I think I sent you an e-mail back then, but let me take this opportunity to heap a bunch of praise and gratitude upon you in front of God and everybody. I bought several books on BGP at the time and slogged through them, but it was intimida

I use Bitwarden with Vaultwarden running in a Docker container on my Synology NAS. I have about 8 of my family and friends using it via a Wireguard VPN. It works well, but being the admin of it is a real responsibility. I regularly back it
