The Belkin RT3200 is a pretty popular router for openwrt. It’s a Wifi 6 router and you can usually find them cheap on ebay.

Most Odroid boards have arm processors, but the H3+ has an Intel N6005.

The communities on different instances are not the same. You can subscribe to both. The idea behind federation is that one company/server can’t control all the traffic. It might result in a little splintering of communities, but I think it’s ultimately better to be decentralized.

All the cards in this stack below the 4080 need to be shifted down a tier. The pricing on this entire generation is insane.

Faceit anticheat is very intrusive and requires disabling virtualization in bios. Also means no Linux support.

That is one that I haven’t done yet, but I’ve found this guide to be a good outline.

It’s still in the works, but I’m planning on:

• Nextcloud (file storage/calendar/office suite)
• Actual (budgeting)
• Home Assistant (IoT device hub)
• Nginx-proxy-manager (reverse proxy)
• Jellyfin (media)
• Headscale, selfhosted version of Tailscale (Mesh VPN)
• *arr stack (media fetching)
• Immich (photos)
• Pihole (DNS adblocking)
• Vaultwarden (password manager)

It’s definitely a lot of stuff, but I’m trying to reduce my reliance on cloud services. Really excited to get this stuff going.
