Ah my bad mate, I didn’t notice you were the same person and the way you wrote your reply made me think you misunderstood the advantages of each and we’re recommending to use ublock only

At first I tried some self hosted solutions but I didn’t like anything, eventually I landed on ente.io/ which I really like.

It has a lot of ways to import your photos, really nice mobile and pc (windows, Linux, and Mac) apps that can automatically upload your pictures in the background, the devs are really responsive (there was a bug with one of the importers so I opened a ticket and I got a lot of help in order to debug the issue and solve it).

The only thing that I don’t love is that while the clients are all open source, the back end isn’t because they claim they are too small of a team to keep it both open source and secure.

Exactly, I can barely maintain a media server I really don’t want to be responsible for my passwords and photos. There are secure alternatives that are private and open enough for my needs…

You are not wrong, but uBlock needs to be installed on each device and only works on the browser, while pihole blocks adds across the whole network for all devices.

I have pihole but still use ublock on my personal computer

This is already happening though and it’s somewhat understandable.
Gpt4 is locked behind a pay wall, and there are a lot of companies that offer twicked versions for specific uses for a price.

Considering the server space, filtering, and training this thing takes, asking for some fee is almost a given.

On the other hand you have the HuggingFace models that try to create an open source space for AI and I really hope that goes well!
