I wouldn’t call N series “dinky”. N100 runs my daily device, coincidently surface-like tablet Chuwi Hi 10 Max, and three of my homelab servers. Proccessing power is more than enough to run modern desktop distro, all the todays shitty javascript websites, work in IDEs, virtualize, and all others server-side task I throw at them.

I’m in the same boat, so I had set up Syncthing more like centralised service - installed one instance on my home server, and made every other device sync only with it. Files propagates without issues.

Just like I said - prevalent reduction of valid arguments for usage of those services.

I prefer to use products and services before inevitable enshittification, not after the curve. Refusing to use them won’t change their fate.

It’s definitely not the same thing. I do understand reservations behind usage free-tier services from Big Bad Corp., but I don’t understand malicious reduction of valid arguments for usage of those services.

Again, attack targets end users, not Cloudflare tunnel operators: It abuses Cloudflare Tunnels as a delivery mechanism for malware payloads, not as a method to compromise or attack people who are self-hosting their own services through Cloudflare Tunnels.

The author of this website is soooo full of himself he doesn’t even notice how he bends reality to fit his point of view.

My daily is a cheap surface-like tablet, Chuwi Hi 10 Max with N100, that runs on Opensuse. The only thing that doesn’t work are internal cameras, everything else is great. I can only assume Fedora would be the same.

Understandable. It’s compromise I’m ok with, so that’s why I mentioned this method.

I use cloudflare tunnel for this purpose. No open ports, no dealing with ISP, no exposing my IP.

I did, because of energy efficiency and quietness. But also I heavily compromised on the amount of space.
