My Zigbee network was a mishmash of different vendors all of which had their own failure rates and quirks, Aqara having by far the highest failure rate and complexity.
My new Ikea (Thread) based setup has had absolutely zero issues so far and fingers crossed it doesn’t start suffering as I scale it out. That said, it is noticeably slower than Zigbee, but we’re talking 50ms > 250ms. Which is more than acceptable.
If the government blocks Mullvad then I’ll just switch to Wireguard on a Helsinki based VPS via Hetzner.
I ended up making a long list of firewall rules to block specific sites IPv6 ranges, which worked until I hit cloudflare backed sites.
I’m really hoping UniFi start supporting IPv6 WireGuard soon.
Now I can rip all that out and use this! Bravo!
But the Commodore 64x and Commodore OS don’t mirror the spirit of 8bit micros. Hardware hacking, direct access to the CPU etc. The Commander X16 is probably the only true “modern” hackable computer in my opinion.
I just hope future generations can experience the power of completely open hardware and as a species we don’t “forget” how computers actually work.
I have nothing to hide, but I’m still not giving you access to my photo library.
