I was just talking about this with a friend since people around us seem to be dropping like flies. What happens to our personal servers and home labs when the worst happens?

I personally don’t care who sees what; compared to most I’m sure I’m vanilla af. 🤣 Enjoy my 20 year music collection, alive people? 😜

But it got me thinking: It would be great to have a self-hosted front end or something where on a login in screen (maybe at auth level like with Authelia), you had an “emergency” option where in we could predetermine what to immediately nuke, and what to either move to a shared cloud folder, offload to a local external drive, or just make available like local file hosting; something like that.

Does anything exist like this? If not, what ideas do you folks have in this regard, or what do you currently do? I feel like this could be a really useful service if done correctly.

    Vaultwarden can send a link to a person of your choosing with all your passwords if you do not login within a certain amount of time. This is key… Mortgage, banks, wifi, email, utilities, credit cards… This list goes on.

    Had a friend pass and his wife could not cancel some things without a death certificate, even then she had a hard time.

      I misunderstood this feature. For some reason the way it was worded, I thought it was more of an “I’m about to die, let me establish this other user with access to my vault”
