Second Forgejo. Easiest deploy I've ever done.

I forbid ye maidens all,

Who let fly your lovely hair.

To go down to Carterhaugh for young Tam Lin is there.

Janet's tied a girdle green,

Above her knee and not below,

And she's away to Carterhaugh,

Just as fast as she can go,

She's come for the roses growing wild,

She pulls a single one,

When a wild young man appears and cries "Ohh... Lady let alone!"

"How dare you pull my roses out?"

"How dare you break my tree?"

"How dare you run in these green woods,"

"Without asking leave of me?"

Says Janet fair "This wood's mine own,"

"My father gave it me,"

"And I shall pluck myself a rose,"

"Without asking leave of thee."

Bold as brass he takes her hand,

Color rises to her skin,

She looks the young man in the eye,

And knows him now for young Tam Lin.

I forbid ye maidens all,

Who let fly your lovely hair,

To go down to Carterhaugh, for young Tam Lin is there.

Please don't promote Red Cap politics disguised as software.

systemd’s networkd has a built-in DHCP server; check option ‘DHCPServer’ and section ‘DHCPServer’ for that (same man page as above).

Is that true in Debian? If so, cool. I did not know that.

I'm happy to answer specific questions as you dig into it. :) Good luck.

This is extremely possible and I have done a lot of stuff like it (I set up my first home built Linux firewall over 20 years ago). You do want to get some kind of multiport network card (or multiple network cards... usb -> ethernet adapters can do OK filling in in a pinch). It also gives you a lot of power if you want to do specific stuff with specific connections (sub netting, isolation of specific hosts, etc).

There's a lot of ways to do it, but the one I'm most familiar with is just to use IP tables.

The very first thing you want to do is open up /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward and change the 0 to a 1 to turn on network forwarding.

You want to install bridge-utils and isc-dhcp-server (or some other DHCP server). Google or get help from an LLM to configure them, because they're powerful and there's a lot of configs. Ditto if you want it to handle DNS. But basically what you're going to do (why you need bridge-utils) is you're going to set up a virtual bridge interface and then add all the various NICs you want on your LAN side into it (or you can make multiple bridges or whatever... lots of possibilities).

Your basic iptables rule is going to be something like

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o enp1s0 -j MASQUERADE, but again there's lots of possible IP tables rules so read up on those.

At a guess, the Venn diagram of people who would happily regularly pay for apps and people who have heard of flathub is teeny tiny.

Qubes or gtfo (troll answer, don't listen to me)

That reputation has entirely been created by the media frenzy over busting the worst kinds of criminals.

Oh they're all using the same technology? Yeah of course they are, because that's the technology that works the best. It has so many fucking use cases.

Funny that the media frenzy is hitting a fever pitch just as we most desperately need powerful tools for opposing fascism. Almost like that's not really a coincidence.

What we're seeing in US states with these kinds of stupid laws, is massive increases in traffic to porn sites based overseas that have no obligation to follow the age verification law, and the state has no mechanism to compel them to do so. So all they're doing is hurting American companies AND increasing the probability that residents of their state (including teens) will visit sketchy ass sites with sketchy ass content, sketchy ass viruses and the ability to chat with sketchy ass creepballs.

We've also seen massive increases in VPN and Tor usage, as well as a massive increase in searches for information about VPN technology. I actually consider that a huge positive. Knock yourselves out Republicans.

Of course, these laws aren't about effectively accomplishing anything other than virtue signaling to Christofacists. At least in the US. IDK what's going on in the UK.

Yiff.

Many of my self hosted solutions are just DIY cludges. I was talking to a friend of a friend on Saturday about media streaming and he told me all about his Jellyfin setup and then asked about mine and I was just like "I just store MP4s on an SSHFS drive and play them in VLC on my TV (which runs Linux Mint)." When the survey asked about the various types of software I was like "No... I don't use anything like that... wait... yes I do! I just don't use a prebuilt solution!"
