From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

thanks for both answers. the second option, one i cant afford.

i did some research, the first the answer is partilly correct ig. for example syncthing offers password protection (https://docs.syncthing.net/users/untrusted.html) and for the bin, it provides client side encryption (https://github.com/HemmeligOrg/Hemmelig.app?tab=readme-ov-file#features) which will protect me even over plain http connection ig. please correct me if im wrong

these are product specific feature, so generally, as you said, no is the answer ig. i wish nextcloud offers something like. thanks again

I just saw your second diagram. If all you’re worried about is serveo being able to see, you could do all your http server stuff with https and require ECH on the client side and you’d be okay?

I’m not 100% that would work perfectly, especially if DNS is involved, but I don’t think serveo messes with DNS.
