I don’t think the networking part is part that needs solving. Modern AP/routers are pretty easy to configure and setup securely. Dunno - I’m definitely not in the target audience for what you’re doing though.

In what way do you think this article supports anything about the claim that “ssh can be broken into fairly easily”. It’s at best an argument for not using passwords with SSH, and at least for using very good passwords.

Which problem(s) are you trying to solve? The networking issue of firewalls and port forwarding? The admin tasks of installing and configuring applications? The task nobody does of maintaining software and keeping it up-to-date?

What’s a nixos script?

Raspberry Pi is not a server. That people use it as one does not mean it’s fit for purpose.

SSH, especially password only ssh, can be broken into fairly easily.

WTF are you smoking? The tailscale propaganda is really getting crazy these days.

ssh is one of the most secure servers you can run. The tailscale propaganda is crazy in this community.

This community is like 90% tailscale shills.

I self-host my own damn mail server and I wouldn’t want to support infrastructure for a business I was starting…

If your core business is not “making sure wordpress is running” then outsource it to others to worry about. You’ll have enough on your plate.

One thing to address is that if you’re sending lots of emails you start to raise concerns about being a spammer. Especially if somebody forgets they signed up for your newsletter and clicks “report as spam”. It can be a quick way to get blocked from your mail provider since they can themselves become blocked and they’d rather ban you than deal with that hassle. Just be sure whoever you’re sending mail through is okay with you sending “bulk” mail.

That phrase has practically lost all meaning.

It’s listed as a privacy option on my pixel. It may be different for others but you could try searching the settings for “vpn” or “privacy.”

All SSDs will die too. Not saying you meant or implied that they wouldn’t, just clarifying for anyone who may not be aware. You’re spot on with “plan for failure”.

Dunnon about iOS but some Android phones have a “network protection” config which uses a Google VPN, so it tends to block viewing the local network.

I’ve been waiting for “Create common.json” and “refactor collection store”!

You’ll be hard pressed to match Zoom. Audio and video quality are very good. There’s even a mode for musicians, so it won’t try to filter the instrument out as ‘noise’.

I took lessons over zoom for years, and it works fine. Is not a recording session, you don’t need to play together.

If you think about what the “S” in “NAS” is you’ll realize why they prioritize storage…

You want a general purpose server.

Only? “Viewing emails in a web browser” is the entire point of roundcube. It’s trivial to send out millions of “specially created emails” looking for a victim.

No worse than protecting your ssh key. Just keep it somewhere safe.
