    The tweet he commented on was indeed a nice idea, but a CEO should have more foresight that the things Trump stated in it would not be true. When you look at it now, it looks like it was more or less a threat that led to a closer relationship between “tech bros” and the current administration instead of the “take down” of them.



  • OpenVPN is still a solid option and widely used today.

    Absolutely, but Wireguard is simpler to setup and comes by default and by design with a more secure default config.

    • Create keys on host and on clients
    • Generate a config
    • You now have a secure VPN Setup.

    Now look at all those options you need to tune on OpenVPN.

    even though the company behind it isnt perfect.

    But then why recommending pfSense? OPNsense is the same with a much more FOSS friendly company behind it. Yes pfSense is at the moment ok but no reason to use it over OPNsense imho.

    People should still be able to use whatever software they like without being juged by it.

    Yes. And i never judged anyone running thr software, only ppl who recommend it.

    Its better for people to at least start with something, rather than nothing

    I am not sure about it. Personally, when i get into a new topic i like to have comparisons. They show me what is actually relevant and what i should look out for. But maybe it is just me.

    I said multiple times “recommend” here, but that is actually my main problem, i would be much more ok when he simply said there is x and y also available but i use z because of 123…











  • No, that would make no sense and is obviously not what i meant.

    But you could separate the arr stack from things like pihole with a vm. For example you could pin one thread to that VM so you will not bottleneck your DNS when you are doing heavy loads on the rest of the system. This is just one example what can be done.

    Just because you do not see a benefit, does not mean there is none.

    Also, VMs are not “heavy” thanks to virtualization technology built into modern hardware, VMs are quite light on the system. Yes they still have overhead but its not like you are giving up big percentages of your potential performance, depending on the setup.
