Check out orangewebsite, they are from Iceland and are pretty private. Ive been using them for around 4 years and have had no issues!
p.s. I only use their domain registration service and not the hosting, so I cannot comment on that.
I would rather just making a wireguard vpn and having control of my data, but privacy might not be his concern.
+1 for Deemix. ARLs are easy to find and the metadata is flawless for the 1-200 or so songs I have.
https://esc.sh/projects/devops-from-scratch/ is a good resource. Most questions you have (that are more specific) are easily searchable on the internet.
ways to safely connect to home servers over the internet while away A couple methods include :
when it may be better to spin up services on a VPS instead
Most services you probably won’t need a VPS to do, but off the top of my head a couple services which would be better hosted (not saying self-hosting them on your own hardware is bad) would be services which proxy a service. Example SearxNG, Invidious, Proxitok, etc. This is so that traffic can be shared among multiple users, and not linked back to your home IP.
Really like homepage. Simple to install, easy to modify and “beautify”; though it’s barely used in my household since my family only cares about Jellyfish and nothing else…
To connect via a domain name I would recommend using a VPS as a reverse proxy to your server. This is easily done by initiating a Wireguard connection to the VPS, then connecting to your home server via the domain which points to the VPS’s ip. Quick google search got me this.
And for wolfgang’s blog, all he’s doing is setting up NPM then pointing Nextcloud’s ip+port to his domain name (which is a DuckDNS). For truenas scale I found this, which basically says that Traefik is a better reverse proxy for scale.
Note: I have not used TrueNAS Scale at all, so take my info with a grain of salt. I personally feel as if using Proxmox and then making 1x TrueNAS Core and 1x Linux containers would be easier, but I digress. Let me know if you have questions.
No, you’re right, it does not sync. Usually I do this on longer durations without internet, else I just use a webapp (on mobile) or the website on PC.
I honestly prefer Kavita even though I do not download comics or manga. Their reader is so nice, specially with the themes. 0 issues on my end except for indexing, which the dev promptly fixed after I reported the issue.
I use Moon+ Reader pro on my android, and on my iOS I simply make a “webapp” of the website.
I would recommend trying different skins for Kodi, was a game changer for me.
I used to use Kavita for ebooks and it was a pain to organize them. I usually just dump a bunch of .epubs into books directory, but it only recognizes books INSIDE of a folder. So, I just made a script to create a folder using the exact name and put the epub in it.
Had this happen to me and I lost all my servers data, but regardless of a sever it keeps a local file which I imported to my new homelab
This was me when I started my journey; looking everywhere for anything that might peak an interest. Now that I’ve setup basically everything I wanted, the only time that I get something new is when I get curious and wonder if x can be self hosted.
Holy shit this is going to help me out! Thank you so fucking much man, definitely saved my ass more than once! Lol.
Side note : The photo embeds are amazing on Lemmy, idk if it’s just me but I way prefer it to Reddit.
Did you have a stroke commenting this 4 times? lol
Get a .ca domain (assuming you’re Canadian), it’s the same price as a .com and the prices don’t change much since they’re controlled majorly by the govt.
