Bitwarden, Adguard-Home/NextDNS, UBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Disable Flash, LocalCDN(Replacing Decentraleyes), Selfthosted Paperless-ng and Nextcloud instances for storage and documents with seperate accounts for each family member secured behind authelia with 2FA. Docker-Mail-Server instance with catchall emails for each family member. Enabled 2FA for every sensitive account. Private Selfthosted Wireguard tunnel to access local network services publically (behind a CGNAT network). Non technical family members have been instructed to never use real names while signing up for trivial services online. Guacamole to provide remote assistance when required.

>LocalCDN(Replacing Decentraleyes),

I am sure this isn't the first time the idea has popped up.

Should LocalCDN be a built-in feature in Browser?

Ideally, going by the cancerous nature of the internet in 2021, web browsers should ship with ublock origin, automatic https upgrades, an usable js-blocking toggle and LocalCDN-esque features out of the box. Chrome would never do something like that but maybe firefox could. Improves privacy and usability overall.
