Futo (Louis Rossman) at it again with great content, this time a Guide to a Self Managed life. This 14hrs long guide comes in two video parts, aswell as a written guide for those who prefer. Both video and written quide comes with complete chapters and timestamps. This should be a great starting point for those who have the time and want to start learning from the very beginning.

    heavily opinionated

    Is that of itself not an opinion…?

    outdated

    Tbf I haven’t looked at the source material but I don’t think two points make it “outdated”. It’s like calling Debian outdated.

      Nope. It is objectively opinionated, since he only shows his solution and offers or shows no other solution.

      Tbf I haven’t looked at the source material but I don’t think two points make it “outdated”. It’s like calling Debian outdated.

      Debian is not outdated, also is the technology not outdated he used in the guide (as far as i can tell since i have not read through everything). But using those to get to the shown solution is outdated. When someone in this community asks for a VPN solution most ppl will recommend Wireguard and or tailscale and not OpenVPN.

      OpenVPN has other benefits like better user management and more customizability but for this use case it is not the fit, since other solutions are easier to setup and harder to fuck up the security part for a beginner.

      Edit: Those are only the 2 examples i picked. I have not looked through everything, but those 2 stood out to me by just looking at the ToC.
