  Link?

  Sub fail2ban for wazuh. It does the same but so much more, and does everything with 0 config after fresh install.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What else should I do for my home server security?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Wazuh and TOTP

  The situation is so concerning, he notes, because there isn’t much that people can do to protect themselves from zero-click ad attacks other than blocking ads as thoroughly as possible on all websites and platforms—a fact that intelligence agencies like the NSA and CIA seem to know all too well.

  Or disable JavaScript

  I’ve spent hours trying to satisfy Jellyfin and it never fully works correctly.

  So, I don’t.

  Charging corporations is not a violation of OSI’s definition.

  Their definition is free as in speech, not as in beer.

  Maybe artists are just less greedy than the average tech bro?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your weirdest or most unique self-hosted use case and solution?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because your phone gives it that info

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How can self-hosted software make money without hurting the ecosystem?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Charging corporation. Making it free for personal use and nonprofits

  It has access to your phones fingerprint, which is then linked to all your other activity.

  It doesn’t need access to the phone data. All it needs is the fingerprint.

  The phone number part significantly degrades your privacy and security

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your weirdest or most unique self-hosted use case and solution?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No phone number needed. Can run directly on a non-phone server.

  Also more secure and trustworthy because it’s open source.

  If you manage to make an account on WhatsApp and move it to waydroid, they’ll ban you.

  Meta’s game is (meta)data collection and selling your data. They’ll delete your account if they can’t get all your phone’s data (eg if it’s an emulator then they can’t uniquely identify you)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your weirdest or most unique self-hosted use case and solution?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t the bridge require you to run whatsapp on a phone anyway?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your weirdest or most unique self-hosted use case and solution?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  God that sucks.

  Why not use SimpleX or Wire or Matrix?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you monitor your servers?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I go the easy route with munin and wazuh. It comes with a ton of stuff preconfigured

  Does it work for flock cameras?

  While I love this idea, I’m not sure that covering your car with the word “Donut” will keep the cops away
