Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

Not that I use them anymore anyway, cancelling my old account, but name and shame any companies who conveniently can't support their free base. Also - it's VNC. It's a protocol. There's a dozen free clients out there.

I use anydesk for a single pc2pc connection and lately it's been popping up with a 60 second ad saying like "we're glad you are using it and you should start paying for a business license." I use it about once every couple weeks. Like I'm not paying for your shit for a few times a month use.

I had that happen for a while too, somehow it thought I was using it too much or something that wasn't for personal use. You can request a whitelist if you are so inclined. The process was pretty simple: https://anydesk.com/en/whitelist-request

After I did that I haven't seen that pop back up in over a year.
