I don’t see how. Unless it has, like, 20 predefined stored ads. But even then it might be refreshing in 20 years to see a commercial for Kia. Be like, “Oh yeah! I remember Kia! Man, crazy how long it’s been since Kia’s have been around. Such a bad car.”

Woo!

I do. My gaming PC is also my most capable server.

Bold of you to assume if I own a house I’ll pay any of those.

Wtf am I gonna use credit for? Redo my roof. I’ll put out a bucket.

Feels good to know I’m not the only big rig/bicyclist in the world.

Let them be confused. They’ll learn eventually. Or they won’t. Computers are too user friendly today anyway.

ProtonMail. 100%.

I set up custom DNS and catchall so yourcompanyname@saltycowboy.org is really how I filter spam.

Please note, saltycowboy.org isn’t really my domain.

1. Debian, unless I’m doing something specific like Home Assistant OS
2. Yeah, usually. The GUI uses so much system resources just to sit there and be unused. That said I do have a Windows VM for Quicken that I remote into to manage my families finances. Of course that isn’t headless.

I feel like, at least in this context, it’s unnecessary.

If your in a submarine and OP tries to open the external hatch while submerged, sure call him dumb. If op leaves your baby in a scorpion pit because he thought it’d make the child gain super powers, dumb.

If, however, OP thinks that Google is a valid metric to gage how popular something is. “I disagree with using this as a valid metric and here’s the reasons why.”

No need to call him dumb. This post didn’t hurt or impact you personally. It’s just the original guy who called him dumb really doesn’t like google. Which is fine. Not gonna call him dumb for using duck duck go.

Do you carry all that hate around with you all the time, or are you just making today a special day?

Welp, time to find a new instance.

This is how I get books to my Kindle. So, take that to the bank for what it’s worth.

Second. I used to self-host Bitwarden. Then I realized it’d be too devistating to lose all my passwords, even with backups. So I moved to their cloud service and paid for my families accounts too.

Joplin tho, Joplin stays on the server with no backup. I should really, really make a backup this weekend.

Why does Kirk climb a mountain?

Because it’s there!

I host in the way that you describe: “service.domain.com”. I use Cloudflare, docker, and Caddy.

I don’t remember any pit falls off the top of my head. Make sure to use HTTPS (port 443). Everything on http is basically open for everyone to see. Caddy should set that up for you automatically, tho. I recently moved to Caddy from Traefik, it’s an awesome tool.

Oh, here’s a pitfall. One time I opened a port, #22, for ssh access to my server. I installed fail2ban on my server. One weekend I looked at my logs and found I’d banned hundreds of IP addresses. Some bot found my open port and then begun attacking the login with some kinda rainbow table. I moved the port from the ssh default to something else and never had a problem since.

Also, and this isn’t a requirement but just useful, I set up a VLAN for my selfhosted server. It’s firewalled from my local network. That way, if someone access’ my server they don’t have access to my whole network.

So, tldr, have fun and midigate risk where you can.

I’m reading about Caddy and playing around with it. It seems pretty straightforward. I’ll have to see if I can’t implement it.

This is valuable feedback. In retrospect I didn’t explain my problem at all. I’m really good at reading instructions, pretty poor at asking for help.

I’m going to take another crack at this, after I read up on and learn all about Caddy. At first glance it looks like it takes away a lot of my pain points from Traefik.

As soon as they stop using DRM to force you into a specific ereader ecosystem, you’ll have an argument.

Until then, I’m going to strip the DRM off of a book I buy on Amazon and read it on my Nook. All other parties involved can fuck all the way off.

It works. I wish the counter next to the notification bell would clear after I read the notifications. Instead I have to force close the app to force it to reload.

I’m sure time will make it better tho.
