• Recommendation for a wifi router with L2TP or other VPN server support?

  If your current router supports a custom firmware like openWRT then you could do this without having to buy a new one. Source: 6 months ago

• OpenWrt Site Account Creation

  Unfortunately, I can't create an account via Github on the openwrt site. Source: 9 months ago

• openwrt.org not loading

  Anyone else having trouble reaching openwrt.org right now? I can't get the forums, main page or downloads. I've done plenty of troubleshooting and there isn't anything else on my network having trouble reaching anything else on the internet. Source: 9 months ago

• Things just got a little weird, my current network is down, I'm a newb trying to start from the ground up and I found out I actually have another (newer) wifi router.... what to do?

  On the router. openwrt.org has lots of great documentation that lays out exactly what you're looking for and then some. Source: 12 months ago

• As of June 2023, what is the best router that I could buy specifically for ease of use with all things pi-hole related

  Is the Verizon one a combined modem/router? If you want to add your own router, you might have to call them and ask them to put it into bridged mode.

• A new onboarding experience on Mastodon

  The title undersells the change a bit in my opinion. By default, mastodon now encourages new users to sign-up on https://mastodon.social which has caused a bit of a kerfuffle in the fediverse. Personally, I'm largely ambivalent to the change; I understand the reasoning, and it's what https://element.io has been doing for https://matrix.org since the beginning. It is more than a bit of a sea-change though given the... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Paying users get early access to the new change

  We currently have the Matrix protocol, with client applications such as Element supporting it. We also have XMPP as another option. Generally more modern than IRC, these platforms are primarily developed as FOSS software. This makes it less likely for developers to impact their users negatively. However, despite these advantages, these platforms lack the refined user experience (addictiveness and stickiness) that... Source: about 1 year ago

• [For Hire] Computer Programming Tutor or Teacher (C, C++, and others, details inside)

  Please DM me if you are interested in hiring me or have any questions at all. We will work via Element (https://element.io) voice/screen share calls, so please make sure you have a mic available. I look forward to hearing from you. Source: about 1 year ago

• Discord alternatives?

  Your best bet is probably matrix, the most user friendly client iirc is element. Source: about 1 year ago
