Comment on My Dream of a Home Router / Server

  OP is about solutions that include certain features out of the box in an easy to use package.

  Rolling out a conglomorate of those features that you’ve manually set up and ducktaped together by hand is irrelevant. That could be done for many decades already.

    I didn’t tho.

    You’re confusing my homelab with my dads OMV NAS that is running kopia as its only non-standard service because I wanted to use it as my off-site target.

      @MentalEdge @HelloRoot Yeah I'm really thinking about something that you could fling at a friend - maybe someone who setup their phone, home router, google home or amazon alexa - and they would come out at the end with something that resembles a working internet connection and online identity.

        @MentalEdge @HelloRoot Its going to have some really basic questions - Where are you located, who is your ISP, what kind of connection for the internet do you have coming into the house, but then also things like - what do you want your domain name to be - who else is in the house? are they an adult? get them to connect their device to the wifi, what domain name do you want to register/ use? Do you want to connect to any friends/family? Do you want to configure some of these home automation devices I we have detected?
