I use duplicati for docker containers. You just host it in docker and attach all the persistent volumes from the other containers to it, then you can set up backup jobs for each.

Telegram is less private then whatsapp, unless you use the private chats it’s not even encrypted.

File upload is not a chromium feature, it’s a super old basic feature. It’s just their pittiness and upcoming drm implications. I bet if you set your user-agent to chrome it woould work just fine.

I can only find it pleasent if I really had to go to the toilet but couldn’t for some reason, but it’s a pleasent feeling of release not a generally pleasent feeling. Like as if you had to deal with a very annoying person and doing almost anything afterwards feels pleasent.

Communism is socialism, but socialism is not necessarily communism. Socialism is the counter part to capitalism, and communism is a form of socialism. I found this video very helpful when I had the same question.

Yeah, same reason why disc wheels are only allowed in the back at time trials.

Some Youtube-Channels I can recommend, but with varying levels of “noob”-friedlieness. Just watch a few and decide for yourself which can help the most:

As for a reverse proxy, it depends how you want to access your services. If you’re just gonna host your services on docker and then publish ports on the host you can just access them that way. But that way they are of course not encrypted, which in your home LAN can be fine. To really use a reverse proxy you also need to have a way to rewrite or add dns entries in your local network. All the domains and subdomains you’d want to use must point to the reverse proxy which would then forward the requests to the services.

The way I have it configured right now is that I have a reverse proxy on my docker host which has the ports 443 and 80 published on the host, while all the services I use in docker on that host do not have published ports. They’re all then in a network with the reverse proxy so it can forward the requests to the services. That way I can encrypt everything with SSL/TLS and have trusted certificates on everything. I use nginx proxy manager which also handles my certificates.

The really vulnerable open ports are the ones you forward to your router. But you only need those when you want to access services from outside your network. But I would wait on that until you feel comfortable.

I find this very hilarious after seeing so many people make threads accs and posting them to their stories on insta when you can’t even use the app. And I kept thinking about the mountaons of data their collecting.
