  • No problem! I’ve used it for years, though my home assistant running on a Raspberry Pi 4 is now doing the pi-hole thing with adguard instead as the original one was having issues. Though you get weird DNS quirks when the machine running DNS also relies on the internet.

    Plus that time I did a dumb thing in home assistant to see what would happen, and it brought the internet down.

    So I am keen to get another Pi. I highly recommend keeping it on a dedicated device you never touch except for updates!



  • One of my favourites that I haven’t seen mentioned is the Todo.txt extension.

    It adds a todo list in the tray synced to a couple of files (that I store in Nextcloud). I add things I need to do to the list, and I also play with the settings so it colours by priority and sorts by priority.

    I also use the ntodotxt app on my phone to sync items. The app is fine but I really like the gnome extension, very handy.

















  • Cheers for that. Many of these issues allow an authenticated user to do admin actions if they do the right things, so it seems you should never allow a user that you don’t fully trust to have an account.

    But outside of this, there isn’t anything in there that on its own worries me given the nature of the platform (that is, that if it all burnt down I could retrieve all data from other sources). I’m no expert but a cursory look shows a bunch of potential issues that may be layered with other issues but no clear attack path except with prior knowledge.

    These should obviously be fixed but there’s nothing that makes me want to rip my server off the open internet in a hurry.
