There was also a large amount of money thrown at developing the vaccine because of the virus' significant economic impacts.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'll look into transitioning to Aegis. Regarding backups, you are able to have another device in case you lose your phone (I also have Authy on my laptop in case that does happen), but the data breach you mentioned said that may have been a weak point. Either way, I'm going to explore Aegis now.

If your issue is with the authenticator, then why not just switch authenticators? I've been quite happy with Authy over the years.

Sure, self hosting can be more secure, but if it's not on your own hardware, I don't see how moving to render is better. You're still using a third party to host your most sensitive information.

Yes, I just started with it and had to look this up. You can create different users too. To imprort subs you'll have to do a Google Takeout export, then import that CSV under Settings>Data Settings.

The FAQ has a nice step by step guide.

I could see it being tedious if you had to manually enter long, random string passwords regularly. Though I suppose you could change them to something easier to type. Ctrl+shift+L (bitwarden extension autofill shortcut) is just so much more convenient.

Also a happy customer of Nebula here. I've come across some pretty interesting content on there.

Re: VPN and Wireguard, I was looking into doing the same on my unifi router, but came across Twingate (through a networkchuck video) and decided to try that instead, being a bit of a networking noob. It's almost too easy...you can share individual resources or whole networks with user and device control over each. I think you get 5 users and 10 resources in the free plan. I'd recommend looking into it.

I had been pondering Nabucasa for external Home Assistant access but am very happy I found this. Now my wife can have remote access to HA and Plex and I can access the whole network remotely.

I found tteck's Proxmox Helper Scripts great for getting my proxmox experience off the ground. I'm similar to you with just recently getting started while having limited network experience.

I also just set up Twingate for external access following a networkchuck video and love how easy it was. I was just going to do a vpn on my unifi router but this was a more streamlined solution.

As far as services, I've got:

  • Plex
  • Home Assistant (a huge but fantastic rabbit hole)
  • pihole
  • A docker LXC running Portainer, a transmission+OpenVPN container, SearXNG, and Twingate
  • Trilium (notes app similar to Evernote or OneNote)
  • Nextcloud (kind of frustrated with this one, mobile auto-upload doesn't want to ever work properly)
  • BlueIris NVR
  • Heimdall dashboard

I don't watch enough TV to justify setting up the *arr services and prefer to find my own Linux ISOs if I'm interested in a particular one. Otherwise I'm quite happy with my setup, all running on an old desktop PC.

I was actually quite interested in something like this in high school in the late 2000s. There were a few DIY EVs that existed that were just ICE vehicles with anything ICE taken out, an electric motor put in the engine's place, and several 12v batteries connected in series.

Of course, they're pretty crude compared to those we have today, but it's very possible.

I've got two Ubiquiti APs and the standard Dream Machine and am quite happy with them too. Sure, they're not the cheapest option, but they're quite feature rich and expansion within the ecosystem is very easy.

I used Tteck's Proxmox Helper Scripts to get haos up on my proxmox setup. They make installation very easy.
