You could try proxitok, which is a frontend for tiktok, similar to nitter for Twitter (now X) or invidious for Youtube.

You can set a creators page as a bookmark for example.

Since I haven’t used it for a long time I’m not sure how many instances are up or how performant they are. But I think it could be worth a try

I hade the same issue recently when I tried jellyfin server on my windows PC. In my case the private/public Windows Firewall setting was not successful.

But what helped was to open the windows firewall settings and to allow jellyfin do access the privat/public network. You can access the setting by opening the “allowed apps” section in the windows firewall settings.

Maybe this helps some other folks in the future 😊
