Is there some way to self host what cloudflare does?

Your domain will always have to be rented through a 3rd party. Cloudflare is (or was?) one of the better choices for that.

Cloudflare does other things as well, most notably it can acts as a proxy: an inbetween between your server and the users. This inbetween can be useful against DOS attacks, blocking of bots, etc. But for most self hosters that part is not necessary. It’s a toggle in cloudflare’s DNS dashboard: I think you’d want it to say DNS only.

Another thing cloudflare can do is tunneling. It’s useful for when your server is behind a firewall or NAT or double NAT you can’t or don’t want to configure. You’d probably know if you use this, so I assume you don’t?

Is there any meta analysis on these major outages?

They seem to be occuring more and more regularly.

Depending on 3rd parties is a pain in the ass

Awesome selfhosted lists https://github.com/heyform/heyform as a possibility.

Mine simply doesn’t take notes. We just walk and talk.

that notes are only for the therapist?

They might think that they’re doing so, yet still use onedrive / google docs. Ignorance - inexcusable ignorance if you ask me - but sadly not rare.

Stock raspberry os and syncthing sounds like the easiest way to do this.

I also dislike graphana kabana elastic behemot.

You can use rsyslog to centralize the logs. Then there’s tools like this for anomaly detection on those logs.

Uptime monitoring and notifications

I use a 2nd hand thin client from lenovo.

I’ve done cron @reboot keep-one-running <mycommand> before (1)

My guess is tracker is outdated

Great news, thanks!

Hopefully the android releases will be able to follow, as I understand the original syncthing authors will no longer be supporting android.

Yet theyre not a surveillance state to the same extend as the EU. So overall better I think.

The same government that last minuted attached this amendment to an unrelated directive asks you to trust them with your most private information. 🙄

Why’s that?

I was thinking asian/middle east, ideally a place that does not care for US/EU
