That’s really helpful, thank you. I’ve ordered an AX23 which will arrive tomorrow. I’ll try to figure it out in the next few days and report back.

Thank you! I’ll evaluate and report back.

And openwrt is capable enough?
Yeah it’s insane right? Every address is reachable when I open a port range. And it’s like there are ~ 10 predefined services (HTTP/S, SMTP, …) and the category “All other ports” where also 22 is part of. So I really have the choice to either keep everything shut or leave everything wide open.
I think I can’t use my own modem but I’ll have to double check with my ISP. But yes the Wi-Fi is also provided by that router and it’s also quite crappy.

Thank you! Do you have an example for such a firewall device? Could something like the TP-Link Archer AX55 in IPv6 “pass-through” mode do the job? Or would you go for a standalone firewall? My budget is around a hundret bucks.

IIRC there is a plugin for Caddy that can do what you are looking for.

Your comment reminds me of that great tune by Pink Floyd.
- Comment on Microsoft is enabling BitLocker device encryption by default on Windows 11 3 months ago:
I think this is a step in the right direction. Everyone can lose a portable device or it can get stolen, so protecting the potentially sensitive data is important.
I think what people are complaining about is not full-disk encryption itself, but the fact that people are not used to being responsible for their cryptographic keys.
I think we should educate people regarding this responsibility. We did it with regular keys we use to unlock our homes.

No radio expert here, but would’nt this at some point interfere with the transmissions if deployed at a large scale?
- Comment on what will be my next server operating system (Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS), your experience and opinion 7 months ago:
Why exactly are the IBM dependencies a problem for you?
I guess I just like independent, community-driven distros, since there’s less space for financially motivated enshittification. Just shortly after I decided to go with FCOS, RedHat / IBM decided to close down CentOS, for example.
I can’t really find good resources on how FCOS is working and what are the benefits. Is it updating the system/kernel automatically as well as the containers? And what are generally, in your opinion, the advantages of FCOS?
The system & kernel yes. The whole system is basically a read-only system “image” for which the devs make sure all the packages play nicely together. Packages are not updated individually, but whole system “image” are released periodically, which the system then downloads automatically and reboots (you decide when it actually reboots through the config). If anything goes wrong, the system is rolled back to the previous “image”.
When you go with podman, there’s a systemd service you can enable which will update the containers (i.e. pull the specified image tag). I’m not aware of a similar mechanism for Docker, which is why I use watchtower for that which has been working smoothly so far.
- Comment on what will be my next server operating system (Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS), your experience and opinion 7 months ago:
I use Fedora CoreOS on my homeserver and a bunch of VPSs. Migrated the homeserver just recently, but I’ve migrated the first VPSs a bit more than a year ago. So far, I had no problems with it. There’s a low-traffic mailing list where the devs inform about security issues and breaking changes to the whole container stack.
I used debian before for some years, but at some point became tired of manually updating the system (which is probably one of the biggest benefit of FCOS). It takes, however, quite some time to put your first Ignition config together, and debugging is tedious as you have to redeploy to see if a bug / error is now gone (I’ve used a VM for that).
I use podman on some, Docker on other servers (you can’t use both at the same time). Both have been working well so far.
I’d recommend it, but would also recommend taking a look at Flatcar Linux which is more or less the same without the IBM dependency (which makes my stomach hurt sometimes).
