  • Firstly, wildcards are convenient but they break your functionality of to which you are connecting which is half of what TLS does. That may or may not be important to you.

    You are implying that https is supposed to be done by the individual server and not reverse proxy. Since otherwise you could not “authenticating the server”













  • I use B2 for my restic Backup. Currently i have about 100GB stored there and it says i have about 100,000 files stored.

    With the adjusted calculation of the blog you posted for 10TB of 50KB files, adjusted to the mean file size of my restic repository 10 TB of 1MB files:

    Transaction fees: 10,000,000 / 10,000 x $0.004 = $4

    My Laptop has a mean file size of about 16 MB per file on the local restic repository.

    EDIT: Forgot a resume, i do not think you need to worry about it too much. But maybe verify the amount and type of data you want to backup and use calculators to calculate the real cost, also you can always test it by creating a test dataset and then do a backup and recovery scenario and then use this to derive an estimate.


  • I think you heavily are misinterpreting the " The Distro does not matter" argument.

    Usually ppl want a distro that “does x” and the answer will be “the distro does not matter, use the one that suits you the mkst”.

    The argument “The disteo does not matter” does not come from the user preferences site of things but feom the technical " i want to video edit, “i want to game” etc.




  • The point is, the anecdotal evidence that you mentioned has nothing to say about other points you are making.

    Just because product X runs better in a use case with software Y, does not mean product X is bad.

    I do not want to come across like a ubiquity fan boy, since i only use it very targeted privately but the stuff is good, it’s supported and a plug and play solution without the cloud. Exactly what fits the bill for what it’s asked for here.

    It is run in operation by thousands of businesses. Does it have problems, sure, like every other brand.

    Have run openWRT myself on one of the latest lite APs, was good. Have not noticed a significant difference in the usage between both.
