In this post I share some my personal journey with some selfhostesd open source apps and how they helped me. Maybey you will find some stuff in there that helps you as well.

      It does look great! Looks like the perfect FOSS alternative for Cerberus Anti-Theft.

      But is Cloudflare required to use FMD?

        So I just use it by authorizing my wife a and kids to use fmd commands, which means I just tell my wife to send me a text with “fmd ring” and it will start ringing until I find and stop it.

        Also, it will message my wife and kids if the phone gets below 5%

        it is not, OP states in their blog that they use a cloudflare reverse proxy (probably a cloudflare tunnel) to secure the fmd instance, but you can also just not expose it to the web and use a VPN to access it on your home network :)

    First thing that popped into my mind:

    🎵Let me take you down, 'cause I’m going to…Strawberry Fields. Nothing is real. And nothing to get hung about. Strawberry Fields forever🎵

    Nice blog. Good read. Well written and entertaining. Bookmarked. Thank you for sharing.

    Great post. Just a heads up, I feel like the “loading” screen with it’s fade in and out animations and all actually make your website feel slower than it needs to.

    Since you are German, don´t forget the Impressum. I think it is mandatory and some people are dicks.
