Not selling me on those downsides. Sounds like a much better world without those.
Try selling this idea to the rest of your country’s population.
- Comment on What are good option for self hosting home security camera? 2 weeks ago:
I will agree that my advice is bad.
I myself run all my services over wireguard. But I run ssh natively though but with extra hardening (fail2ban/sshkey/no default port/max retries, etc). Plus my IP changes every 24 hours. However, I did learn how to setup online services and this can be a stepping stone.
If one is experimenting, exposing the port is fine (temporarily). But if someone is running a service 24/7 over the internet, and the person does not have any cyber security acumen, wireguard is the clear winner.

If you tell me what kind of hardware you have, i can direct you to the correct resource. I have done it for my TPLink router, which has support for noip.com. OpenWRT/OPNSense has dedicated plugins or it’s baked-in.

For external access though, I don’t have a domain name registered, and I’d rather not have one. I’d be happy to access this just using my external IP address. But I don’t know how “static” the IP address from my ISP is. (My router gets it via DHCP, but I don’t know how long those leases are, or if it re-uses the same IP when renewing.)
Some routers have integration with dyndns or noip. You can get a free (disposable) domain. If you do the correct port forwarding to your camera’s application server, you can access your camera from outside. However, ensure you are using HTTPS, a strong password, and the server on a non-standard port.
Pro-tip = Run wireguard to access everything securely.

I was checking the feature list of Technitium and it’s a bit … overwhelming. I may shift to it one day but I need to study it first :P
Pihole is fine for the time being.

I have seen this project popping up quite a bit. It seems like this natively supports a lot of encrypted DNS protocols, unlike Pihole. Looks very nice.

dnsproxy seems really good.
I’m checking their docker release (github.com/axeleroy/dnsproxy-docker/)

I’ll assume you’re looking for a self hosted alternative
I self-host the
cloudflaredwhich is used by my Pihole as the upstream provider.I shall check out Hickory DNS. Thanks!
- Comment on How do you get a certificate for an internal domain? 3 weeks ago:
If it’s a custom TLD (.lan, etc.) then you need to do self-signed
Can you share some resources on this?

We’ll need a way to confirm that your government ID and PII is actually deleted on Age Verifier’s platform. IMO this is the hardest part to ensure in a transparent manner.

While that comment was made as a meme, and I certainly thought of the Steam Deck, what I was initially thinking was about a super efficient SteamBoy of sorts.
An ARM-based, powerful, power-efficient, and pocketable handheld to play select retro games from Steam. And of course it will support emulation. It’s just wishful thinking at this point but would be great. I think a smaller handheld would pair nicely with the Steamdeck.
