   Finally! I've been using Discord as a place to field support issues for playit.gg and it's becoming a big burden now that we have ~800 active users. I've started stepping back and letting community members help eachother out

   I am so happy this is happening. Though the fine for noncompliance seems laughable at $300/day.

   Version 3 did, however I was needing to manage the TCP IP stack in application. I tried using and patching smoltcp, then made things more stable by linking to gvisor (a go project) but users were still having performance issues. Ended up la

   Oh, I was speaking for playit.gg, not sure about zerotier. I misread the comment thread.

   If you download and run the program it will launch the web browser to https://playit.gg/manage . On that page you should be able to add a Custom TCP tunnel. I don't quite follow the features you're looking for but

   At the moment the program only run on PCs, however a few users have figured out how to run it on mobile. But that's just for the server, the server that is tunneled can be connected to by anything. We have a few users hosting Minecraft

   That is correct. It's been difficult, I've had to rebuild the entire system 4 times finding new optimizations here and there. I'm at break even cost wise from people purchasing custom domains for $1/month, or $6/yea

   This system is a little simpler, it creates a public endpoint that will tunnel traffic to the game server over the playit program. So when the program and game server are running, anyone can connect to the server through the public address.

    Yes, I'm assigning a random port to each tunnel. I have been considering purchasing an IP space to offer a premium version but it's hard to make the numbers work at my current scale. Minecraft is quite nice as it supports SRV reco

    Yes, you're free to tunnel whatever you like with the custom TCP and UDP tunnels. We have users tunneling their SSH and FTP servers and all sorts of things. Though if the bandwidth starts disrupting game severs, I may need to reconside

    Oh wow, I just hit the ground running treating it like a hackathon. Didn't do much background. Thanks, I'll be definitely using this going forward.

    I'm really glad, thanks! My procedure was to Google, find an article lacking the answer, then go through IMDB. Great suggestions, added to the list. Excited for these improvements.

    Great idea, that shouldn't be too hard to add. I'll look into it.

    Ouch, it looks like I'm picking up the UK version. I need to make handling shows with the same name a priority. I downloaded shows ordering from most to least popular. When generating pages I go in the same direction. I must be generat

    Good catch, thanks! Added to my trello board. After work today I'll try updating my page generator to fix.

    Thanks! I did have turn off my scrapper before pulling all the data off IMDB. They have ~200k TV shows cataloged. I only managed to pull around 3k during the weekend.

    Thanks! That's actually the catalyst that got me to take the project on. It took me way too long to find the release date on For All Mankind after googling.

    On latest chrome, when I scroll down the homepage, the links in the header no longer work (no hover state or click handling). Project does look interesting btw.

    A tunneling service for self hosting game servers: https://playit.gg Has a decent little following right now.

    I built https://playit.gg . It's similar to ngrok or Cloudflare but for self hosting game servers. It tunnels the connections for your local server through one of our public servers. Has a good little following.

    Part of me wonders if this will just accelerate the usage of protocols that don't have a centralized entity to host content. If there's no need for the Section 230 protection, this adjustment is irrelevant.

    Yeah the comments are a little cheeky :). Pretty much everything was build in house with the exception of ReactJS and Redux. I mainly reused a lot of components from our front-end on https://merklex.io/trade .
