Adguard Home supports TLS, HTTPs, QUIC and other stuff natively, in case anyone reading wants to set up a pihole equivalent with less work for encrypted DNS.

Using firefox in strict mode with ublock origin, cookie auto-delete, and a VPN to change your IP every now and then should stop location tracking and cross-site tracking. Sites will still know you’ve visited them and what pages you’ve been to in that session, but that is impossible to stop.

The main thing is don’t use apps, they can collect tons of data and tie it directly to your physical device, and run in the background while not actively using it.

Using a web browser is really the safest option I can think of because you have control over almost everything.

True, it’s storing the IP address that is the issue.

Yeah sometimes, mostly I just like having a page where I can place things wherever I want, like tables, CSV files, PDFs, images, etc.

TBH I’m still using Onenote, I haven’t found a good replacement for it.

DNS-01 challenge with letsencrypt. Or use cloudflare tunnel and don’t use https internally.

That sounds reasonable, although I’d be worried about not having an extra local daily backup in case files get corrupted or accidentally deleted.

Both your RAID and NVMe data should be getting backed up daily to 2 different destinations, if it’s irreplaceable.

But to answer your question, just place the DB and cache files for Photoprism on the NVMe, and the photos themselves on the RAID.

This is a different app from bitwarden PW manager.

Glad it was helpful info!

I don’t think I’ve had any wear out yet, but I also am gentle on them.

Yeah that’s true. I just have worries that the app might do something weird and require a log in and re-sync.

Yeah for large folders and stuff probably better to use SFTP or WebDAV

Localsend works great for me.

I have another 2FA app (Aegis) with the same keys added for my email and any other critical stuff.

The other option for traveling that might be better is use Keepass with the file stored on your phone, that way no internet is needed and there’s no chance of lockout from your password DB.

True, modern hardware can easily route 10gbps or more though so for most of us that won’t be an issue. Often OpenWRT on consumer routers struggles to route even 1gbps.

I agree on the external AP, that is needed.

Yeah start with pass through, without that no physical hardware will show up inside the VM

If thats what your needs are. But proxmox has nothing to do with the hardware being better.
