It almost feels sacrilegious running a Windows VM on my Linux system, but it's the only way i can get the Affinity suite to run reliably.

So proud of my little #WeekendProject: after long without a decent LAN because I cancelled my home Internet subscription in favor of tethering from my mobile phone I finally took the matter in my hands.
I turned my #RaspberryPI into a router who takes my iPhone's Internet connection trough USB tethering and shares it to Wi-Fi and Ethernet clients.
Why I did this instead of just using iPhone's built in Wi-Fi hotspot? Well, it boils down to two reasons:
- Some devices and operating systems struggles with Wi-Fi or may be completely incompatible with it.
- iPhone Wi-Fi enforces client isolation impeding an actual LAN between connected devices. On the Raspberry I'm free to set my own rules for routing, DHCP, DNS... so I put all the devices connected trough both Wi-Fi and Wired under a single subnet where they can easily communicate and share data.
I then installed and configured Avahi (an open source equivalent of Apple's "Bonjour") on devices who didn't had it preinstalled allowing them to find each other using hostnames, without the need of a central DNS.

Part I: General PoT (proof of technology).

What has been very interesting is #PiHole blocking 1326 attempts so far by my smart TV to access logs.netflix.com. We don't even use Netflix!
@thibaultamartin I'm most probably much less skilled than you are, and I can already say that my first #selfhosted deployments on a #raspberrypi and a #VPS were already too much. Resilience and scalability are sooo underrated!
I just gave up on the VPS and the #pihole
I'm even considering to move away from my #synology #NAS and use a "clean" cloud service. Drive, photos backup, contacts/calendar/tasks (but my mail being on #mailfence, I could already have those 3 on my current subscription).
I would be grateful to hear your suggestions about that live, and about decent service that could help me.
Thanks for the great articles!

10+ years after I got #kvm working on a #cubietruck (#arm32) I am now seriously considering #raspberrypi as a production platform for that hypervisor - succeeding the existing #x86_64 one.
