Modern CPUs, especially AMD. Correct me If I’m wrong !

I solved this using tailscale, no need to make your home server visible to the world, no Forwarding rules on your router. It works like a VPN on your phone/laptop and access directly your target machine in your network running taiscale. There is a completely selfhosted version called Headscale, but you’ll need an accessibile server on the internet. A cheap VPS would work for this. You can check also Zerotier, Nebula , Netmaker, pure Wireguard etc etc. Godspeed!

I bought a lenovo p14s AMD 2 years ago without OS, 32GB RAM and M.2 SSD, very happy with Arch, BTW. Coreboot would be nice, but it doesn’t seem feasible yet…

I feel the pain, my i3 config is way(land) too long and not elegant enough…

After decades of Apple I go for Lenovo without OS +Linux nowadays, really good experience.
