  • Oh no, I am sorry i should have been more specific. Homelab = Selfhosting. Those 2 terms get thrown around interchangeably? i think the word is.

    Basically my homelab/Selfhost projects consist of things i can selfhost easily. Calendar, contacts/address book, my own “cloud” server, etc etc. Why do i need to let google know my calendar, or contacts, or my files. same goes for browser history/bookmarks etc. i use firefox so i run my own firefox sync server.

    other things are “luxery”. like music collection, and what have you.

    All in all, if i can keep my data 100% inside my house/server, then i am happy.



  • I am also one to fixate from time to time on a game or a show. However right now i am fixated on my homelab. trying to make the best out of it, but also my linux distro (i reinstalled just few days ago, and probably will reinstall it again).

    What i want from my linux distro (which i already have half done) is to be able to reinstall it, copy/paste command from my git repo and i am done. for software and fonts this is already the case, but i want to do more. like my theme on KDE, how i setup the taskbar, my dolphin layout, etc etc. so in future it can be copy/paste command + copy/paste .dot config files.

    ProtonVPN user here for a very long time.

    • No log policy
    • known for privacy
    • based in switzerland

    and my favorite of them all, has great core servers, secure servers (tor relayed etc), and my favorite is torrenting/p2p servers. I also use their mail server. The only thing i don’t use is their cloud drive and calendar (as i host my own).

    When it comes to just any VPN, i also host my own so i can access my stuff from outside.

    heard PIA is also good, mullvad would be my second choice if i wasn’t on protonvpn.



  • I tend to see big tech pulling shit out their asses like this every other week. Slowly trying to gain more power of end user, where the end user has no choice but to use said product.

    That is why i love open source projects and I think what you said is gonna happen. If google keeps on this negative intentions for AOSP, then for sure people will be fed up about it and fork to create their own thing. Besides, like u said, many messaging app, but i never saw a dialer app before 🤔 maybe they do exist, if not i am sure someone will create them.
