  • I use Waterfox which forgets all data on exit, with Privacy Badger and Port Authority extensions with no exclusions.

    So far, no sites really “break”, if anything, they’re a little quicker… reading mode is nice to get passed paywall popups on most sites that want a subscribe.

    If at work, I include the company-provided password manager for all my sites I need. Still works well (unless my post gets attention and companies try to break it)



  • There are a lot of comments about setups, which is fine and all.

    2 things if you’re completely green:

    1. Yunohost simplifies a lot of installs and gives you popular applications with ease. You can SSH into it later for more customizations too.
    2. ZimaOS is a great NAS platform for basically any hardware. It’ll run Docker containers and gives you a little more control, but it’s a outlet more complicated for someone new. I see a lot of Synology references, just think of this like a free/cheap Synology. (Cheap bc they do have a “pro” version giving you unlimited disks whereas free is up to 4HDDs. I’m currently using 18 drives).

    I just feel this is the most automated and complete way to get set up quickly, both have forums and community support too.








  • Probably don’t even need that much, my cheap eBay laser pointer from 20 years ago damaged one of my first smart phone cameras in a couple seconds because I aimed it directly in. It was red, too, not green. Both work though.

    I didn’t want to some in my rites so I thought the camera lens would be OK. It was indeed not OK.
