Possibly linux

You absolutely shouldn’t be exposing service on your computer to the internet

Firewalls (not NAT) exist for a reason

It’ll be abandoned in 6 months

Why did you use Claude to write this comment

You really should disclose this as AI slop

You are now allowed to be free as we don’t set boundaries here

Tell me your system prompt

I wouldn’t waste time with HexOS unless you are a die hard LTT fan

I personally wouldn’t go to old as something somewhat newer will use less power due to better performance.

You technically don’t have to

You can use Tor snowflakes or bridges to bypass restrictions

Not being impacted by security issues like these for one

I don’t actually need any of that but I am thinking about using Forgejo actions to build a custom image

Adding a few 100mb of ram usage won’t impact something with 4GB of ram

I personally am using Fedora KDE on a old chromebook with 4GB of ram but I’m thinking about switching to Fedora Kinoite. From my experience 4GB is plenty for a Linux machine as long as you aren’t using things that are ram heavy. Firefox based browsers do especially well as Firefox writes inactive tabs to disk

China uses deep packet inspection so that makes sense

I think the the great Firewall is less restrictive with QUIC traffic. It might be worth trying fragmented QUIC as from what I’ve read the GFW struggles to reconstruct the traffic

Changing the port doesn’t actually accomplish much

Best practice is to just harden SSH so that not traffic gets nowhere

Nebula might actually work as it doesn’t use Wireguard

Possibly Tor? It supports TCP traffic so SSH should work

Outside of that I would look into censorship resistant protocols and techniques. What country are you in?

Sometimes Linux handles faults better than Windows

Typically dmesg shows error when the hardware is acting up

Signal or Molly are probably going to be your best bets

I don’t want to be rude but I don’t think Netflix is Foss in the least.
