Probably. But I only recently found out walmart.com is comparable. With fast shipping and random contract drivers.
- Comment on We need a new Amazon 4 days ago:
But there is… Walmart.com in the US offers basically the same and often with 2 day shipping and in most cases same easy return.
- Comment on Starlink with self hosted? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think so. But I haven’t tried. I use the Starlink as more of a cold failover for when my LTE/5G goes down. $40/mo vs $120/mo for same speeds and LTE/5G has better latency for me. I work (tech) from home and live rural.
With DNS-fu you could have two VPS! I saw a project somewhere for nginx proxy manager that clones the settings. Then your only failure point would be the local tailscale.
- Comment on Starlink with self hosted? 3 weeks ago:
I have starlink. I use a cheap VPS. Tailscale and Reverse proxy to selfhost. I have docker running nginx proxy manager on the VPS with a could other docker containers running on the VPS like a speedtest and a few other things because I can. The heavy things like nextcloud sit at home and via the reverse proxy points it over the tailscale tunnel to my main docker.

I have two setup. But I live in the middle of nowhere. So no traffic. However I did get a fly by once. Someone flew over my house on a commercial flight broadcasting. That was neat. Doubt they were able to pick up my reply.

- Comment on Staying for the week at an AirBnB in Rochester, MN. This is what I just found out I'm stuck with. 8 months ago:
Its still expensive. I get better speeds from 5g/LTE. I live in very rural farm town usa. My LTE is through T-Mobile for $45/mo and average speeds of 80x20mpbs. Peaks around 200mbps down and 180upload.
I do have the antenna pointed directly at the tower above the tree line.
Wave form antenna kit - $400 Spitz modem - $400 But my only alternative was starlink so the ROI on this setup was real fast compared. I also have a Verizon simcard as a hot fail over. But that Sim is data capped. I work from home in IT so I need the Internets.
Ive thought about side hustling my setup and selling it to my neighbors. But it would just congest my tower more… Lol

They have the Spitz out now. I live rural and actually have this as my whole home modem.
I have a pfsense modem between it and my network for routing/vlan but its great! I have the modem paired with the waveform antenna on a 40ft tower. I love that it tells me connection speed to the tower similar to how your WiFi network adapter will tell you the speed between it and the WiFi access point. It will say like 200M. So I know I can get up to 200M but because of prioritization+usage on the tower my actual speeds are 80mbps during Netflix hours but closer to 200m when I first wake up.
Tldr: glinet makes some solid hardware and software. (I know openwrt did most of the heavy lifting. But its well polished. )

Yes its a setting. help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html The help doc actually using old.reddit as an example.

“If you VPN supports p2p just use that” what does this mean? Use p2p to access reddit? Is that a thing?

EBay doesn’t work well in general. Literally the slowest loading website.
- Comment on I'm not your pardner, guy! 8 months ago:
I use kagi.com as a search engine and it automatically does that for links I click on thru them. I think there is a browser extension for Firefox that will do this for you as well.

I saw these for the first time in Europe last year. I thought the cap was defective the first two time. Then I realized its meant to stay. I do not like it. Glad its not a thing in USA.
