Same, but KeepassXC on PC and KeepassDX on Android, with syncthing to sync

I’m lucky enough that my backup server is at my parent’s place I’m their basement, so it’s off-site by already

Rsnapshot on a second server, saving 7 daily backups, 4 weekly backups, and 6 mk they backups

• Firefox

• Discord

• Slack

• Sync for Reddit (using my own API key with revanced)

• Like 4 Lemmy apps I switch between until Sync for Lemmy happens

• Protonmail

You don’t even need a 12th/13th gen chip tbh. I went from a server with a GTX 1660 to one with an i5-8600 (Well, multiple actually - it’s a kubernetes cluster). They can handle multiple 4k transcodes just fine.

Oh motherfucker

AirVPN I guess then

ProtonVPN has dynamic port forwarding via a Windows client (or a python script if on Linux). Just a heads up, since it could be awkward to work out if you’re downloading from a headless server.

I’ve heard AirVPN is good. I switched to iVPN and I’m satisfied

I use a VPS as a homelab gateway of sorts from the outside.

Essentially, the VPS runs a Wireguard server that I connect to on my OPNSense Router. The VPS then reverse-proxies all incoming traffic through the tunnel to my homelab. All my DNS entries point to the VPS’s IP. This pretty much gives me a static IP, hides my real IP, and lets me do some light caching on the VPS. Kind of like a DIY cloudflare.

I also run Uptime Kuma on the VPS, since it will continue to work if my local network is down.
