@fufroom I use a hybrid setup:
**Tailscale** for my **private** mesh. It connects my phone (Pixel 9 Pro, thanks santa ^w^) to my servers so I can access files or SSH in from anywhere without opening ports. It's magic for NAT traversal.
Consider **Wireguard** if you're more technically inclined, but Tailscale is a great starting point and what I personally use right now.
**Cloudflare Tunnels** for **public** services (like my website). It hides my home IP address from the open internet.@h333d šš

I logged into my dashboard tonight via the tunnel. No banner ads. No
"suggested content" algorithms designed to doomscroll me. No tracking pixels firing off to a data broker in Utah, lol.
Just my tools, sitting there, waiting.
We really forgot what the internet feels like when it isn't trying to extract value from us every single second. Itās quiet here. I like it.

#digital #minimalism #selfhosted #SmallWeb #AdFree@h333d You get used to it. What's become weird (for me) is using friends devices and getting blasted with all that crap and barely being able to do anything š

@jimmyb @h333d I use RSS to track a couple of YouTube channels. I realized yesterday that I had an idiotic habit of opening the video link in the official YouTube app, thus subjecting me to the ad/tracking sludge. It is actually like 2 taps less for me to just play the video in the RSS app, and no ads get inserted. The only reason I can think is that I wanted to be counted when I like or dislike a video. Like that really matters

#digital #minimalism #selfhosted #SmallWeb #AdFree@h333d same here. It's wonderful. My life is back to being mine. I've set a 15 minute timer on Facebook to make sure I only do the essentials there. Moron baiting seems fun at first, but you can't educate them and in reality you just end up being a troll.

Lāesperienza di Greenham Common. La dirompente pratica dellāantimilitarismo femminista
@anarchia
Il 5 settembre 1981, lāarrivo di una piccola delegazione di donne gallesi ai cancelli della base aerea della Royal Air Force (RAF) a Greenham Common non sembrava destinato a riscrivere la storia dei movimenti sociali del ventesimo secolo. Eppure, quella...
