I recommend building your own firewall. There are awesome, FOSS, FreeBSD-based firewall operating systems like pfSense and OPNSense. You can do a whole bunch of cool stuff with them, like block ads, scan incoming traffic for malware, monitor your network, collect data about your connections and visualize them in a nice dashboard and more.

I run it on my TrueNAS Scale server, very happy with it, works as expected

I use NetBird to access it from anywhere, and to share my Jellyfin server with my friends and family

Is it easy/possible to install the Bazzite tweaks on top of Aurora?

Yes, most of these should be available via ujust

Also, my desktop has an Nvidia card… should I expect problems?

Bazzite (and all UBlue-based distros) specifically ask you what GPU you use before you download the ISO, and they have special images for Nvidia users.

Note the difference between Fedora and Fedora Silverblue. Fedora is a regular Linux distro, like Ubuntu. Silverblue is an immutable distro which uses rpm-ostree and provides atomic updates. Universal Blue is based on Fedora Silverblue whereas Nobara is based on normal Fedora. Bazzite is a more gaming-focused variant of Universal Blue. I prefer Silverblue and Silverblue-based distros, because they are more stable and reliable. Bazzite perfects this experience and adds some more stuff on top, to making everything easier and more pleasant.

Upload to Odysee and use the YouTube Sync feature.

No, absolutely nothing wrong with that. Just want to let everyone know that it's not some random distro, but it actually uses a stable, reliable and well tested base distribution.

uBO doesn't accept donations and AdGuard is a commercial entity that was more than enough money.

It can even be self-hosted https://help.ente.io/self-hosting/

Sorry, but this is really useless. I support the cause, but there is absolutely no need for this software. I think this community is meant for software that actually has a use.

Does it have to be http? If FTP is ok too, you can try primitive ftpd, or the built-in FTP feature in Material Files or Amaze.

Won't do it either

Couldn't you download and add the icons manually?

I recommend LibreWolf (!librewolf@lemmy.ml), a hardened fork of Firefox, which includes protections against most of these things. You can check out a comparison of browsers on https://privacytests.org/ (Mastodon: @privacytests@mastodon.social)

I like yadm - yet another dotfile manager. It uses a Git repository in the background, which you can sync with GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg or a selfhosted Git server like Forgejo.

I'd add some icons for the Steam games

Just so you know: It's based on Universal Blue, which is based on Fedora Silverblue.

That's great

I feel like this article should be posted on centralized social media platforms instead, in order to attract new users to the Fediverse.
