Good idea on theory but it would have to constantly be doing speed tests in the background and those eat up a ton of bandwidth. All the phone knows is what kind of network it’s connected to and what kind of signal strength it has

You would not. In the example given 169.254.1.1 doesn’t even exist, no machine is listening on that address so it couldn’t possibly do any good if it wanted to
Setting the default gateway is unnecessary for a network of peers that are already on the subnet. It can only lead to problems as the hosts try to send every request outside their network to 169.254.1.1, which doesn’t even exist in this scenario
The poster you’re replying to is suggesting a static IP in the apipa range, not an apipa assigned ip. You’d already know a static IP because you set it yourself.

You badly need an email client that doesn’t automatically load pictures
If you can’t find an OS that works for you between android, iOS, the multitude of custom android roms, symbian, and Manjaro on the pinephone, then I suggest you either stop being so picky or make your own.
People would tell me on the age of illegally downloaded or someone legally bought mp3s apple was better because you can’t play your mp3s you have to buy them again off apple
Idk why people told you that but it’s never been true. iPods didn’t give a shit where the mp3 came from, only that it was loaded via iTunes.
Anyone who wants to sideload is tech savvy enough to know that and avoid buying an iPhone. I don’t know who this law is supposed to protect.
Imagine buying a piece of hardware knowing full well that doesn’t work the way you want it to and then bitching that it doesn’t work the way you want it to
For great justice, you must
use rust and zig
Technically true but I wouldn’t suggest using a self signed cert on the internet under any circumstances.
Absolutely do not expose your server on port 80. Http is unencrypted, you’d be sending your login credentials in plaintext across the open internet. That is Very Bad™. If you own a domain name, you can set up a letsencypt cert fairly easily for free. Then you could expose 443 and at least your traffic will be encrypted in transit. It won’t solve the other potential issues of exposing your instance like brute force or ddos attacks, but I’d consider it a bare minimum.
If you use a VPN like many others are suggesting it won’t matter as much because the unencrypted traffic never leaves your local network.
Wireguard installation is going to be much more secure than a Nextcloud
I understand that, and it’s a good suggestion and a better solution if it fits the OPs use case. I don’t understand suggesting they do both. Either VPN or port forwarding solve the problem, doing both seems unnecessary.
before you start forwarding ports on your router
Don’t you mean instead of? If all the OP wants to do is access next cloud, they can do it over the VPN without forwarding ports. What you’re suggesting doesn’t solve the problem of port 80 being an attack vector, and adds yet another attack vector (the VPN itself)
It ruins my joke about the overly verbose commands though
Just use the List-And-Display-Available-Relevant-Commands-Formatted-As-Table commandlet. Couldn’t be easier.
It’s possible. Rough estimate about 226 million people have Nigerian grandmas.
If my ISP ordered a drone strike on a doctor’s without borders hospital I’d absolutely stop using them. Would you not? Is that no big deal to you?
That’s not an effective metric because you don’t know the network speed of the host that the user was downloading from. It’s impossible to tell if the network is slow, or the site they visited was throttled to .5mb. speed tests work because the server you’re downloading from is a known entity
