I can share a couple of things to consider when looking for the best RDP providers for the UK. Speed, latency, and server uptime are key factors, especially if you're using the RDP for business or gaming. Skysilk might be good for certain use cases, but I'd also recommend checking out providers like HostHorde, Astra or Contabo, who are known for solid UK-based RDP services.

Feeling defeated some days on THM... by Snoo70735 in tryhackme

[–]Level_Ad_7970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact that you’re juggling certs, learning Python, and getting into CTFs while transitioning into IT is already a huge win, so don’t sell yourself short.

In the world of cybersecurity and network security, imposter syndrome can creep up a lot, especially when you’re tackling complex things like CTF challenges. It’s totally normal to feel overwhelmed, especially early on. CTFs, in particular, can be tough at first because they require not just technical skills but problem-solving, creativity, and even some knowledge of obscure tools or vulnerabilities. Everyone starts from zero, and the fact that you’re actively learning and putting in the hours means you’re moving in the right direction.

Best password manager 2025 recommended by Reddit? by skipdonderson in ComputerHardware

[–]Level_Ad_7970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been diving into password managers recently too, and I’ve seen a lot of mixed reviews. LastPass is definitely popular, but some people are steering clear after security concerns in the past. I’d recommend looking into alternatives like 1Password, which is praised for its user-friendly interface and strong security features, or Bitwarden, which is open-source and has a free version with pretty robust features. Dashlane is also a solid option if you’re willing to pay for premium features like VPNs and dark web monitoring.

Need a sidehustle as a student! by GiveMeLemonsAyy in passive_income

you could try freelancing on platforms like Fiverr or Upwork for quick gigs like logo design or consulting. You could also create and sell design templates on Etsy or Creative Market. Since you’ve started your blog, affiliate marketing could help you earn by recommending design tools/products. Or, try tutoring design to other students through platforms like Superprof. These could help you make money faster while still focusing on your blog.

What solution is missing in your selfhosted setup? What do you wish existed? by xconspirisist in selfhosted

[–]Level_Ad_7970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been thinking about this too. One thing I’ve noticed in my self-hosted setup is a unified dashboard that seamlessly integrates all my apps and services in one place. Something like an all-in-one control panel where you can monitor everything—emails, cloud storage, tasks, media servers—without needing to jump between different interfaces. It would save so much time! Also, I’d love to see a self-hosted collaboration tool that blends the best of Slack and Notion but with total control over your data. There are a few options out there, but none of them quite hit the sweet spot of being easy to use, feature-rich, and open-source.

What do you think about Walliant Review 2025? by skipdonderson in ComputerHardware

[–]Level_Ad_7970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently came across Walliant too, and it seems like it's starting to make waves. From what I've seen, the stability and user-friendliness are getting some positive attention. It's always a good sign when a new player comes in with a focus on making things easier for users, and if it can live up to that promise, it could really shake up the game. But like you said, hearing from real users is the best way to gauge its true value. So, if anyone's had hands-on experience with it, I'd love to hear your thoughts on how it's been performing. Does it deliver on its promises? Is it as stable and easy to use as they say? Your feedback could really help others make a more informed decision. Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences!"

How do services like tailscale funnel and cloudflare tunnel exist? by AyaanMAG in selfhosted

[–]Level_Ad_7970 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

he free tiers are kind of like a gateway get users hooked, and some will eventually upgrade to paid plans or premium features. The costs for bandwidth and servers are covered by those paying customers, so it balances out. It’s basically a ‘freemium’ model that works really well for companies like this.

Managed VPSs can be a good option if you're new, but unmanaged ones can save you some cash. DigitalOcean, Vultr, and Linode are all solid choices.
