2nd this! Music assistant is so good

Maybe im just lucky but proton pass and bitwarden (vaultwarden) both work fine for me. None of my accounts are linked to google or microsoft.

What’s a pro trans voter anyway? Anti biggotry would be more accurate

I dont understand the issue. Arent passkeys and password in any case just stored in a pw manager nowadays?

Pangolin + pocketid has been rock solid!

Ukraine actually did it to hit russian gas revenues, it’s common knowledge nowadays.

No formal education in IT, I’m a GI surgeon.

I built my own gaming pc’s in mid-late 00s and i also knew some basic html just by the virtue of being on the internet as a kid and trolling at bulletin boards/trying to build some websites.

In 2018 i was miserable as a GP after finishing my medical decree. I was thinking about changing careers and I did most of the online version of Harwards CS50 course for fun. In the end i did become a surgeon and not an engineer.

In 2025 Trump II happened and seeing that the tech billionaires were in on it, I lost faith in the USA as a country. I wanted to get off all of my subscriptions and american big tech services, which I’m happy to say ive almost completely achieved. As i was searching for the best replacements for all the services I realized the cleanest and most future-proof path is to host my own.

I run nextcloud, immich, jellyfin, matrix, home assistant, paperless, ollama etc etc. There’s still a whatsapp account unfortunately. It is mirrored to my matrix instance so the (grapheneOS) phone i use daily doesnt have a whatsapp client but a matrix client instead. Nothing is happening on the phone whatsapp runs on.

This.

And graphene actually makes things very easy for you: every profile can have regular and private version of any given app.

The private side is essentially a different user with its own set of vpn options but you can easily navigate in between provate and normal apps.

Im using the regular profile for staying connected to home. All traffic is routed to home and then to proton.

Everything in the private section goes through regular proton vpn(the app on the phone) so any traffic to the web also has a different exit node to my “home” traffic (albeit a proton one).

I then have a separate profile called incognito with only proton pass, vpn and onion browser on it.

Ai gave the wrong answer and the patient dies - your fault.

You didnt trust ai, the patient dies - also your fault.

I’m using nextcloud+onlyoffice as office 365 replacement so this is simply excellent news! Glad i can get rid of onlyoffice the company.

Matter over thread works well too and is propably the most future proof option. The new ikea stuff is really cheap and mostly thread only. :) smlight slzb ultima3 hub will do both zigbee and thread simultaniously.

One could simply infer the location history from the logs though.

Would like Davids stars juxtaposed with the swatchtikas but that could get you in some trouble.

Yea in get that, i was talking in terms of total costs.

E: actually looked it up, most likely the whole thing wouldve been max 10000euros to the taxpayer around here (Finland). Workup+surgery+hospital stay.

Congrats! Sounds like an excellent prognonsis!

Also, Jesus fucking christ a 100000 dollars for a workup+surgery? A similar case is propably no more than 10-15k€ in northern europe (paid by the taxpayer of course).

This is what i did but on the router. I have openwrt on the router. You can install an extension called PBR (policy based routing) on it.

Then you set up one wireguard interface that’s in the same firewall zone as your LAN to your lan and another that’s in the WAN. You can create policies to route any outbound connections (including the ones from your mobile client devices) through the commercial WAN wireguard connection.

In addition for family members access i set up a pangolin instance (kind of like tailscale but selfhosted) on a Hezner VPS and a very simple oauth provider (pocket id) for authentication. Ive got a bunch of users and nobody had any problems with the signup process after i sent them the invite link.

That way i can always be directly in my lan but other users can access without accessing my lan at all.

Surgeon.

Seeing tech ceo’s at the trump inauguration got me sick in the stomach. I unsubscribed from everything out of spite and nausea and learned to selfhost over the course of what is almost a year now. At first it took up all my spare time and made my wife crazy. Now it’s been several weeks since i last had to sudo anything.

It also opened my eyes to how stupid everything IT related in my country is. My municipality for example bought for what has now become a billion fucking euros a digital health record system from Epic. It’s the shittiest piece of software ive ever used, fully closed source and there’s ongoing customization costs trying to get it to work. We’re also a 100% onboard with office360 (copilot and all).

As a phycisian ive used AI to check if i have missed anything in my train of thought. Never really changed my decision though. Has been useful to hather up relevant sitations for my presentations as well. But that’s about it. It’s truly shite at interpreting scientific research data on its own for example. Most of the time it will parrot the conclusions of the authors.

Just run a small linux pc and a wireless keyboard+mouse

Oh for sure feels like that in Finland too but apparently statistically speaking for every one of those families there’s a bunch of people who never reproduce whereas middle class educated people have 2-3 children pretty consistently.
