Wow, this is really insightful! Thank you so much for digging into this. I learned something!
I’ve only been using it since… well… since I posted this. But so far the experience is great! They have an easy guide for migrating from Google Photos (basically they can import a Takeout export directly).

I’ve got it installed on my phone with automatic backups enabled. It had no issues with duplicates from both Takeout and the existing photos on my phone. (I even did the upload twice due to running out of space the first time, and there were no dupes). The app has a pretty similar design to Google Photos, so it feels familiar. It also supports Google’s version of “live photos”.
You can create links to share albums or individual photos, and you can also add people to your plan.
I enabled the local machine learning analysis and, while it’s not perfect, it does make for a pretty nice searching experience.
P.S. I promise this is not an ad! I’m running out of Google storage and figured this was as good a time as any to de-Google my photos. Ente came up as a frequent cloud solution. If you’re looking for self-hosted, Immich is far and away the most popular.
If you mean the chicken, it’s hardly an ad since I navigated to their site. 😆
Despite the title, I was just trying to check the menu lol. 🥲
Ok I take it back. It plays in Firefox on Android, but not on Windows. Also on Android, it didn’t play at first, I had to refresh. I don’t know what’s going on lol.
I kinda doubt catbox.moe is doing any kind of smart distribution. It’s a pretty simple file hosting site.
What OS are you on? The video plays fine for me in Firefox on both Windows and Android.
Also I think the codec is more likely to blame than the hosting provider.
This video comes from the official Internet Archive TikTok page. I’m not sure if that makes it better or worse lol!

Why is my dashboard broken!? reloads page Ok ok it works now
Too real…
I think if they were using a private IP, there wouldn’t really be a joke. Of course the router can resolve an IP in its network. The joke is that they’re using their public IP from inside their network, and when the request gets the router, instead of resolving externally, it resolves to the public IP of the router itself.
If the router supports hairpinning, the IP request can be resolved locally.
The domain name lookup would be a different issue and could potentially need to be resolved externally, but the router’s DNS cache should be able to answer eventually.
Because the title mentions having a domain, I guess.
This is based on a classic saying, “you scream, I scream, we all scream for ice cream”. In case you’re not a native speaker or it’s not obvious from text, the saying is based on the fact that “I scream” and “ice cream” sound similar, so it’s a bit of a pun. However, without the last part of the saying which references “ice cream”, it just sounds like there’s a bunch of screaming, which is pretty terrifying!
Thanks for this clarification! That is slightly more palatable.
