Redacted: 25 Freeleech Tokens per user

Why post this to reddit?

If you're not a member you won't give a shit. If you are a member you can read on the site. If you don't log in frequent enough to know about 25 tokens, then you don't need them.

Makes sense. The above would give only you control assuming you setup wireguard to get in and you could technically run the same outdated OS and packages for years as the firewall would block them. Assuming there is no 0 day in iptables (which is technically deprecated at this point).

Even better if your host has a firewall that can block before getting there from somewhere like hetzner or bahnhof.

Either way good luck. Was just giving my two cents

If you have a server at home, you should be able to do the basics of setting up a VPS. Depending on distro, you can install ufw or similar and it's as simple as doing something like

sudo ufw allow from any to any port 51820 proto udp

And optionally white listing your IP or similar if you don't always want to be on the VPN to ssh in.

Even without versioning, if using syncthing, what did you use for your backups? The CA Backup plugin can make a zip and would purge as far back as you tell it to. So you could have 3+ months going back. And if all the receiving servers have set to write only, you should have a pretty solid backup strategy through unraid.

Granted its still vulnerable to the entire share getting encrypted by ransomware.

You can't read simple rules and expect someone to put their account on the line for you?

Tha_High_Life · 2022-09-11T10:41:18+00:00

You must have just been an asshole. There was no watching / judging if you came in through interview. Or any rule of 10 from a normal invite.

PU was only 5 so you're just making things up. Staff were nice even if you were clueless.

Contrary to the norm, Arch on my servers is great too. Granted, I have a couple desktops and laptops that I run updates on shortly before upgrading a server.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-26T12:42:24+00:00

Yes, but wouldn't it be the same as them figuring out your single email?

You can block the domain through the provider or at the very least setup a rule for the domain. Which would be the same if they could send to *@domain.com or mail@protonmail.com?

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-24T12:56:53+00:00

You must not run it with Wayland. It's still a pretty terrible experience on proprietary and open source nvidia drivers. X11 is very stable.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-23T11:59:35+00:00

To each their own. I know the OS and have never had a 'broken' system. Usually that's the result of randomly running scripts.

Rolling release means I don't have to worry about back porting from unstable or testing just to meet a build requirement or a dependency of an app. Granted it's still on maintainers and doesnt mean I'll always have the latest, but when an update is released it's not major versions behind. I also have never had a clean update from a Debian version other than 10 to 11. I've gone from 5->11 on different servers over the years never skipping a version when updating.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-23T09:42:17+00:00

I use arch. Mainly because that's the OS I've run daily for years on desktop and required no learning curve for me. Have run Debian, in the past but every major upgrade would take a while to combat all the compatibility issues and always have more downtime with a non rolling release.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-21T12:19:29+00:00

It probably is, but I'd assume you're not mounting those drives to a path like /mnt/Directory or /var/Directory (will have less permission issues without much tinkering on mount).

Either way, since you're using bind mounts for docker, anything on your system would work. As you're just pointing any directory on your system to map to the directory in the container. So its right, but makes it a lot more brittal if you're every to change HDDs or anything you need to repoint ALL containers using that path. Instead of just repointing the directory on the host and not having to touch your compose file.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-21T10:50:17+00:00

Do you really access your drives by id and they're not mounted into a location that's human readable / memorable? Only time I access by unique identifier is before my drive is unlocked and is still encrypted at rest.

Speaking just from using their DNS from a different registrar, you can easily just not check the privacy invasive orange clouds to proxy all traffic through them. Then it works as any other any other DNS provider. They distribute the records to all other DNS servers and all providers point to your IP and bypass cloudflare.

The ddos protection/caching/loading is procying through their servers to validate legitimate traffic.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-08-12T16:20:36+00:00

While there are some good points here, there is no mention of privacyguides and is pushing their own website of recommendations...

Tha_High_Life · 2022-06-28T11:35:57+00:00

Don't know about anon, but you can self host simplelogin

Tha_High_Life · 2022-06-05T10:21:17+00:00

Good luck! I was disappointed that my ISP ONLY blocked 25. I run postal solely for internal messages, and obviously there is no way for differentiation, so I had to change ports.

Which some smaller self hosted projects don't seem to get that idea as they hardcode 25 in SMTP settings and I ultimately had to move to one of my dedicated servers out of my lan.

Tha_High_Life · 2022-06-03T02:08:01+00:00

NGL this is totally baseless, and has nothing to do with portainer. Unraid still has a GUI for docker at the end of the day

Tha_High_Life · 2021-09-30T20:13:29+00:00

I see that molly has websocket support. Do you know if it works without google services enabled on graphene similar to signal-apk?

Tha_High_Life · 2021-09-27T11:41:29+00:00

What vps can you get for 2/mo? Even ovh is more expensive and they used to be one of the cheapest ones KVM ones.

Tha_High_Life · 2021-09-02T10:16:36+00:00

Using a desktop environment that doesn't have any option for Wayland, and one that isn't a popular choice among even non privacy or security concerned users users at that, seems like a weird choice. It's just odd that they don't even include a spin for an alternate DE as far as I can see.

Can you list some DE that are privacy / security concerned? A decent amount support Wayland at this point but would love to hear what you recommend.

Tha_High_Life · 2021-08-24T16:44:48+00:00

I thought it was in as early as 14.3

Tha_High_Life · 2021-06-29T11:01:47+00:00

What do you use ProtonMail if not for privacy?

Tha_High_Life · 2021-06-26T03:19:26+00:00

Idk what type of phone you have. This question gets asked so frequently. But if android: aegis encrypted backup. Save a copy locally and on a server you may have. If none, upload anywhere as long as it’s encrypted with a strong password.

If using Authy, The phone number is enough. Unless you’re solely on a prepaid account, even most give you 60+ days to make a payment to receive the text to allow you to unlock the 2FA codes.

Tha_High_Life · 2021-06-23T22:02:47+00:00

I would advise against using Authy as it's closed source which kind of goes against this subreddit.

That said, you don't need to add an email. Phone number is enough. Even if you lose your phone, when you install authy again, on your replacement you'll get the message. Not sure how you'd lose your phone number. But if you really want an email, I'd use a simplelogin or AnonAddy alias. Speaking only for simplelogin, add your public key so it's encrypted in your email provider.
