Tail scale already has a bunch of limitations for unpaid users but it’s only an extra step to set up wireguard in a container.

Honestly, I’ve had little trouble. The Gentoo Wiki and Void Handbook have a lot of overlap with OpenRC and musl, respectively.

While the documentation could be improved, the overall experience has been quite good and very stable.

I’m not trying to be unhelpful. My advice would be to steer into the terminal. Bite the bullet. I use arch and alpine for my servers but Fedora would be fine (but SELinux can be a pain with bund mounts)

Probably just go with Fedora with btrfs for snaps. It has lots of support and is a common choice for servers

Wireguard (or tailscale) would be best here.

Well that’s great, airvpn has worked well for me in my torrent docker container and I recommend it for that purpose.

For privacy I recommend arkenfox

I believe airvpn has port forward.

Set up wireguard in a docker container and then forward the port to wireguard, the default container on docker hub is fairly straightforward and you can always ask me for help if you need :).

However, If you are using ipv4, you need to make sure that you’re not behind a CG-NAT (If you think you might be, call your ISP and tell them you have security cameras that need to get out or something like that).

You could also try tailscale which is built using wireguard with nat-busting features and a bit easier to configure (I dont personally use it as wireguard is sufficient for me).

After that Caddy + DNSMasq will simply allow you to map different URLs to IP addresses

• dnsmasq
  • will let you map, E.g. my_computer -> 192.168.1.64
• Caddy (Or nginx, but caddy is simpler)
  • will let you map to ports so e.g.:
    • with DNS (DNSMasq as above)
      • http://dokuwiki.my_computer -> http://my_computer:8080
    • Without DNS
      • http://dokuwiki.192.168.1.64 -> http://192.168.1.64:8080/

Caddy and DNSmasq are superfluous, if you’ve got a good memory or bookmarks, you don’t really need them.

VPN back into home is a lot more important. You definitely do not want to be forwarding ports to services you are running, because if you don’t know what you’re doing this could pose a network security risk.

Use the VPN as the entry point, as it’s secure. I also recommend running the VPN in a docker / podman container on an old laptop dedicated just to that, simply to keep it as isolated as you can.

Down the line you could also look into VLan If your router supports that.

I personally would not bother with SSL If you’re just going to be providing access to trusted users who already have access to your home network.

If you are looking to host things, just pay for a digital droplet for $7 a month, It’s much simpler, You still get to configure everything but you don’t expose your network to a security risk.

If you’re just going to VPN in to your home network, I’ve found caddy to be the simplest.

I think this combined with the solution provided in this comment Will be the most robust approach and solve all your problems.

That’s what I would do

Mobile offline sync is a lost cause. The dev environment, even on Android, is so hostile you’ll never get a good experience.

Joplin comes close, but it’s still extremely unreliable and I’ve had many dropped notes. It also takes hours to sync a large corpus.

I wrote my own web app using Axum and flask that I use. Check out dokuwiki as well.

Oh good to know.

It used to be awful but I’m glad to hear it’s improving.

Maybe snapdrop?

When I was obsd I did FTP and rsync for everything. Syncthing had dinner performance issues for me.

Maybe Seafile but I had a bad time with that.

From memory MTP is pretty flaky and quite slow.

ADB push is pretty good but at that stage rsync is just as easy.

Put SSH in the phone and you can do it all from the computer too.

To be fair, wireguard is pretty painless.

Absolutely that’s what the internet was made for!

But family photos keep a bit more secure, Particularly if it’s syncing directly from your phone, I take a lot of explicit photos of my wife, but also code that I’m writing on my computer, or the kids playing, etc.

• Starting Strength book
  • The program is simplistic, dont follow all the advice in the book but the guidance around compound lifts is good
  • Follow that basic program for a month or two (Or ice cream fitness), depending on your level of fitness you might like PHAT or PHUL.
• Couch to 5k
  • Once you Can run a 10K It’s simply a matter of determining what your goals are

On the software side:

• Fitnotes
  • Although it’s proprietary, it’s free and that allows you to export your data into SQLite. Any llm (even a local one) will cobble together a dashboard with plotly/jupyter or even PyQt without much pain
• Waistline Is an application available on F-Droid, This is open source. So, send the developer a donation if you like it.

Well yeah, self-instruct is how a lot of these models are trained. Bootstrap training data off a larger model and fine-tune a pre-existing model of that.

It’s similar but different.

Dokuwiki + wireguard would be different but satisfy since if those needs, try it out of you have time.

Quartz or mkdocs
