The only downside is that the smartphone needs to be unlocked 🙁

Yes, you're right. Are we able to go back? I mean, do they want to go back from being paid to almost nothing? And if I'm not mistaken, professional YouTubers produce a quality of videos that didn't exist back in the days.

Damn, you're right! That cheap SSD could bankrupt us! 🙈😆

we really need a FOSS decentralized video sharing platform to take hold

I'd love for that to happen, but without being paid by a central company, content creators won't...create content. Will it work with content creators own sponsors? Mmm...I don't know

Thanks for your point of view. All of my services are containers that have config and data folder bind mounted from an encrypted partition. After power on, a script download from a website half of the key needed to decrypt data, the other half is in the boot partition. In this way if my server gets stolen I can delete the half key stored on the website and the data disk can't be decrypted. About swap, you're right, but that doesn't worry me at all since I don't think that there's anybody that would goes into that trouble just for my data. If someone is able enough and takes the trouble to read it, I guess that's going to be the last of my problem: it would mean that I'm already in biiiiig troubles! 😆

You're just missing the part where I want to be on vacation without the need to find a decent Internet connection to boot my server because the power went off. What's the plus of encrypting the OS partition too?

That's interesting, but that won't help if I'm away or on vacation on the other side of the world

If you tick the encryption box during install, you will have to enter the decrypt password at every boot and that means that if the power goes out for long enough (UPS doesn't keep the server up for hours), I (and my family) will not have access to the self hosted stuff until I'll be home and this is why I encrypt only the data partition and not the boot one.

I do bind mount data folders of the containers, I do backups, I have a notification system that alerts me if a container is not up, but a container can be up but have problems and, most importantly, I (and I guess a lot of other people) don't always have time to solve problems. When I a few spare minutes a do a snapshot, I update the containers and if something goes wrong if I have time I troubleshoot it, otherwise I just roll back the snapshot and I'll have a look at the problem when I'll have time.

Nothing, it's just an extra check.

But from the moment that the script updates and breaks something and the moment he realizes it may be too late for some applications.

For example I host Traccar to track car/vans and in this case some tracks would be lost. Or maybe SyncThing, he may realize days/weeks later that a sync is not working and if he was synching his smartphone pictures with his server and the smartphone is lost/broke/stolen, he may lose days/weeks or even months of pictures.

I wouldn't trust a script. Use Watchtower or What's up Docker

So it's the use of a browser within a browser? Is it any different than just using Firefox containers (they are AWESOME!!!) and a VPN add-on?
