There are several proprietary options (many/most of which you cannot host). Looking for Amazon Wishlist alternatives should help in putting together a list of potential options. Some additional projects which are open source and selfhostable that you could also start with include:

Everything I mentioned works for LAN services as long as you have a domain name. You shouldn't even need to point the domain name to any IP addresses to get it working. As long as you use a domain registrar that respects your privacy appropriately, you should be able to set things up with a good amount of privacy.
Yes, you can do wildcard certificates through Let's Encrypt. If you use one of the reverse proxies I mentioned, the reverse proxy will create the wildcard certificates and maintain them for you. However, you will likely need to use a DNS challenge. Doing so isn't necessarily difficult. You will likely need to generate an API key or something similar at the domain registrar or DNS service you're using. The process will likely vary depending on what DNS service/company you are using.
Congrats on getting everything working - it looks great!
One piece of (unprovoked, potentially unwanted) advice is to setup SSL. I know you're running your services behind Wireguard so there isn't too much of a security concern running your services on HTTP. However, as the number of your services or users (family, friends, etc.) increases, you're more likely to run into issues with services not running on HTTPS.
The creation and renewal of SSL certificates can be done for free (assuming you have a domain name already) and automatically with certain reverse proxy services like NGINXProxyManager or Traefik, which can both be run in Docker. If you set everything up with a wildcard certificate via DNS challenge, you can still keep the services you run hidden from people scanning DNS records on your domain (ie people won't know that an SSL certificate was issued for immich.your.domain). How you set up the DNS challenge will vary by the DNS provider and reverse proxy service, but the only additional thing that you will likely need to set up a wildcard challenge, regardless of which services you use, is an email address (again, assuming you have a domain name).
Raspberry Pi + PiHole + PiVPN = Network Gateway Drug
Although, PiVPN is winding down so you might want to find something different instead. Setting up a regular Wireguard VPN isn't so bad, but it may be simpler to setup a Tailscale Tailnet.
I was looking for a free opensource sharing plateform first
What type of sharing platform are you looking for? A git repo? A single file sharing service? A code/text snippet sharing service? Something else?
There are many options available. Some have free, public instances available for use. Others require you to self host the service. Regardless, you're not stuck using Github just to share your user.js file.
the only sites I give permenant cookie exception are my selfhosted services
This is what I was referring to. How are you accomplishing this?
I'm still looking for the switches to block all new requests asking to access microphone, location, notification
I can't help with this at the moment, but if you're still struggling with this I can provide the lines required to disable these items. However, I don't know how to do this with exceptions (ie allowing your self hosted sites to use that functionality, but block all other sites). At minimum though you could require Firefox to ask you every time a site wants to use something. This may get repetitive for things like your self hosted sites if you have everything clearing when you exit Firefox.
Didn't look at the repo thoroughly, but I can appreciate the work that went into this.
- Is there any reason you went this route instead of just using an
user-overrides.jsfile for the standard arkenfoxuser.jsfile? - Does the automatic dark theme require enabling any fingerprintable settings (beyond just possobly determining the theme of the OS/browser)?
- How are you handling exceptions for sites? I assumed it would be in the
user.jsfile, but didn't notice anything in particular handling specific URLs differently.
https://github.com/owntracks/android
The F-Droid version (which is available on IzzyOnDroid's repo) utilizes OSM. You'll need a server to sync the data to though and it likely does not have all of the features that Life360 has.
How do you use your Beelink? More specifically what OS (and maybe core/most used apps) do you have installed? How do you interact with it (eg - wireless keyboard/mouse, USB IR receiver, etc.)?
Any downside to this approach compared to using the Smart TV/Android TV/Apple TV features?
Calls made from speakers and Smart Displays will not show up with a caller ID unless you’re using Duo.
Is it possible to use Duo still? Google knows it discontinued/merged Duo with Google Meet nearly 18 months ago, right?
I think that @[email protected] is asking for Proton to become an OAuth/OIDC provider. This would allow you to sign into any service, app, platform, etc. that supports it using your Proton account. Some common providers that are widely supported are Google, Apple, Github, Facebook, and Microsoft.
It is generally considered more secure than using "regular credentials" like username/email and password when using several services. There are a few downsides to this though. One of those downsides is that your OAuth/OIDC provider will have record of all your accounts used through OAuth/OIDC. For example, @[email protected] would like to avoid Google knowing about the various services used.
Thanks for the reply! I am currently looking to do this for a Kubernetes cluster running various services to more reliably (and frequently) perform upgrades with automated rollbacks when necessary. At some point in the future, it may include services I am developing, but at the moment that is not the intended use case.
I am not currently familiar enough with the CI/CD pipeline (currently Renovatebot and ArgoCD) to reliably accomplish automated rollbacks, but I believe I can get everything working with the exception of rolling back a data backup (especially for upgrades that contain backwards incompatible database changes). In terms of storage, I am open to using various selfhosted services/platforms even if it means drastically changing the setup (eg - moving from TrueNAS to Longhorn, moving from Ceph to Proxmox, etc.) if it means I can accomplish this without a noticeable performance degradation to any of the services.
I understand that it can be challenging (or maybe impossible) to reliably generate backups while the services are running. I also understand that the best way to do this for databases would be to stop the service and perform a database dump. However, I'm not too concerned with losing <10 seconds of data (or however long the backup jobs take) if the backups can be performed in a way that does not result in corrupted data. Realistically, the most common use cases for the rollbacks would be invalid Kubernetes resources/application configuration as a result of the upgrade or the removal/change of a feature that I depend on.
