There are tons of rugged smartphones out there, also some brands that focus on easy to repair phones.

The fact that they’re not well known kind of shows that the majority of the market doesn’t really care about those things.

This was the browser that required an account to even start using, it was just ridiculous.

Number of external connections means little without context of the content and what they are for.

Zen also attempts to remove the telemetry that firefox has baked in.

But Zen also has features other than just vertical tabs that are really useful, like Glance.

Opnsense kinda has a webUI for HAProxy, but it’s also not very good.

I recommend learning the config files, since HAProxy is probably the best option for a HA load balancer.

Yes some, but the power consumption is extremely high. A cheap $40 PC with an i5-6500 CPU would out perform it at about 1/15th the power draw.

This thing is mostly just interesting to play with.

Probably quite expensive, and when doing something as a hobby it’s often hard to get the funds.

when selfhosters can just help each other storing parts of others backup.

That’s essentially what Storj, Sia, etc… are for, they’re decentralized storage systems where users can contribute storage to the network which automatically distributes data over all the ‘hosters’.

The power draw will go up when a device is drawing power from it, but there will be base/idle draw of course as well.

LXCs are more an alternative to VMs if your use-case supports it.

Docker is its own thing with pre-made application images.

VMs barely use more resources than LXC, debian minimal probably needs another 50MB of RAM in a VM vs LXC and that’s about the only difference. It matters at scale but for home use it really doesn’t IMO.

That said LXC has some benefits over a VM of being able to pass through mounts and parts of devices, those can be useful for Frigate where you want to use Intel Quicksync or OpenVINO and still share it with the host and other containers, because you can’t do that on a VM unless you have a device you can dedicate to the VM only. You can also bind mount a directory on the host to a directory inside the container which is useful for sharing files between multiple containers.

I like the concept. But something without any central admins is probably going to be full of all kinds of awful stuff, and I don’t want to have to spend time strictly moderating my own feed, because if my client happens to cache anything illegal then I’m now potentially distributing that illegal content P2P which is a huge problem.

The mention of cryptocurrency or blockchain also provokes quite a negative feeling, it’s basically just a haven for scams and useless things, and any kind of integration with it I do not want to be involved with.

Yeah Exos are enterprise drives, so there’s no point in making them quiet like they do with lower speed desktop stuff.

You can add your existing photos as an external library after starting from scratch with Immich, they’ll show up just like before.

Sponsorblock will strip out ad-reads.

I doubt Signal is supported by their scheduling/desk software though, Telegram has pretty wide support.

Oh wow, the router allows Admin and SSH on the WAN port? That seems like a massive problem to start with.

WAN should allow nothing except established.

Does it even have push to mute with a keybind? It feels like their voice/video chat is super feature bare lol

Not great. It’s missing discord features like screen sharing and voice rooms (only sort of has them through a third party app, Jitsi, but that experience is… not great).

It also has moderation issues, lacking tools needed to keep spam out and easily control it when it does get in.

I recently deleted my account because there was a spam wave sending out room invites to anti-trans named rooms, and there’s no way to mass ignore, you have to click on every invite, click ‘ignore’ and wait like 15-30 seconds for the server to process.

Related to the above it has performance issues, a lot of UI actions wait for the server to respond, so just have a long delay to them making the user experience feel really crummy.

There are also a bunch of different client apps all with their own features, one will support X but not support Y and the other way around for another app, and there’s no guide on what app to use so that’s confusing.

Overall it feels like alpha or very early beta software, it works if you’re willing to deal with a lot of headache.

Just gave it a try, lovely simple interface!

Is it possible to show the container names or compose projects using an image? For example I have ferretdb showing a major update from 1 > 2, but I don’t know where that image is used so I can check or update the compose file deploying it.

Not really its job, it just shows you updates are available. No docker update manager checks for maliciously modified images.
