  • Heh, ligma. Nice.

  • Hm, so it's encrypted from your beeper client to the bridge, decrypted, then re-encrypted with the outgoing platform's protocol. Seems like a good reason to host your own bridge, and a good call on it being a glaring attack surface.

    Seems like the secret sauce is in how they deal with messaging platform integrations? Maybe the goal is to avoid another iMessage lawsuit. With Beeper as a proof of concept it would be cool to start adding integrations in a fully open source way (legality permitting)

  • That's a cool solution! I'd be interested in making a nix flake to do something similar to that Ansible project. Thanks for linking!!

  • Agreed! I'm pretty psyched about their transparency and the overall model. Especially in the universe where this Apple lawsuit results in Beeper being allowed to connect to iMessage again.

    Would love to hear any results you find with hosting! I'll give it a try too and maybe do a follow on post with what I learn.

  • I'm an old man when it comes to major changes. If it's salvageable then maybe stick with what you've got. Have you used lazy docker or watchtower?

    Lazy docker should give you a more reliable interface (TUI, over ssh, not a GUI)

    Watchtower (aims to) update your containers for you so you don't have to go through this pain in the first place :)

    Personally, I run my Nextcloud and Jellyfin servers on NixOS with auto updates on. It's been chugging along great!

  • I agree gluetun is de way 😂 unfortunately my CPU is nowhere near 100%

  • Save some sex for the rest of us

  • Using gluetun to connect my containers to Mullvad I'm getting 60+% of my bare network speeds.

    Another option that doesn't achieve that performance is torproxy which can achieve a similar result.

  • send to the dumpster any computer produced before 2018

    You mean send into the arms of a frugal Linux enthusiast ;)

  • I like Zoneminder personally, but I'm curious about Frigate. Have you tried both by chance?
