  • The only ads I can’t automatically block are the posters in the street. Luckily there are good regulations in place about that where I live, so it’s not all that bad. But I am pretty upset when I have to stare at a 5x3 meters large AI generated slop-ad during my train commute. What are they thinking? This all looks uncanny as hell.


















    • pihole: DNS ad-blocker abd also a DNS (and optionally DHCP) server for your home
    • Wireguard: VPN very simple to setup, for remote access to your services from outside your home. What I do: wireguard is running (as a server) on a VPS, with all the security measures in place (ssh password login turn off, firewall bocks everything but wireguard and ssh connection changed to another port, failban) then my NAS at home connects to this VPS, as well as my phone, laptop, etc.
    • Caddy: reverse proxy to address your service using your domain, it’s easy to setup, actually it’s the only reverse proxy I managed to setup successfully 😅. You can use the Nameservers from your domain provider to point to your NAS via the wireguard IP address for connection from the outside, and Pihole DNS to point to local IP address when at home.
