This might also become a hassle since basically all residential connections (likely of OPs friends) have dynamic IPs - if someone wants to join while OP is away, but their IP has changed since their last connection, now they have to wait on OP to update the firewall rules.

Apart from getting your MSA token stolen, there's not really much that can get around server login (yet). All online-mode logins pass through Microsoft (part of the reason why Xbox service outages seem to affect Minecraft so much).

If your friends all individually seem to stay within some certain IP ranges (ex, first handful digits always stay the same, 12.34.56.xx), then I'd say go ahead with whitelisting them fully (ex, 12.34.56.xx --> 12.34.56.0/24, CIDR notation). If they jump around unpredictability, I would stick with the username-based whitelisting and online-mode-only.

Teams works for me as long as I'm not taking calls, just have to switch the user agent to pretend to be Chrome (but only sometimes)

*.c files are C source files, you can't run these directly. Run the makefile with sudo make or sudo make install (assuming you have make installed) to build (or build and install) the driver.

edit: Oops didn't read far enough into your post, you've already tried make. What error does it give you?

The docs say jellyfin-ffmpeg is only needed on Debian distros, like Debian itself or Ubuntu, other distros like Fedora should be able to use their respective ffmpeg packages. https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/linux#ffmpeg-installation

Is there a reason you can't have root on your VPS? Maybe you could ask to have Jellyfin and ffmpeg installed by an admin?

If your willing to try it, you could unpack the .deb file with dpkg -x <jellyfin-ffmpeg-for-your-distro.deb> <unpack dir> and stick the resulting directory (directories?) in Jellyfin's PATH, but I've never tried this myself and I don't know how well this could work.

due to the way the Fediverse works (servers hosted on many different machines rather than one large machine), text search isn't (officially) possible. on Mastodon you have the option of searching by hashtags, but I don't think that works on Lemmy.

you would have to use an external search engine like DuckDuckGo, Google or something like https://www.search-lemmy.com/

Lemmy is still under heavy development, so these types of features aren't implemented yet. For now you probably would need to contact the admins of every individual instance you've used and ask for a data collection manually (this equates to a few database queries and possibly manual flicking through files on their side).

HOWEVER, this could be difficult depending on the admins and their skill levels with things like this, but should be of little issue (unless the admins refuse, in which case you'll have to find another way)

You'll want to get in contact with your instance admin to get that untangled

Spotify music is all encrypted rather well (at-rest when downloaded and when streamed), so the best "automatic" option there is are bots that try to match Spotify songs with YouTube uploads and get those instead, but I've never found those to be super accurate for what I listen to.

If you need like CD quality≤, your best bet is just doing it all manually, either through torrent sites, DDL sites, or Soulseek.
