I always wondered the same about ZeroTier. If the controller is under foreign control, isn’t the whole network compromised?

gl.iNet definitely shows your expected VPN speed (OpenVPN and Wireguard) on their product pages, which is great.
Still, if you need gigabit speeds, those devices usually can not provide that.

Define great. Tailscale doesn’t even run Wireguard on the kernel level, but in user space.

You’re not going to have fun when using OpenVPN. Even Wireguard will be a stretch. The Raspberry Pi does not have any hardware cryptography acceleration built-in and the raw compute power is very limited.

EDIT: Maybe you’re going to have acceptable speeds after all? Take a look at the Raspberry results here: https://github.com/cyyself/wg-bench?tab=readme-ov-file#test-results

There are often some “fair use” paragraphs in their respective ToS that they could enforce and either terminate your account or request you to uprade to a higher tier product. Usually (not always) VPSs are overprovisioned, so when people start to fully utilize their rented machines theit whole business model goes belly-up.

Be careful with compute intensive tasks. Some providers don’t like when you actually utilize your rented hosts.

Acquired by whom?

Unfortunately yes, and I hate them with everything I’ve got.

Which exact model of 7600 XT do you have?

Default settings or what are we supposed to compare here?

I’ve been avoiding it ever since the Balena moniker change.

Why the switch?

This isn’t related to Cloudflare’s Privacy Pass, is it?

I’ve thought about this myself during a phase of less that then perfect health. I think a somewhat practical solution is to have all passwords and documentation on how to use them/access the services that require them in a (online) password manager (so it stays current). Then have an USB stick with encrypted login credentials and OTP backup deposited at a notary and hand out the decryption key to a few trustworthy friends and family members.
This way nobody can access your stuff and the notary can make sure to hand out the USB stick only to the one person you specified in your will. The other friends and family members are there as backup in case your “special” friend has lost the decryption key in the meantime.

The alternative to an online pw manager would be a local one that you synchronize to your friends and only the notary has the key to unlock the database, which they only hand out according to your will.

I’d love to hear about other solutions though. Maybe there’s a better option.

P.S.: There are tools to have more redundancy on USB sticks and so on, so that bit flips/degradation can be accommodated. Multiple redundant data carriers are an option as well.

Have you correctly set your apt preferences? I didn’t have any issues anymore since I’ve done that.

Why would you need cloudflared? Can’t you justbset DoH/DoT servers as a backend in Pi-Hole?

Even DNSCrypt, but I think nobody really uses that.

I wish Flock was still around.

The certificate for hostiko.com.ua expired on 2/4/2025

That’s new and certainly not a good look for an online service provider.

Check your time and date.
