As a non english-native… the title confused the hell out of me… had to read it like 5 times and still makes no sense

Why don’t they just rename it to “AdOS” already?

I think this part should be better left off to the actual tool that does a more promising job on security, like a firewall.

- Comment on Why is replacement for home device controls so complicated? 6 months ago:
Sure, but I was talking about the basic concept of how things work in general to keep it simple for OP.
- Comment on Why is replacement for home device controls so complicated? 6 months ago:
in a nutshell
This is how the control and information exchange of smart devices work:
Phone App -> [Server] … [Server] -> Smart Device and vice versa
There’s no way around this concept.
Now, Google gives you the phone app and the (public) server part. but these only work with their servers and apps, keeping you locked in.
HA gives you the same, a server and an app, but allows you to keep the server private (access via vpn for public)
Also who guarantees that Google Home will be there in the next few years? HA will still keep running even if it ever gets abandoned.

yeah, it’s such a shame that people think X is the right place to share important updates.
It fucking absolutely is NOT!
Yesterday I went to look up Trakts X profile to see whether there are issues with their API. X shows posts from 2020-2023, but nothing from 2024 even though there was a tweet from 2 days ago.
X is dead and should officially be declared as such.
- Comment on Authelia + Bitwarden + other selfhosted stuff 6 months ago:
Authelia is meant to be an SSO (like Google). In order to use it, you have to create users (and passwords) within the authelia yaml file, or connect it to light-ldap and do it via ldaps web gui.
You probably have other services running, i.e. immich, etc. These can be configured to use auhelias OIDC to authenticate the user against. you’d still need to create the users within the service, since I doubt they get auto-created.
Now, you can decide for yourself, whether to put your bitwarden behind authelia or not, and I’m not sure how the mobile apps work in this sense, if at all.
If you decide to do so, you just give your users their authelia/lightldap creds, if not, you additionally have to give them their bitwarden creds.
- Comment on Google Contract Shows Deal With Israel Defense Ministry 6 months ago:
The search is still bad, imho… If I search for a place, osmand doesn’t show the address in the list. So, I’d have to go through each of the items to find the one that I’m looking for.
- Comment on Google Contract Shows Deal With Israel Defense Ministry 6 months ago:
yeah, I tried osmand, but the UI is just “meh”
- Comment on Google Contract Shows Deal With Israel Defense Ministry 6 months ago:
I’m almost degoogled, in the sense that no penny goes to them.
- I use Fastmail for mail/calendars
- Revanced/Smarttube for YT (no ads, no money)
- Immich instead of Photos
The only thing I can’t really get rid of, is Google Maps.

oh ok, I thought the previous OP was some kind of mod on one of the instances I had signed up for.
thx for clarifying 👍

Yes! It should work :-D
- Comment on Lidarr++Deemix - A service to automatically add albums from Deemix 7 months ago:
Regarding enriching MB. Honestly, I don’t have time for that.
I’m from one of the slavic countries and there are so many missing albums, it’d take me a lifetime to contribute.
- Comment on Lidarr++Deemix - A service to automatically add albums from Deemix 7 months ago:
I haven’t had much success with the arr-scripts, whereas with the lidarr:plugins + deemix I had.
I did not test it, but It should work, since it only pulls the metadata, and is not involved in the download process at all.

But isn’t that exactly what right wingers do?

yeah, and I was educating myself on how people can get addicted to bad-smelling shit… and here we are.

I’m not interested in veering to the right
I wasn’t interested in smoking, until I lit up the first one with my friends

If you haven’t, get yourself familiar with Docker and docker compose, and then use portainer to manage all your stuff. It’s a lifesaver.
- Comment on Would it be possible to run Pi-hole, Octoprint and Home Assistant on the same RPi 3 mod. B? 7 months ago:
couple of Pis are cheaper
Are they thou? In my region the 4Bs are selling at around 60 bucks (no case, no SD)… A “couple” of them (including some for backup and HA and Octoprint) would mean at least 4 of them, totalling at 240 bucks (or 300 with SD). For that money, one could get two (or even three) more-than-capable thin clients.
- Comment on Would it be possible to run Pi-hole, Octoprint and Home Assistant on the same RPi 3 mod. B? 7 months ago:
As some others mentioned, when the DNS goes down (which pihole is) your whole network is down. With the fragility (and slowness) of the PI, it’d be more likely it will go down, sooner than later.
Considering the cost, a good alternative, imho, would be some sort of thin client, with an energy efficient CPU. So, instead of getting 2-3 PIs, better get one of these TCs, while keeping your PI as a DNS backup solution.
- Comment on Can you un-smart a smart tv? 7 months ago:
I’ve mine on a separate VLAN that has no internet access. the only thing it is allowed to do is sending and receiving UDP packets on port 14447/14449 for hyperionLED. And that’s about as smart as I allow it to be.

but yeah, setting up davx5 with my fastmail account gives me exactly what I need. I can use the google calendar app to have my FM calendar fully integrated.
