@Rose@lemmy.zip Why the downvote? I’ve had nothing but nice things to say about Dustborn, I’m here helping you bring activity to your post…

Estimated 6,000 copies sold.

Firefox lets you set default site settings, make the default site setting disable autoplay audio and video.

For sites where you know you trust the video, you can do a per site permission in the URL bar saying autoplay is allowed for like YouTube

Never go to a place because it’s popular, if you wouldn’t go there if nobody else was there, you probably won’t enjoy it when other people are there.

If you have a deep and strong interest in a place or a thing, it’s great to visit no matter what. Low season might be better

Don’t eat a entire box of thin mints.

Inform their family, depending on how nice the local police are - ask them to do a wellness check.

For your personal mental well being, I would recommend going low contact with a suicidal person, they will drag you into their drama and pull you down.

I have seen the tuta news… That really did annoy me, I emailed them every time I get one of them asking them not to do it anymore. It should just be a regular email. Not some special fake email.

I don’t see any ads

Even if it only works sometimes, there is still a use case with a benefit. I.e. speed throttling on tethering

And yet even with that pitfall there is a valid benefit of using a shared VPN over the hotspot. Specifically making your data look like it’s coming from the phone so it isn’t throttled by the carrier as tethered data. The failure scenario being the data goes slower.

I recognize the problems you list as valid, and yet there is still a beneficial tradeoff decision to be made.

No need to insult me, I both read the GitHub and understand how VPNs work.

There is no point in using a vpn if you don’t care if your data leaks outside the tunnel.

Sharing VPN from a phone over a hotspot, means all of that traffic looks like it’s coming from the phone.

True, but don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

Sharing VPN from a phone over a hotspot, means all of that traffic looks like it’s coming from the phone. Admittedly if the VPN dies, the routing will bypass it. But the benefit here is immense, if you use visible, you have unlimited data from the phone, but very slow data on tethering. Sharing the VPN from the phone, gives you unlimited data on the hotspot. That’s a pretty good trade-off

I use a calyxos device to share VPN, as of a few months ago.

Hotspot & Tethering

• Allow clients to use VPNs

https://calyxos.org/features/list/#network

Perhaps your confusing GOS? If not, can you cite the design decision to disallow this feature? I’d be curious to learn about it

If openwrt can do it, gli-net can do it

Honestly, for your use case, you should just get a older cell phone. Put lineage OS on it, or calyxos… share your VPN over hotspot, these are the only two ROMs that I’m aware of that allow you to do that. This has the benefit that the VPN traffic looks just like for traffic from the phone, and you don’t have to do any gymnastics to modify the TTL, or the operating system signature of the traffic.

Boom, travel router. Very portable, has a built-in battery etc etc etc etc etc

I like GLI-net, they are great, they have great hardware. If you want to buy it I endorse it. If you’re paranoid flash your own firmware. If you use an end-to-end VPN from your device it doesn’t matter what your mobile router uses. However the killer feature here, I think is better supplied by an older phone running the ROMs I mentioned above. It’s just more portable. And you have a backup phone when you’re traveling

The side with the power button is now the top. There is no ports or io on the bottom.

The general topic was about self-hosting. IPv6 is very useful for self-hosting,… connections.

I’ll admit there is a critical mass problem with torrenting clients, but if you’re trying to set up a wire guard tunnel with your friends, IPv6 is a absolute banger

In most environments ipv6 bypasses cgnat (because, why would you need a nat with ipv6).

I didn’t mind their crazy half-baked idea communities, but they never committed to the bit. Plus with their whole federation issue, when people did comment there to try to make something happen, there was no response…

Immediately and constantly apply updates.

Very, very, rarely have I ever had to roll anything back. Newpipe I rolled back once.

• MacOS - Minor changes Number.minor I update ASAP, Major Changes Number+1.1… I wait until Number+1.3… Apple has a history of breaking the ecosystem on major changes, give them a month or two to sort it out
