I can’t see any reason to trust this project with my browsing.
People are lazy
Yeah, that tracks. It sounds like Type 1 Laziness: people who don’t want to do anything.
I sense you make this because you are Type 2 Lazy: Happy to learn and make 100 new things to avoid having to do a boring thing more than once. That’s something I can both appreciate and relate to.
Sorry if this is a silly question, but what is the use case for this?
Other than Friendica, Mastodon, Matrix, PeerTube and PieFed, what’s worth running on a Docker instance with 8 VCPUs, 16GB of RAM and around 300GB of storage?
I usually do it the other way around. I figure out what I want to run and at what scale and then I get the server.
You can certainly do all that learning with or without directly connecting the fiber to your firewall pc. For a mini pc you will likely need to get a USB to SFP adapter. If you want to go that route I suggest searching for compatible hardware recommendations and get a USB to SFP that has worked well for others.
Personally I would stick with the ISP modem. In any case, happy learning!
This is working fine with no issues.
It seems like a lot of time and effort with no upside except having one device in the place of two. Is there more you are hoping to accomplish with this proposed change?
3·10 days agoAs far as I know you can change the audio output per app but not per monitor.

To be clear, I’m not trying to discourage you from posting about your project and I think you should always pursue such personal challenges.
I also think it helps others better contextualize your project if you include a bit in your post about your motivation (like in your reply).
To me, it’s also very nice to mention alternatives you are aware of and how your project compares to them. “It’s doesn’t do as much as Handbrake but it’s simpler” is a selling point for some people.
