IoS - internet of shit

With the enshittification of streaming platforms, a Kodi or Jellyfin server would be a great starting point. In my case, I have both, and the Kodi machine gets the files from the Jellyfin machine through NFS.

Or Home Assistant to help keep IOT devices that tend to be more IoS. Or a Nextcloud server to try to degoogle at least a little bit.

Maybe a personal Friendica instance for your LAN so your family can get their Facebook addiction without giving their data to Meta?

I haven’t used Tailscale myself, but it seems like it’s basically just a Wireguard frontend.

One of my friends and I end up troubleshooting for an hour before we can actually start playing games. Every single time. Linux just doesn’t want us to play games together, I guess.

One of us!

There are some minor choke points (restorecon if installing with a “dirty home” and installing RPMFusion), but yeah, otherwise it does a great job of staying out of your way.

I wish someone would send me $5 out of pity for my non-malware code.
