I do think that I'm moving more in that direction.

My vision is for my phone to only be connected to a home server, so that all the data is going to hardware I control through I tunnel that I also control. That has some vulnerabilities and some tradeoffs, especially since I do want to live in the mountains and I might not be able to do that due to connection speeds alone. (I refuse to use starlink.)

I'm honestly not sure what my tech future looks like. Some of my more ambitious ideas are clearly out of my ability.

The future of tech is going to happen with or without me. At least if I can put some effort in I can maybe change some things.

Sometimes I think not all problems need to be solved with more technology you know. Like maybe we had it figured out as best we needed.

Yeah and I think more self hosting movements like umbrel and start 9 self hosting may be the future. We tried once in the late 2000s early 2010s but the software just wasn't there imo. It's cool to see VC funding investing into self hosting. Hopefully I won't look like a fool for being hopeful!

I don't think you'll end up the fool in this case. I'm just a fool since I try too much, too soon and can't get anything to work. 🙄
