If you are successful as a content creator, whatever the platform, you have great marketing, communications and branding skills. How transferable do you want the skills to be?

Maybe Signal drains battery when it can’t use Google Play Services for notifications and falls back to keeping a connection alive to Signal servers instead?

If selfhosting the family chat is not a goal in itself and it’s about privacy or being independent from big tech, just take the loss and go to Signal. Much smoother experience than any self-hosted messenger can provide for now.

It’s incredibly small. Highly developed urban areas, great cycling infrastructure, better trains than Germany, mild climate year-round, some parks and the rest of the country houses the highest concentrations of cows, pigs and chickens.

Housing prices are even worse than the rest of Europe, income tax is high, cost of living is high, but still worth it for many people due to good work-life balance, child-focused education, good infrastructure, mild climate and basically almost Scandinavian culture, but with more sunlight.

We can be quite closed off and hard to get in touch with, and even rude. I usually tell Anglo-Saxons that we may seem autistic compared to their social norms.

Yep, and then there’s probably a good number of people who have no idea of threat modelling who just copy those actions to say they have “good privacy”.

Tbh, I’m closer to the latter.

The problem with non-PLP drives is that Rook-Ceph will insist that its writes get done in a way that is safe wrt power loss.

For regular consumer drives, that means it has to wait for the cache to be flushed, which takes aaaages (milliseconds!!) and that can cause all kinds of issues. PLP drives have a cache that is safe in the event of power loss, and thus Rook-Ceph is happy to write to cache and consider the operation done.

Again, 1Gb network is not a big deal, not using PLP drives could cause issues.

If you don’t need volsync and don’t need ReadWriteMany, just use Longhorn with its builtin backup system and call it a day.

I tried Longhorn, and ended up concluding that it would not work reliably with Volsync. Volsync (for automatic volume restore on cluster rebuild) is a must for me.

I plan on installing Rook-Ceph. I’m also on 1Gb/s network, so it won’t be fast, but many fellow K8s home opsers are confident it will work.

Rook-ceph does need SSDs with Power Loss Protection (PLP), or it will get extremelly slow (latency). Bandwidth is not as much of an issue. Find some used Samsung PM or SM models, they aren’t expensive.

Longhorn isn’t fussy about consumer SSDs and has its own built-in backup system. It’s not good at ReadWriteMany volumes, but it sounds like you won’t need ReadWriteMany. I suggest you don’t bother with Rook-Ceph yet, as it’s very complex.

Also, join the Home Operations community if you have a Discord account, it’s full of k8s homelabbers.

There will be tougher usecases to migrate. Which, depends on how you use Google.

For example, I’ve never read Google News but am having trouble replacing Keep for synced, widgeted notes (groceries etc) on phone, as well as GSheets for synced, collaborative excel-like sheets with good mobile UX.

Also, I would bundle mail and calendar in one (it’s a single button to import both in Proton and those services are tightly coupled) and check your duplicate browser/chrome mentions

Heard of Headscale?

OK, no RouterOS then

ASUS is Taiwanese. TP-Link is Chinese

That’s a shame. It would’ve been nice to have a good European manufacturer for network devices

That’s crazy and genius!

The way I understand it, there’s 2 use cases for a VPN, with different concerns and providers:

• having access to your private home network from anywhere, through an encrypted tunnel (Tailscale, Wireguard on the router, etc)
• having your outgoing traffic to the internet go through an anonymized exit node so that your ISP can not watch or sell what you are doing (ProtonVPN, Mullvad VPN, etc)

Is Tailscale fit for the second? I thought not, as the exit node is not an anonymized VPN server but one of your own machines.

It really is super simple
