Why does Cloudflare get a pass on the “if it’s free, you’re the product” mantra of the self-hosting community? Honest question. They seem to provide a lot for free, so…

Yep, you just said the same thing with more words 😁
I’ve been looking around for notes apps with similar criteria with the addition of a portable format (markdown prferably) and, ideally, the ability to add images directly from the camera. I landed on GitJournal and backed it with a self-hosted Forgejo server, but this can be any git server. This has the benefit of requiring an ssh key pair for access
If you have NextCloud, you can try Deck. I moved off from NextCloud and Deck was, oddly enough, one of the harder apps to replace. I ended up with Vikunja. They have an android app in alpha but it feels pretty polished
I use Obtainium for all apps with no f-droid presence, I just forget which ones sometimes. It’s the browser extension that makes this one great. I wanted something pretty easy after losing the convenience of Authy desktop
When Authy dropped their desktop app, I picked this up for 2FA: https://2fas.com/
EDIT: oops, just realized this isn’t listed on f-droid…
I always feel like I should throw a turtle shell at the idiot driving in front of me
They want you to foot the electric bill for the LLM processing, they’re still going to collect your data. Double-win for MS!
I treat it like a junior dev, it gets the gist but may make mistakes and I work it into something usable.
I also like it to save keystrokes, like when I’m building an object, it knows the structure of that object, so it ends up being tab/enter/tab/enter/… Same process for creating converters between types.
I don’t expect much from it, but it does save time and keystrokes
I did, best move ever
Barring any Traefik tricks that allows me to accomplish what I’m after, I was thinking of going with your “third” option of just letting it use Cloudflare for everything but, I had to check with the experts first before just doing it.
I have some apps that complain or, in one case, flat out doesn’t work if the cert is invalid. I’ve been working around it (sort of) but it would be nice to have it set up “correctly” for once. If routing all traffic through Cloudflare is the answer, so be it ¯_(ツ)_/¯
If I use the Cloudflare origin server certs, the browser shows insecure and the message is “certificate not trusted” which is the same message as self-signed, if I’m not mistaken. I’m not sure what other details are relevant as I’m still new-ish to the networking portion of this home server thing. I’m happy to answer any questions if you suspect something.
I’m not using self-signed anymore, I’m getting them from Cloudflare via DNS challenge
Candied Windows
Also built in TOTP / 2fa is pretty great.
I can’t wrap my head around how this is a good idea. Isn’t the idea of mfa to protect against password theft? If your second factor is stored with your password, how does that help anything? Honest question, I see this everywhere but can’t figure out why it’s acceptable with security-minded folks
I needed something dead-simple to keep homelab documentation. If it’s not simple, I probably wouldn’t keep up with changes. I landed on An Otter Wiki https://github.com/redimp/otterwiki
That makes sense, except Google kinda does the same thing. Everything they have is technically just a “free tier” of the Google One subscription, right? I guess I’m saying that “free tier of paid product” doesn’t automatically qualify a company as trustworthy for me. Is there something else that sets Cloudflare apart?
