Paperless-ngx Alternative? (sh.itjust.works)

I've tried installing it about a dozen times over the past year, but it always gives an "unable to get image" error. So I'm wondering if there's an alternative that does everything paperless does...but lets me use it

Most likely some networking problem. I would need to know your exact setup to maybe know what’s going on

OK, what would you like to know? Everything on my network is connected via TailScale. I have a Win11 PC, a Win10 PC, and a Pi running pi-hole (as an exit node). The Ubuntu distro is running in VM on the Win10 PC

First see if you can ping the docker host to see if that’s reachable at all. Check what IP the ubuntu machine has and try and ping it from Win10. If we can do that we’ll troubleshoot further

My apologies for taking so long to respond. I've had network issues over the past week, everything has been so slow that low-res media streaming has been impossible. Turns out the Ubuntu instance was choking my resources, so I don't think it could be long-term feasible for me. Regardless, I can't measure my gratitude for you taking the time to troubleshoot this with me

Oh no problem. Glad I could… help? Haha If you still want to explore this, buying a cheap NUC from eBay could work. I bought one for £50 and it worked fine, as long as I didn’t have to transcode jellyfin lol
