The R3 isn’t really powerful enough for that.

On small x86 routers you can install Opnsense or IPfire which come with some non-router software to run a reverse-proxy or so. IP fire also allows to run full VMs, but the more advanced features are pretty limited.

Some people also do the reverse and run a full OS on them and then virtualize Opnsense and directly pass through a NIC to that VM.

Good opsec includes not endangering other people that might have less good opsec. I am personally not at risk because I don’t live in Germany.

That wasn’t me, but in specific cases where multiple accounts are used for ban evasion or similar stuff that can be justified from a moderation perspective.

And if you do such a bad job that it is easy to guess your sockpuppet accounts then that is really a failure in opsec on your side 😅

“Forum” is not that clearly defined, Lemmy can also be called a forum as do many other websites. You are just trying to split hairs because you can’t admit that you spend the last couple of hours making a total ass out of yourself 🤷

This was a public website where multiple people has access to post stories and links 🙄 And they got raided because they linked to another (by then officially forbidden) leftist website that also was a kind of forum to share news stories very similar to Lemmy.

Sorry, but I am tired of you trying to twist words in my mouth, the evidence I provided is clear and you just don’t want to admit that this is a real risk in Germany.

What? It literally says that the private homes of the operators of a public website were raided by police and their communication devices confiscated. LITERALLY! Are you completely unable to read and understand basic texts?

You are just wrong. Try to educate yourself. The rebels in Rhodesia signed an official peace agreement with the old apartheit regime, and there was a formal transition of government. Something similar happened in South Africa with the ANC and there some of the previous rulers retained a political party and their successors are now part of a coalition government with the ANC.

I am not in any way endorsing those horrible apartheit regimes, but you are spouting so much factually incorrect non-sense that it is really pointless to discuss any further. I hope for you will never actually talk to someone from southern Africa about this because it would be incredibly embarrising to show so much ignorance.

You are competely dellusional. I simply pointed out that according to international law Zimbabwe is the legal succesor state to Rhodesia and that formally there was a transition of government.

I am absolutely on your side that Rhodesia was a racist shit apartheit state, but facts are facts…

The irony is so thick. Go back to your troll cave 🙄

You live in some lala land that has no resemblence to reality.

You evidently can’t read. It is much more nuanced than that.

No because you can apparently not read and then accuse others of lying.

No they are there behind the spoiler tag 🙄

I added another link.

Literally in the original post linked above.

That is also explicitly allowed. Are you even reading anything before posting senseless accusations?

That is not the same at all.

There are precedences of public forum admins having their homes raided by police and all communication devices confiscated, yes.

You seriously need to read up on the history of Zimbabwe because that is not what happened.

Yes that has happend before many times. The EU and nearby states like the UK, Norway and Switzerland have a tight integration of the police forces via Europol and regularly exchange such information.
