Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Since you're running x86 for your router, do you actively prevent ME from trying to connect to the Internet?
I am aware of the ME, but I can't really do anything about it. Current ARM SBCs are not suitable for a router/firewall (at least in my experience). I'm not that concerned about it though.
OpenWRT isn't half bad for usual "router stuff", but advanced usage is a bit hard to do. Of course, that doesn't eliminate the problem since ARM can have plenty of backdoors too
I know, I tried OpenWRT on a Pi, but the experience wasn't great (at least not as a home router).
