Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Yeah, unfortunately it's a huge barrier if you're wanting to see why your devices are phoning home and the data being sent. It makes it extremely difficult if not impossible for most people to bypass.
I understand. What other methods would you suggest to be able to snoop on/decrypt the traffic from my device?
Specifically for attempting to bypass certificate pinning you're solidly in the realm of reverse engineering. I haven't attempting it myself but I have read the efforts of others over the years and the process was quite evolved and ever changing. If you are interested in going down this rabbit hole you may use these links as starting points but be prepared to adapt them.

Best of luck.
Thanks, I had heard of frida before, but never tried it. I'll save this comment, many thanks for the pointers!
