Jellyfin and Nextcloud with UptimeKuma for monitoring. A pretty simple stack running on a mini tower, but it works great for my primary needs. Portainer for managing docker containers and stacks from a GUI.
I do believe Barracuda came out with a new authentication mechanism to replace the magic links at the end of April. They are suggesting folks move over the temporary passcode authentication instead.

I have began experimenting with this in my org today. I don't love sending auth codes over email, even if its only live for fifteen minutes, but we do need a solution to access shared mailbox quarantines without security team intervention. I suppose its better than the past magic links authentication we were using.
I wouldn't say it was a flop. A massive number of subs and users are participating at the moment (some forced due to the blackouts). But I do agree that reddit executives definitely don't give a shit, and will eventually just start booting mods to bring the subs back if they don't fall in line.
