Up and down. Actually lots of things are falling into place, and a few "end points reached" are proving to be... just new starting points.

What to say, need to get my knee in order tough. After last marathon it is still giving me issues and i am fed up to wait and want to go back running....

I think you have it backward. Notifications come from your email client after it polls the email server. So you need an email client on your android device that checks the server.

No need to self-host anything, unless you want to self-host your own email server, something that (while doable) is NOT to be taken lightly and will undounbtely lead to difficulties and lots of hiccups down the road.

I am currently self-hosting my email server (bee, doing for almost 20y) but not at home and absolutely can confirm it's very complex to setup properly.

Thank you, might take a look into it as well, but for the time being Lemmy seems to be working fine on my home server (not an underpowered VPS indeed, but not an enterprise-grade server either)

will do immediately! Thanks!

If that would be so simple... Are you a billionaire? In that case, it would make things MUCH easier.... :) Otherwise my wife might want a word....

No, the router being the SPOF (single point of failure) is totally avoidable.

At mny home (no SaaS services offered, but critical "enough" for my life services) i have two different ISPs on two different tecnologies: one is FTTC via copper cable (aka good old ADSL successor) plus a WFA 5G (much faster but with data cap). Those two are connected to one opnSense router (which, indeed, is a SPOF at this time). But you can remove also this SPOF by adding a second opnSense and tie the two in failover.

So the setup would be:

  • FTTC -> ISP1 router -> LAN cable 1 to port 1 of opnSense n.1
  • FTTC -> ISP1 router -> LAN cable 2 to port 1 of opnSense n.2
  • FWA -> ISP2 router -> LAN cable 1 to port 2 of opnSense n.1
  • FWA -> ISP2 router -> LAN cable 2 to port 2 of opnSense n.2

Then in both opnSense i would setup failover multi-WAN and bridge them together so that one diyng will trigger the second one.

edit: fixed small errors

Cool! I am just having a coffee myself!
