I would love to donate to ublock origin but the dev actively doesn’t want money

I was going to get proxmox myself but decided to go the debian13 route instead. I heard proxmox is like pseudo open source and kernel diverges a bit from the Linux kernel. Anyway, whatever the case, I’m happy on debian

I use safereddit.com now, it’s unfortunate I can’t access old reddit. New reddit is safer my ass

I keep thinking to myself whether $5/mo or buying a firewall and attempting to achieve the same thing is a better idea

Fortunately, I’m grandfathered in to proton’s old plan so I’m holding this thing for life

Epic. You probably don’t use the admin interface too much right? Probably just configure your reverse proxy a leave it. Gonna rent a vps here in the states.

That sounds perfect, I might go with ovh, how do you like them? The $4.54/mo plan looks cool

How do you set up security on your server with the constant attacks that come with having the server public?

I also have a synology but my old gaming laptop does video transcoding better so I have it on debian right now and am figuring out the best set up to access it and self host services to access publicly

Is there a data cap? I’m concerned like they only allow me to pass through like a TB or so of data passing through it within a month. If you have users watching your jellyfin server every day that can surpass your limit.

I’m on graphene and I don’t have it even with gsf and google play stuff installed

I resonate with you as well, so what kind of set up do you use now?

That’s crazy cheap price. Does it really have enough bandwidth to stream jellyfin?

Publicly to the world. For example, I wanted to self host temporary file sharing and temporary link shortener to the world. Stuff like jellyfin I would have that public but only specific users would have the credentials to log in.

I have seen netbird pop around every now and again. I might try out their cloud free version first and if I like it I might try self hosting it.

So you host netbird on a vps you rent and that is used for reverse proxy? So with that reverse proxy I can have my home server be publicly accessible and I can have friends log in to my jellyfin server without having to connect to my tailnet.

My last concern is security. How is this set up good for making sure I don’t just get constantly botted and exploited?

What’s a cheap vps you recommend?

Yeah but my main concern is security. If I publicly have services like jellyfin or something then I would think I would have constant exploits and bot attacks

My server is at home

Ways to Expose Services Publicly

I want to expose my services publicly on my own domain name, how would you guys do that?

I have seen people using Cloudflare, but I don’t want to use Cloudflare out of principle. I have also seen stuff on caddy and frp that I’ve done some rough researching.

What do you guys do?

Funny that I have it the other way around. My entire fam on Signal and few (only close) friends on here
