How do we know if there aren't a bunch of more undetected backdoors?

I have been thinking about self-hosting my personal photos on my linux server. After the recent backdoor was detected I’m more hesitant to do so especially because i’m no security expert and don’t have the time and knowledge to audit my server. All I’ve done so far is disabling password logins and changing the ssh port....

mfat,

I think you can use Tailscale Funnels for that.

mfat,

My ssh auth logs show a lot of login attempts from chinese IPs. That prompted me to install Fail2Ban…

mfat,

There are several known instaces of crypto exchages getting hacked.

mfat,

Very good points. Call me paranoid but i always fear I might fail to notice the symptoms of something nasty going on. I wish linux had a built-in, easy-to-use auditing/alerting system. I know this can be achived by experts but others have no idea what’s actually going on on their machines.

mfat,

Would be great if we could see a benchmark vs auto-cpufreq.

mfat,

It matters since a top 3 distro will identify with KDE Plasma desktop. This is not very common.

mfat,

GNOME is grared toward dev people who need something almost as minimal as a wm. KDE is better suited for average users.

mfat,

Donno why i was downvoted. I’ve been an avid KDE fan for years.

mfat,

My laptop has Intel UHD graphics. Things are slightly better since I enabled TLP.

mfat,

I use KDE only. I’ll surely give this a try thank you.

mfat,

I’ve never had a laptop that hibernates correctly with Linux. Is it something I can achieve with more research or some laptops won’t hibernate anyway? I routinely have that shitty experience when I pick up my laptop to see it has no juice left although I didn’t use it and it was apparently asleep.

mfat, (edited )

Just checked out its github page. seems very interesting

mfat,

That’s very interesting. I thought that intel Wi-Fi cards can’t do AP mode anywhere. I had no luck on ubuntu and openwrt. Didn’t know Windows could help. I’ll try to build a Windows VM with passthrough.

mfat,

Awesome, thanks much.
