sorry to hear that, I've been in a very similar situation before and it took me multiple years to fully recover. on the bright side, the pain can be a catalyst for change - I've been reflecting on my life a lot, thinking what i do and don't want or need in my life, and who i want to be going forward - vs. what others want or what may be expected of me. and a ton of positive development and growth came from it.

for the short term, i don't have good advice though. i have an addictive personality so obsessive hobbies and a myriad of sports helped to distract me and get me through the first 1-2 years, but I've been in a bad place either way.

which ootb setting would a regular user realistically need to change? i was actually happy to not have to do anything i'd normally do when installing a new browser

doesn't it just work on the DNS level? I've also seen apps creating a local vpn to manage traffic

Flatpak version seems to run stable enough for my taste, but i'm no expert when it comes to db management

they also offer KDE Neon, which is Ubuntu based and quite decent

keep going, maybe you can bring it down

If the community really wants us to switch, it needs to iron out all this garbage at the front door

not sure which one of us is more entitled, the "community" doesn't owe you anything

that take is from the movie Idiocracy, and is not a fact

 

a nice side effect from creating my project website though is that it includes a setup wizard, so you'll finally be able to actually do something with your Colibri wallet 😅 plus I've wrapped up the code I've used into a TS/React SDK that can be reused for the MyEtherWallet fork! just need some more time and energy, but soon ™️

 

Any of these low-cost ESP32 development boards (ranging from ~$3 to ~$15 on Aliexpress) can be turned into a fully functional and secure crypto hardware wallet with colibri.diy - ofc fully free and open source

The project is still in the pre-release stage, but if you like tinkering with Arduino & hardware, check out the github repository for the firmware and build instructions.

Please let me know what you think!

Just packaged up version 0.0.4 of Colibri.diy!

While there haven't been too many major changes, I've added base address derivation for Solana and Polkadot/Substrate chains, and added DASH, DGB and ZEC support in the "Bitcoin-like" category.

In the background, I've also

  • prepared a Nextra.js skeleton for the companion webapp
  • planned the site's structure, functionality and content
  • sketched out the complete GUI design for the display integration in v0.1.x

The next release will be focused around the companion webapp, so that you can actually set up your wallet without having to resort to BLE debugging tools to do so.

After that's out of the way, I'll be integrating everything into a MyEtherWallet fork, so it finally starts to feel like a real hardware wallet :)

Any feedback appreciated!

 

Just released v0.0.3 of colibri.diy - new features include Ethereum transaction signing and basic Bitcoin support <3

Now working on a companion webapp to ease device setup, and the first 3rd-party wallet integration. Please let me know what you think!

 

the colibri.diy-project is still under development, please give it a star on Github <3

 

just released the firmware three days ago, head over to colibri.diy to find build instructions and more info or read the intro post

Hi Lemmy,

I'm Martin and have been working on a free and open-source, fully DIY crypto hardware wallet for a couple of months now. I' ve just published the first functional preview of the firmware, which can be built by anyone easily using Arduino IDE, and flashed to a variety of $5-off-the-shelve ESP32 boards from Aliexpress.

The first release will allow for storing up to 30 encrypted seed phrases, and Ethereum signing via Bluetooth Low Energy. Under the hood, it's powered by the cryptographic libraries written and used by Trezor.io.

Support for more interfaces and chains can be added fairly easily due to a modular structure, and there is a whole roadmap planned to extend functionality (starting with support for displays).

If you're interested to learn more, check out the README in the Colibri repository.

Please let me know what you think, and leave a 🌟 on Github if you like the project.

Also if there's anything that you've always missed in or been annoyed by a hardware wallet, your input would be greatly appreciated!
