 Yup, at home and at my businesses. Self custody is super important. 
 Have they set up https yet for login?  Talking about the Umbrel Home box that they sell for $399. 
 Not natively. Local (same network) login and via Tor, if the user enables it. Or via VPN’ing to the network. A reverse proxy would probably suffice. Small lighting nodes and regular sweeps to cold wallet. It’s effective and convenient.  I flashed a microSD and threw it in a RPi 4 I have. 
 Yes that works!  I don't know why they don't just add https.  People have been asking a long time and they said they were going to update to it by now.  They have all kinds of excuses but it would be easy to do. 
 I could be mistaken, but I think it has to do with the way they use tor to access the umbrel panel. It’s been a while since I’ve looked it up, but I agree that’s a glaring omission. 
 Yes and they know it is why they say they are to set https any day now.
