How recent is your experience with Mikrotik? How old is the hardware you tried out?

Is them seeing it coming relevant to this discussion? Are you suggesting everyone evacuate and abandon “shitholes like Oklahoma”?

Yeah, i see that. I guess I’m just lucky then. I mean there’s this one survey company that nags ppl, but you block their one number or ask them to leave you alone and that’s it. And the boring sellers always get flagged by Google so that’s filtered out automatically. Basically, whenever my phone rings, it’s for me personally and it’s a call I’d want to take.

I’m guessing the mass here is from USA. People from EU, where regulations work better, what’s your opinion on this?

What if they make it illegal and jail people whose messages they can’t open?

Apple didn’t want to change either hehe

This. Also, make sure the proxy is proxying websocket traffic as well. I do it with pure nginx like this:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://192.168.1.100:8123/;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

        # WebSocket support
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    }
}
