FYI if you live in Canada don’t use TurboTax, use Wealthsimple(a Canadian company) to file your taxes.

I jumped from Proton and SimpleLogin to selfhosted mailcow and addy.io. I could skip the addy.io part but I have some family members using it and the interface is much easier for them to figure out then the mailcow interface. Plus addy.io has great mobile apps. I use MXroute as my outbound relay since I actually want my emails to get delivered to the inbox and not spam folders.

The only real issue with selfhosted email is making sure you’ve got all your DNS records setup correctly and then making sure you have something like crowdsec watching the logs to keep the script kiddies out.

I dumped Proton and moved to selfhosted email using mailcow. Moved my calendars and contacts over to Nextcloud since I already had it run for files.

Some will say self hosting email is not worth the trouble. I disagree. Once you have the DNS records all setup correctly its just a matter of keeping the software up to date. With mailcow that’s usually a monthly update using the included update script. Also setup something like crowdsec to watch your logs and block the script kiddies. Also don’t even try sending email from your server itself, save yourself the headache and use a relay service. I use MXroute.

Yup. Willing to pay more for Canadian and even goods from Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, etc. Still boycotting a few countries due to current on going matters…

No Loblaws, no matter what. Yes I still shop at Costco as they stuck with their DEI policies and they don’t treat their employees like garbage and pay a reasonable wage(at least here in Canada).

It’s time for travel.gc.ca to be updated to yellow for the US.

No worries. Better than reading that someone got hacked because they left Jellyfin wide open

You could even run a travel router, mini PC or Raspberry Pi, run the VPN on it, connect the Roku to it over the onboard WiFi adapter. On the PC/Pi you’d force all the traffic from the Roku towards Jellyfin over the tunnel. You could even define the Jellyfin in DNS (/etc/hosts) so the internet will never even know you’re running Jellyfin. Something like https://raspap.com/ or even a openwrt travel router from the likes of GL.iNet would work.

Do not. I repeat do not expose Jellyfin to the internet. It has too many security issues to be directly accessible from the internet.

I use Jellyfin and only access it over WireGuard. I have a mesh setup between the routers at a few family members houses.

If you have absolutely no other way then to expose it to the internet you need to make sure that you whitelist only the approved IPs in your VPS firewall and block everything else.

Talk about no brains. This will only speed up other countries cutting ties with the US. I’m waiting to see when and which country will be the first to cut diplomatic relations with them.

It’s called doing your job, Chuck. You should try it.

Damn. Val was a great actor.

I use this to get wireguard in intramfs. I just skip the dropbear related stuff. https://github.com/r-pufky/wireguard-initramfs
