Hopefully this is not too long! There has been a lot of changes since the last time I posted a full overview like this

    Question. I have a home network that’s more advanced than your typical house. I started holding back though as I figured when I die my family won’t have a clue about all the stuff I have setup. Do you guys ever think about this? I’d hate to leave behind a nightmare for my family members to remove and replace with a regular ISP provided router.

      I’ve thought about it, and nobody will care about your/my elaborate setup after we are gone. It will just be replaced by a ISP router without regrets.

      I’ve thought about that a lot. I don’t know whether to try to type up a manual of how everything works or just leave instructions on how to revert to a more basic setup. Either way I think my family would struggle.

      Also thought about that a lot. The most important is that your people can access your data. My partner and bestie both have LUKS keys on all of my devices.

      Maybe do a test run with them to see if they can actually access it.

        Got it, sharing the password to my obscure furry midget porn collection with my people

      I have Bitwarden set to give my wife access if she requests it and I don’t respond in X days

      Things generally “just work” so she would have access to everything, and she can figure out what she wants to do. All the passwords are there and all of the configs are fairly easy for stuff she cares about anyway
