It's fairly technically complex to set up a server, and the clients are very fragmented with no standard feature set, OMEMO encryption is also outdated in the libraries used in popular clients.

Overall I've tried it a few times, but the clients are just too dated feeling with no good easy to use PC clients.

Oh for sure, I just wonder if the size being the same on 2 of them is a result of Firefox storing some default data there on cleanup by accident.

What is the data it's keeping? 25-100 bytes doesn't seem like there's anything actually there.

Are you using google keyboard?

Are you speaking things out loud that the google assistant could be listening to?

I looked around awhile ago and didn't really find anything good.

I think the best option is a raspberrypi and one of those 12-15" portable HDMI monitors.

True, although once per hour would still be a lot of data.

For example me running a fast.com test uses about 1.5GB of data to run a single test, so around 1TB per month if ran hourly.

They do make RF blocking paint, but it's very expensive and I have no idea if it would be enough to fully block microwave signals.

Your router doesn't handle LAN traffic so an upgrade shouldn't make any difference, unless you have multiple VLANs and are passing traffic between them and don't have a Layer 3 switch in use to handle inter-VLAN routing.

I would probably start with an iperf test for download bandwidth to the Pi from the server. If that looks OK then I would benchmark the NFS share for read speed on the Pi, make sure that's not doing something weird.

If that all looks good then I would probably suspect that Kodi either isn't using hardware acceleration properly, or the specific media codec is not supported by the Pi for hardware acceleration.

Fair warning that this would chew through a ton of bandwidth if you run it often, so only do it if you don't have bandwidth caps.

Security for a full blown web app is not trivial and has a bigger “attack surface” than a kdbx file moving p2p through my devices via syncthing.

Absolutely.

My Vaultwarden instance is only accessible via LAN or VPN though, I don't think I'd want to expose it to the internet.

Ooh ok, I'll play around with it some more.

Until it re-enables itself like so many toggles in Firefox do after updates.
