New basic streaming bundles

As alluded to a few days ago, now that we can sell storage in 1TB "chunks", I've created some discounted bundles in the store for minimal streaming stacks.

For users who just want to get started with the basic toolset for media management, we now have bundles with Jellyfin/Plex/Emby, Radarr, Sonarr, and SABnzbd, with the option for 1TB extra storage bundled in.

The pricing is a bit of an experiment - feel free to send feedback re how you think these stack up :)

Why monthly, and why bundled discounts?

I wanted to make it easy(ier) for new users to compare our tools with other providers, and the bundles are discounted to make them slightly "stickier". A user unfamiliar with ElfHosted (ElfBuckz, etc) could simply purchase a bundle in one move, and then spend their $10 ElfBuckz on ancillary apps like Overseer, Prowlarr, etc.

SeaFile (more) Fixed

After yesterday's Seafile fix, we discovered that while the native apps worked fine, actually using a browser would fail to upload into Seafile, because of mixed content warnings (Seafile was defaulting to HTTP links, which were just being redirected to HTTPS by Traefik). This is now manually fixed for existing users, and automatically fixed for future users!

Seafile talks to rclone

TIL that Seafile can be setup as an rclone remote, so that you can use it for simple offsite storage, without having to use one of the official clients!

qBittorrent's lockfile

Another puzzling bug bit the dust today - it turns out that if qBittorrent doesn't exit properly, it leaves a lockfile behind, which persists with the rest of your config, and causes qBittorrent to fail to start the next time. We now auto-delete this lockfile every time the pod starts.

gluetun's DNS schenanigans

A final weird bug - we found that https://linuxtracker.org was unreachable via gluetun-protected torrent clients. This seems to be related to gluetun's DNS proxy / filtering features, which are intended to protect a user from leaking DNS queries. This has been fixed (by turning it off!)

Summary

As always, thanks for building with us - feel free to share suggestions, ideas, and whatever you ate for breakfast today!
