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.

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 know two. One in my native tongue, and one in english.

Aha! Lucky me, since I am tall I don’t need the person next to me to wake me up, the attendants can simply bang the cart into my leg! (it hurts like a BITCH especially when you’re asleep.)

Guess I am missing out. Lemmy needs to add a spoiler feature lol.

You can edit titles on Lemmy.

“Hippopotomonstroses-quippedaliophobia” hahahaha. props to whoever made that.

I would rather just making a wireguard vpn and having control of my data, but privacy might not be his concern.

This is horrible imo. I personally turned off NSFW since I don’t really care about missing out on gore or the likes.

I’m pretty similar to you. Not much interest in technology, I already do it so often during my day-to-day that any more turns me over my breaking point. The main communities I am subscribed to are either picture-related or food-related, hope you can find what you enjoy!

+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 :

• Installing Wireguard on the host machine
• Reverse-proxying with a VPS
• Cloudflare zero-trust tunnel

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.

I do go back to Reddit once in a while to use the communities that either aren’t here or are dead here. But yeah, way lower Reddit usage is a win in my books

Snatching this for the future 😘

If only lemmy.world would invest into something like stormwall, ddos-guard or nexuspipe. Cloudflare is complete dogshit against most modern ddos attacks (unfortunately).

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.
