But you can use iPads and iPhones without a SIM card? I don't think it's trivial at all.

To be honest, I would advise against opening your home network like that at all. A VPN would be much safer. If you use something like Tailscale it would be much easier as well and doesn't need opening any ports at all.

Well at least I'm not here perpetuating the delusion that desktop Linux desktop is as user-friendly and productive for every use-case as Windows and macOS are.

Wait, are you saying Windows and macOS are user-friendly and productive for every use-case? That's hilarious!

Showing ads is not the same as selling data, but it's also not really what google is doing. Google spies on you and uses that data to sell access to you to any company that wants to exploit you. They've also been known to give (not sell) data on you to law enforcement based solely on your location data or things you looked up.

Point one: I'm pretty certain they already track that. With or without account. And you're on the internet, without a VPN there is no privacy. You are also able to remove that history any moment you want.

I mean sure, they could try combining the user agents my unofficial apps provide with my carrier's NAT IP to build a profile on me, but it would be highly inefficient and imprecise to the point where it's almost useless for them. With a Youtube Premium account they have an identity tied to an email address, full name, and payment info that they can relate every click in their apps and websites to. If I also use their other services with the same account, I would be paying them to spy on everything I do and sell my data, so other companies can sell me crap.

I recommend going with regular backups and maybe something like docker. Then you just have to restore the config volumes and all the accounts should still be there.

I don't have a Framework laptop, but I'd assume that the storage expansion modules are seen as regular USB external drives. So if your BIOS has USB as the first priority boot option, it would boot whatever system is installed on there when it is plugged in, and boot the system on the internal storage when it isn't. I have a setup like that on my laptop with a WindowsToGo installation on an external SSD.

Why do you use SMB instead of just connecting to the different jellyfin servers directly via VPN?

[–] uzay@infosec.pub 1 points 10 months ago

I tried that, but neither option seems to work. At least not in Wayland programs, like Firefox. It works in Chromium because iirc that runs in Xwayland. That doesn't solve my issue with Wayland though.

For sure. I just meant that it's just putting in a command and waiting for a bit, so I could understand doing it on a whim more than if it was a full reinstall. Doesn't make any sense but it's also not a big deal.

As an enduser my only noticeable issue with Wayland is that Auto-Type with KeepassXC doesn't work.

Tbf I think it's very easy to rebase a Fedora Silverblue install to ublue or vice versa
