I do it on daylight when my FV pumps out Wh...

A little bit day by day.

I have been hosting my mail server for over 10 years. You need to study dkim, dmark and all the other stuff, but it can be done indeed and its not scary at all.

If the price is right for you, go for it. You will run containers and or VMs, so doesn't really matter what your bare metal is.

I would choose something where I can install Linux easily and nice and I am sure at the Mac mini price point you can build yourself an assembled mini-pc with beefer specs, but indeed it's more work and hassle.

YMMV

Recode to AV1, free and open codec with a better compression and quality than 265.

Its future proof and more and more supported out of the box everywhere.

Either go tdarr, or check https://github.com/gardiol/media_fixer for a neat bash script capable of find and convert your videos automatically

I do. I find it very useful.

Is it safe? No idea, but its read only, so seems that they cannot operate on your bank account in any case. That feels safe enough for me.

The OS needs access to the keys accepted by the bl. Pixels have that, so graphene can relock. Other vendors don't give this opportunity, so Roms like los which support many devices, better be safe than sorry.

Try relock on a xiaomi device and you have unrecoverable hard brick.

A locked bootloader looks for official ROM signatures, which a custom ROM doesn't have.

That's why this is impossible. You can hard-brick your phone, that's why LineageOS doesn't allow you to relock.

These blog posts might seems a bit nahive, but making fun of them is not nice.

I still appreciated reading them and the raised some questions in me, even if maybe not the ones the author was aiming for.

Still interesting.

Whats wrong with people just criticizing everything around here? Are we getting toxic like "the other site"?

LineageOS stock

Not a bad take per-se, but a bit condescending. While I agree and like the KISS paradigm, remember that no solution works at a lower complexity level of the problem itself.

So, define your problem clearly, find the simplest possible solution. Don't overcomplicate, I agree, but don't be fooled by false hopes.

Is it really simpler? Yes. Will it scale if I need it to? Maybe not, but will I really need for it to scale?

And so on.

I installed from fdroid, I expect it to be still available as far as it will work...

And I guess somebody will build and keep publishing it just not on google play, which is anyway a cesspool nowadays, so no big deal.

Nope!

Just wasted 3 days debugging an IP assigned to two devices... Not fun, don't do it...
