- Comment on am i an idiot: selfhosting a Signal Proxy and/or a Tor Relay 3 months ago:
maybe i can incorporate a 501c(3) and run it as an NGO, ha! but, seriously, fair point. i have heard both horror stories (SWAT teams bursting in in the middle of the night, etc) and bore-er stories (ran an exit node for 3 years, nothing ever happened). i guess i’m worried, and that worry maybe implies that i should not do it just yet. Signal proxy might be the way to go.

yes, the instructions are definitely doable - i am just wondering if there are recommended home network hardening steps that one might recommend. honestly, my worry is probably more related to the Tor exit relay. i really want to do one, but i also do not want legal trouble. maybe i’ll start with a bridge, sigh. but thank you! no worry about tone, text is tough.

just wanted to update that i’ve added PiHole and Unbound DNS to my running stuff. thinking about doing a Wireguard VPN now… but that’s a 2024 project now.
good night and happy new year!

i am not sure - that’s why i installed Rustdesk, which is remote help tool. I’m IT in my daily life for an organization and also IT in my personal life for friends and family, so it’s helpful to have something like TeamViewer for personal use.

i have two old PCs refurbished as Ubuntu servers running the latest LTS version.
machine the first: - Taskwarrior - Taskserver - Docker and Docker Compose - local media and stuff on a 2TB NAS
machine the second: - Docker and Docker compose - Jitsi Meet server - Rustdesk server
coming soon: - PiHole - Unbound DNS - Plex (maybe) - Mealie (possibly with a dedicated ancient iPad that will live in the kitchen) - BirdNET-Pi
also possibly a home weather station built out of a Raspberry Pi 4B that is on order; i love the idea of having one of these in my backyard to track our microclimate.
