Rustdesk for me is fantastic, it's completely replaced everything else. Except for 1 small hitch, that I cannot seem to solve, and I don't know if it is Rustdesk's fault, but it's the only service I am hosting that has this problem. LAN can connect to LAN, and external can connect to external. However local machines cannot communicate with devices outside my network, and devices outside my network cannot communicate with LAN devices.........

Fixed it by using VPN on my machine, so I'm no longer within my own network, and using... Another program for when I need to connect to my local machines outside of my own network.

This is a smart solution. Only solution I have so far is self hosting bitwarden, using unique password to login, and having 2fa to login to bitwarden, where the key is in bitwarden, and on aegis on a phone at home.

You're absolutely right. It's all about your threat model, how much convenience you're willing to lose and what not.
I absolutely should do more to minimize potential risk, but it's really so convenient to just.... Have it all in 1 place...

For anyone reading this and getting ideas.... Syncthing is not a backup tool. Please don't use it for backups. the devs have addressed this so many times.

Before you lose your data, please try deleting a single file and see what happens.

I'd love to know how to deal with this. Currently sitting on 12TB used. Decent upload but cloud storage for that much is expensive. I have 5 8TB HDDs, 2 of which act as redundancy in RAID6 config.

One thought I had was convince a friend to setup the same, and dedicate half of each other's storage as redundancy for the other person.

I'm learning web design, and one of those topics I need to learn is SEO so the websites I make rank higher. While I don't like the idea of "gaming the system" to rank higher, it kind of becomes a necessity when everyone does it. What for you makes it such a scummy business?
