  • Most selfhosted projects do not store such private data.

    That is patently not true, in the self-hosted space or otherwise.

    If you want to take some kind of the security stance on pii or other personal data, you may want to take a look at the app’s workflow first before making declarations of “inadequate security”. There are other considerations than simply slapping a self-signed cert on data in transit (or at rest, for that matter). URL encoding, secrets management, api structure, etc.

    If you want to architect the security of your data using this app, it is much easier to simply encapsulate or encrypt the transport yourself. A VPN would be fine. An authentication proxy would be another.

    Ultimately, your comments on security here need more and better context to meet a reasonable threshold of confronting the dev on it.



  • So there are 3 power modes in “normal” USB; 500mA, 1A, and 2A, all three of these at 5V. The 6T can only deliver 500MA 5V.

    There is also provision in the USB spec over USBC for negotiation of power delivery that allows also changing the voltage to deliver more power. The 6T cannot do this, it lacks the usb PD circuitry.

    However, it can do org (change to “target mode” to become storage for, say, a computer to access its storage. The 6T can do this with android, but you’re right, I haven’t been able to get it to work with pmos.

    I do a lot of tinkering and development with GPS, and I use a few Blox GPS dongles. These need a bit of power to heat the ceramic antenna and atmo pressure sensor. These work with pmos.
