a bit like the build quality for this price range has gone down.

things like notifications, AOD, and music control, as well as stopwatches/countdowns are pretty universal, but I should include that too

Chinese Red Dead Redemption?

If Sleeping Dogs is the Chinese GTA, then what is the Chinese Red dead redemption?

Ghost of Tsushima seems close, but it is Japanese

Where winds meet is Chinese, but maybe a bit too magical

I don't know about Wukong black myth

I haven't played any of these three games, which one is closest to a Chinese Red dead redemption? Or is there something else.

Realistic, gritty, Kung Fu/martial arts, good story and characters

What is the most "Chinese" instrument?

For Chinese folk music, which one conjures the most uniquely Chinese vibe?

If it's a flute, which one specifically

A Realistic Hourglass app

I've been looking for an app that can count up and count down, and I'm really struggling to find it.

I realised the correct term is 'hourglass' or 'sand timer' but all the ones I can find only count in one direction.

I'm looking for something that can help with productivity, a basic use case would be I play video games for 54 minutes, then flip the hourglass and I have to go an run the clock down.

The closest thing I can find is a chess timer app, but it just has two separate timers and they both count down.

I'm pretty close at this point to buying a real hourglass, but I have this old 8 inch samsung tablet that runs pretty slow but would be a perfect place to host this app.

Any timer app that can go up, and down would be fine, or even a website
