I believe solokeys are open source. I use a solo v1 for sudo, ssh, and two factor websites. They either went out of business or are basically defunct as I understand it, but you can pick them up on crowd supply. I wouldn’t get the v2, supposedly they had problems and that’s why they shut down. You likely won’t see updates, but they do function for what you’re looking for. There are some that are shaped like a small thumb drive and some that sit almost flush with a USB port. Some have nfc, which is useful for phones. Buy at least 2 though, and register both for everything, because you don’t want to lock yourself out of something.

I don’t disagree. My problem is not with their choice of monetizing sync. My problem is with their choice to package a web app for Android and desktop, provide that same web app for self hosting, but not allow you to store the data in the web app. In the discussions on GitHub they claim it’s just something they can’t tackle right now, or whatever. No. It’s functionality that was specifically stripped because that’s how every other self hosted web app works and the local storage framework they use is obviously bolted on and not well supported by browsers. In other words, they’re manufacturing problems to sell you a solution. And again, that’s their decision to make. It just doesn’t seem like they make good decisions, and we’re talking about an app you put a lot of work and data into.

I do too. My point is there’s already a web app you can self host, but you can’t store your data on your server. The web app uses the local file access framework, which is just dumb. There’s no reason for this except to be able to monetize sync, and that’s also dumb because as you said, sync thing works fine. But they’re making a bad choice to explicitly remove functionality, and that doesn’t make me feel confident about the future of the project.

Unless you need specific functionality that silver bullet doesn’t provide, i’d start there. It’s very similar to logseq, but doesn’t have a bunch of questionable design choices based around a paid sync monetization scheme. Silverbullet is self hosted and has a web app. Logseq is a webapp, packaged for Android and desktop, but only allowed file access for your data so you can’t self host sync… Because they charge for that. It’s a mess.

If you’re already running a million docker containers then just get a vps somewhere to host your blog. Cheapest reliable one I found last I looked was vultr. I think mine is $15 a year.

Yeah, voipms is great and there’s a sms app for Android available on fdroid. It really is so cheap you won’t need to pause it, and works fine with linphone or whatever sip app you want to use.

If you’re worried about ai fingerprinting your writing style, maybe have an ai rewrite your posts?

If you’re that worried about it you probably shouldn’t be posting at all. I noticed reading through reddit and Lemmy that other autistic people write similarly. When I looked into it there’s been research done on it, and apparently it’s a pretty good predictor or autism. It’s not just a matter of identifying you, ai will likely be able to apply various diagnoses.

Is there a specific benefit to that over something like a security key with a keypad, or even just a passphrase?

Sorry, I’ve not used a redhat based distro in at least 20 years, so you’re going to have to get that info from someone else. I’d assume that’s the one though, and I doubt you need to go looking for something better. It is what it is.

Download a wireguard client file and run it as a systemd service. It’ll come up on boot and you won’t ever have to think about it. The only reason to bother with the GUI is if you want to have graphical control of what server you connect to. Their wireguard config generator on their website gives you the ability to set a geographic area for your wireguard client file, so it’s not like you have to select only one server if you go that route either.

I had an update reboot pending and it seems like that got rid of it for me.

Nope… lasted all of 10 minutes.

I’m pretty satisfied with simplex at this point, even without self hosting the back end. But I do really like that I can host the server myself if I do get sketched out.
