It should be not part of Lemmy's server side code. Actually even integrating current image support is ill advised. It should have been an optional microservice.

There are plenty of third party tools to do that securely, and even cheaper. Putting insecure, leaky shit on your network for the sake of convenience...

We are using a Garmin in our Mitsubishi ASX rather than the built-in navi, probably a custom TomTom. Bluetooth is largely useless and buggy.

I would have bought a used Lada if it was just for me.
