Debian's Freedombox
Posted: 2019-08-19 16:03
I was a bit behind the times until I installed Buster but a few days ago I stumbled on Freedombox, which I was able to successfully install on a Model 2 Raspberrypi connected to my router.
So far so good; I'm pretty impressed. It makes it look very easy to set up a pesonal, home server with https. The only snag I can see at the moment is setting up a domain using a dynamic IP address, but it seems a free solution is available to do this too. Webmail can be enabled by using Roundcube but of course, a static IP address is to be preferred. For a demo see: freedombox.org/demo/).
I've already set up a few applications including searx, the free search engine, and MediaWiki.
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this topic.
Thanks for reading.
