[solved] Why can't I access this service over the LAN?

edit:
I needed to edit ~/.config/qui/config.toml and bind the host to “0.0.0.0”
I’m running Debian (12) and I just installed qui, a single binary dropped in /usr/local/bin. When I fire it up, I can access the web interface on the local machine via localhost:7476, but I cannot access it over the LAN via the server’s IP. Firefox just says ‘Unable to connect’.
I can access a dozen other services over the LAN, and as far as I’m aware there’s no firewall enabled by default.
What gives?

I’m pretty sure mine is a 2B as well, but I’d have to go digging behind the TV to know for sure. I know it’s not newer than that. It works fine for me running LibreElec+Kodi+Jellyfin, but I don’t play anything more complicated than 1080p h264. If you want HD or Atmos or whatever complications, yeah, you’ll want hardware decoding.
The ethernet jack is also a plus for me, but I think most video will stream satisfactorily over WiFi these days.
