Hearing your experience with it does help! Thank you for taking the time.
I self host a lot of different services for myself that’s all accessible via VPN. Everything is behind Caddy, and has an SSL cert, but only accessible on my network or via VPN.
I may investigate a VPS for running Sharkord for friends as I don’t want to expose my network more to the outside world. But this sounds rather easy, so thank you!

I was not aware of this until you brought it up. How do you personally host it. I have a group of friends I would like to get one setup for; but I don’t open up my network to the outside world (with exception of VPN for my personal use.)
How you liking it so far?

on I am required to use Gmail as the email client for my school email in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 14 Sep 2026
The same can be said about work. I don’t use Microsoft products in my personal life, but work, work I have to use Microsoft products.
As others have said; compartmentalize it. Treat it as it’s own entity. So for me, what I don’t want Microsoft to know about I keep off work machines, and work emails, and work network.
We sadly don’t get choice when it comes to things like School, work, etc the same as we do for our personal.

I am right there with you. I am not pro-AI either. For non critical projects, I am less against it than for something like core systems, kernel, and such. It is great for log analysis. Taking tons of data and reporting back information I would rather not skim through line by line.
That and like you said, let’s take ethical and environmental concerns out for this. Because those are a whole other issue.
I think if it is used like a tool, and we can get it’s environmental impact under control it can be great used like the tool it is.

Albeit hesitant due to AI use; I may investigate using this.
For years I used Pihole; and still use it as a secondary DNS. But I tried Adguard, and just did not like it. So ultimately I landed on using Technitium. That has been one of the best switches for me when it comes to DNS hosting. But it may not do the job everyone is looking for.
The big reason I switched to using Technitium over Pihole for my primary DNS had less to do with privacy and more to do with functionality. I wanted to automate DNS entries, and while I could with Pihole, it was not as clean. I use DNSWeaver, and whilei DNSWeaver can use Pihole’s API to add DNS records, it doesn’t automatically clean up records when a container stops. So, in came Technitium; allowing TXT records to be created. That is how DNSWeaver knows which DNS records to clean up.
Anyways, big fan of Technitium.
