  • I was in this situation with family. I ended up doing the expensive-ish option and setting up some cameras through the roof and replacing the front ring doorbell with a reolink doorbell camera.

    Idiots use these doorbell cameras. Soon I’m going to just have a regular doorbell and an actual good camera on the front porch ceiling.

    I suggest Reolink local only, sd card, and if you can have a small Frigate or something server so they can access at least the video. I only suggest reolink because that’s what I’ve only ever used.

    I have a feeling you’re on to something, but also feel this might be needed for a niche use case.

    And like another comment pointed out, in-browser extensions obviously only impact the browser. But like you said you’ll be using it to prevent sites from knowing you’re using tor so that should be alright.

    I like this idea for using “free” or suspicious VPNs. But all this routing would totally slow down the connection, especially on the already limited free vpn connections.






  • Right? Although I’d love to communicate with everybody in my community and be reachable on the ready, do I really want to give up my values for people who don’t care to understand them? If you wanna contact me outside of face to face, then use what I use. And it goes for the other way around too. Not worth the stress.



  • Yeah people have been talking (real life) about their breaks from it and thoughts on leaving the social media sludge whenever I say I don’t use that stuff. It’s refreshing, but I still reject sharing my number except for work and maybe a baddie every now and then. Wish I didn’t even need to pay for one even for how cheap it is.
