Don’t look online, ask friends and family if someone has an old laptop you can get for free. Very likely someone does, especially if you are ok with a bad battery and/or a broken screen.
A RPi3 can work, but it being ARM based will cause various headaches when learning compared to something x86.


Typically a video-chat server does no transcoding so this isn’t a major issue. But for hosting a Peertube or Owncast server it would.


The old A/V chats in Matrix were just Jitsi-meet in disguise, but this has been largely deprechiated now with Element Calls.


Bitcoin and Ethereum only have liquidity in the market because scammers use it for their pig butchering etc. scams. And all the major exchanges are complicit in that. Many Banks are scammy, yes, but not that scammy by a long shot. Sorry to burst your bubble 🤷


https://movim.eu/ can do that AFAIK, but for now the A/V calls don’t go through an SFU distribution server (coming soonish), so it will not scale to many participants. But if you want to only stream to a few people (like max. 5 or so, depends a bit on your and their internet speed) it should work.


It’s nice that they ported it, but it would be much nicer if there were any server boards with open firmware that not super old, but right now being cycled out of professional use and thus cheap to pick up from resellers.


If 99.9% of PCs were solely made to steal your credit card info, then yes.


I have high hopes for GNU Taler in that regard, as it is in theory super easy to include in any website and makes tipping small sums very feasible.
But in reality it is bogged down by bureocractic hurdles on the banking side, and I am starting to lose a bit of hope due to perpetual delays even after some banks promised to support it as part of an EU grant via Nlnet.


Open minded to being scammed? No thanks.
Lol, wat? I have not seen Anubis even once in front of a static page. You are either making shit up or don’t understand what a static site is 🤦


Well… you found your problem then. It is neither my problem, nor a problem of apartments in general 🤷


Release where? And why?
Also: looks too well fed for a stray. Are you sure it doesn’t belong to a neighbour?
Yeah, that is a pretty realistic assessment, and the author should definitely try out Snikket (XMPP). There are also somewhat decent bridges for xmpp via https://slidge.im/
You could enable Suricata on OPNsense, which will allow you to subscribe to some known attacker lists and so one. But the problem these days are mostly AI scrapers that usually don’t show up on these lists as they are not attackers per se, but just cause a lot of database load by repeatably probing every part of your web-applications.
DSub2000 is also fairly nice for Android.


Many apartments are owned by the inhabitants or are cooperatively managed.


That is a silly assumption, like why would you assume the worst possible setup? And it would be much easier to talk to the person managing the apartment internet than having to deal with some AI chatbot that pretends to be the support at some shitty ISP.
