For context, in my password manager I had tried formatting some of my entrees so that it would contain the usual username and password, but instead of creating whole new entrees for the security questions for the same account, I just added additional fields in the same entree in order to keep things a little more tidy.
I was not expecting that doing so would result in later being shaken down by Proton to pay even more money just to access the same few bytes of fucking text I had trusted them with. This is sleazy as fuck and I am dropping these idiots entirely.
If you want a nice way to elevate the usability of your setup use Tailscale (or self-host Headscale) and run your devices on a VPN.
My devices are never not on my “LAN”, they maintain a VPN connection and access my local services as if they’re wired in. Remote pihole, multimedia streaming, password management etc are all covered by this one solution without needing to deal with reverse proxies and certificates.
