Had no idea that existed, I wonder what the security is like

Yeah, that’s why I use TailScale at all. I host services for my close friends to enjoy

“Skateboard style” as in intended to be worn while doing activities that will rough up the material? If so, I’d do the opposite of BIFL and buy the cheapest stuff I could…like a 12 pack of Walmart-tier stuff

The biggest downside, as I understand it, is that it’s difficult to convince others to use your tailnet

That’s a really hard problem to solve. But my advice, and what was working for me last time I tried, was using the Pi-hole as an exit node and forcing as much traffic through it as possible. The only downside to this is that your Pi-hole dashboard will be less interesting because your devices will show as the Pi-hole itself. If you’re already doing that, then my only guess is getting obsessive about domain blocking until it stops, and even that will have its limits.

I second this. And the transition was made easy due to anti-consumer practices. Plus, you can take your media on-the-go for free

They have the money to do it. And historically, the CIA has done similar things globally for decades

Then I’d suggest SearXNG. I use public instances because no one has made a way for me to natively host it myself, but I recommend it regardless

Yep

Some day surely Windows and Mac will get something similar to SearXNG, then you won’t have to worry about this stuff

RethinkDNS is a great option unless you already have something in place that you want to use as well.

For example, I have a pi-hole and a server that I’d like to use 24/7. There’s a few ways to do it, but I’m an idiot and need a simple, hard-to-ruin method. So I use the pi-hole as an exit node with TailScale

Yes, I am. To be more specific about the custom ROM, I’m trying to find a direct link to a trustworthy source…because I’ve looked and couldn’t find one myself

Just tried, but I get an “unable to connect” error on all of my devices

Ah, excuse my ignorance please. I only know about Graphene and Lineage

The fingerprint sensor doesn’t work most of the time, the light sensor thinks its in my pocket when its in my hand (and thinks that its in my hand when its in my pocket), the battery started draining rapidly within a year of purchase, and much more. Is there an Oxygen release for my phone? When I checked about a year ago, all I could find was an unofficial Lineage release that seemed sketchy

You use Chromium, don’t act elitist

Can you give an example? This is the first criticism of Proton I’ve heard

Pi-hole and Simplewall, everything except my phone is running Ethernet

My plan is 500 gigs down, but my computer (Ethernet wired to the server) gets transferal speeds of about 4 megs down. Super cool

Same here. I’ve stripped my browser of most extensions, uBO with a VERY strict Pi-hole subnet router works for me
