Yeah, Myth's built-in internet browser is pretty dire - I have a 2nd virtual desktop to open a browser if I want to watch something via the internet, but I don't bother with Netflix, etc...
Well... of course only time will tell, but the fact that we've been doing that for sooo long... (me for ~20 years?) would imply that it might just be around for longer than snap/flatpak/etc
If the hardware's standard, then it's possible for people (us) to keep these things out of the ground / incinerator for a few more years, but if it's custom / proprietary stuff, then that's just terrible.
Just to add... if you don't want this, the minimal version of the HA app doesn't use 3rd party systems for notifications (you'd need to setup something yourself), so if this is a problem for you, there's also that option..
I'm struggling with what appears to be buggy wifi on an old Lenovo laptop... I spent a moment just looking at the logs and appreciating whoever has spent time and energy trying to get this working, probably reverse engineering without any support... I wonder if that was Larry...?
Maybe not a docker solution, but you could throw pfSense into a VM and do all that from there
I use it (as it's intended) as my firewall, but I used to use these as general purpose network security VMs in the past (just because I know the product well)
So for you: no firewall rules, just setup DNS with pfBlocker (for the advert blocking) and setup the VPN as required...
2a: Using a domestic DSL router and Synology NAS to run everything
2b: Has a Raspberry Pi (or 6) maybe a 2nd repurposed old PC and possibly an unmanaged switch
2c: Full height 19" rack, UPS, firewalls, managed switches, full virtualisation with SAN, redundancy and 100Gb full fibre internet
Not heard of Tablo... I'll take a look
