1984

I named a lot of my machines hackbox…

I dont know if historic data is very interesting. Its the new content we are interested in…

Yeah. If I needed collaboration, I would just whitelist their ips or require everyone involved to use Wireguard vpn, Tailscale or other solutions that allows access without being publically exposed.

People have open registration on those things… Thats… Brave…

I have my own gitea instance in my homelab but of course its not accessable from the internet.

I think people who self host are the only ones who knows they services wont just disappear, their accounts wont get locked and their data wont be shared with big tech.

Others can wake up one day and not have access to their stuff anymore, and have nothing they can do about it.

How mad is it to just rent access to your movies, or documents, and it can go away at any moment?

An ordinary sftp server. No reason for this to be web based.

Yeah. :) 100% tariffs on data transfers out of American Web Services…

Leta give it to Trump and Elon Musk, they will take good care of it… Lol.

Trump will isolate aws to America only, claiming other countries are ripping him off.

Aws becomes American Web Services.

This thing changes versions faster than I can update my homelab… Lol.

I never thought of it as slow. More like very reliable. I dont need my data to move fast, I need it to be copied with 100% reliability.

Lol sometimes it feels like that here :)

You can store uploads on a different drive if you want also.

Why do people want to ask complete strangers instead of making their own decision?

That must mean that they value the opinion of total strangers more then their own. Isnt that a mindfuck.
