    Another consideration to keep in mind, if you use a free service to sign up for something like Signal, the chances that you’ll have that same number to use in case of account recovery, etc, are slim. So, I would go with a good paid service.



  • You might have to unpack that for me as the caffine and morning meds haven’t quite yet soaked in and I’m not up to operating temps yet. Are you talking about Cloudflare verification checks? Like, you click to a site, it asks you to verify if you are a bot or not? If so, with the Cloudflare Tunnel/ZeroTrust, no it doesn’t ask for verification. Now, in the options for the Cloudflare/ZeroTrust tunnel, there is a section where you can set that up, but out of the box, you don’t get verification checks.



  • Full disclosure, it took me a few tries to wrap this noodle around it. That’s usually par for the course tho. Some things just stump me for some reason. Caddy was like that until I kept pursuing it seriously. Then one day I read a tut online and lifted one paragraph that was essential, and ding! The lights came on, the clouds separated, and it was so clear. Now, to me, Caddy is very easy and I am embarrassed that it took me so long. But, that’s part of the journey.









  • Invidious

    I am keen to know how you keep Invidious operational? YT is on a killing spree to make it impossible to view videos unless you submit to their platforms. Ban hammering IPs happens constantly. I got frustrated and just use LibRedirect to access already established instances. I just don’t want to jump through all the YT hoops, listen to back to back un-skipable ads just to find out the tutorial I thought I was interested in was crap.
