So in an area its almost completely vertically integrated? Wow.

I want to be independent. My understanding is that Tail scale relies on a service they run or a endpoint you run on a VPS - Is that right?
Yeah been using No-ip free but I worry that one day I will forget to confirm and ill ge cut-off.
Yeah maybe I need to consider this.
Be aware of the risks of hosting your websites publicly from home, make sure to run them in very isolated environments. Having your VPS compromised is bad, but having your home network compromised is much worse!
Agree - Not something I will throw myself into.
Yes I use no-ip but have to confirm the domain name every month or so and cant use my own domain on the free tier. (Maybe im just being cheap) - Also I haven’t been able to figure out how I would use / get SSL certificates.
Wow thanks everyone. I think I need to take another look at some of the DynDNS provides and digest all your great feedback.
Id like to go beyond personal self hosting stuff and maybe run some stuff that requires Federation. Im just thinking at the moment.
Im in +1GMT - Happy to help out
I guess it depends if you want to put edge compute in each room. os just audio freeds to something central. But long term I’d avoid anything that uses any propriety service.
My two cents : Id make sure anything you got was based on Bluetooth audio and had a microphone. Then what ever you link them together with software wise doesn’t matter. You could put them together and run HomeAssistant or Openvoiceos for interaction or just have a media player running somewhere that feeds each room.
Yes definitely. Trust is the key
Im ‘between’ jobs at the moment. opportunities for connecting through community projects is attractive right now.
Interesting - I will have a look at disroot.org. Im not immediately understanding them but thats probably because where I encounter it I try to read whats available in Spanish to start.
Is that https://keepass.info/ ?
Yeah I have some friends. Id like to make it easier for them. (With some recognition as well)
Yeah this was what I was thinking. Interested in what people have out there. I dont like reinventing the wheel - Id probably make it an irregular polygon
Useful I have some of this but not other bits. A bit morbid but Im interested in what the break glass mechanism would be.
Yeah . Im good with writing and try to keep things up to date ( try being the word)
Im also trying to template and standardise - Maybe need to think about a deployment process or something.
Feels like something that would integrate well with Nextcloud. I know there are some Nextcloud based Tracker apps. Have a look at Nextcloud Maps Geobookmarks from Fdroid.
A mutual cable / network provider sounds good. How many houses does it cover?
In New Zealand / UK / Spain the network company provides the cables and connections to consumers and retailers/generators who all pay to connect then customers buy their electricity from the chosen retailers - The network companies are relatively large regional operations that are eithe private for profit of trusts (as opposed to coops) all are regulated for a return on capital invested.
With rooftop solar how does the network provider get on balancing demand ? I guess your provider buys electricity at night and sells during the day?
