That doesn’t seem to be appropriate for a specific domain. Unless I’m reading it wrong.
We need to expose the Ghost blog on a specific subdomain of the domain we own ( blog.ourdomain.org )
doesn’t Tailscale Funnel assign a funky domain name rather than let you use your own?
Hi, I’m using Docker - one container for Ghost and one for Nginx Proxy Manager.
I’ve decided to go with DDNS but am having trouble choosing a reliable free provider. I’ve seen Dynu.com recommended but that is not available in the dropdown list of servers in my router’s section on DDNS. Is that relevant?
Or would I just ignore the router settings and set it up some other way?
Wouldn’t that be just for me - in my Tailnet - rather than to the general public?
You can use Tailscale to access your stuff from outside the house.
There’s also a self hosted open source alternative but I’ve forgotten what it’s called.
yeah fair play - I’ll go that route. Do you happen to know any content creators who explain stuff well in this area?
(Context - our self-hosting is part of a wider project to make self-hosting easier, on the cheap, for normies)
Does anyone know of a short course I could do/attend that teaches the basics of this networking stuff?
I was going to use Cloudflare to sort this, but I’m uncomfortable how big they are getting / lack of competition in that part of the market. So we looked at Pangolin as an alternative, but it’s a faff to self host.
Hence why we’re back at exposing it straight out the back of Nginx Proxy Manager.
My router says it has NAT enabled (in the WAN settings section - for the internet connection)
Thank you for your replies everyone!
I’m looking into DDNS. Before I go with a provider, I notice that my router has this functionality built in. Should I use that?
(It’s an Asus RT-AX86U Pro - so fairly chunky in terms of spec)
For reference, the set up is:
Docker containers for
As long as software is available in the Software Manager to be installed that way… I don’t care what format it’s in.
But don’t make normies go to the terminal. It’s inhumane, and really does not help the masses get away from big tech - which is a worthier goal than keeping your software terminal-only.
They don’t have to be, as far as I understand it. I’ve installed a few websites as apps on my phone (because their app had trackers in it) and they can work really well. Examples are Bluesky and Flipboard.
An example where I agree with you is LinkedIn - installed as a web app due to trackers - but they know this, and the whole point of their app is to get you with Facebook and Microsoft trackers, so they make the web app experience miserable on purpose.
But (and correct me if I’m wrong) a PWA made by a non-surveillance capitalist could be just as good as a native app.
Valid. Except on some browsers e.g. Vivaldi you can put sites on a list that retain their cookies even when you clear the rest.
Why not a PWA?
It says “Payments are made after exchanging existing money into electronic money with the help of an Exchange service, that is, a payment service provider for Taler.”
Do they say anywhere who that payment service provider is? And are there options for who to use?
What is the relationship of fiat currency to tokens? is it €1:1 token?
I thought that I would need Yunohost to take care of all the web hosting stuff in the back ground…? Are you saying to just push files into the VPS barebones, or into Yunohosts website app shell? (Sorry I’m new to VPS stuff).
And how would you push the files from Codeberg? what is the method?
If I host a website on Yunohost can I push the files from Codeberg to it using git?
Does anyone know if you can deploy files to Yunohost using Git? Or via a url from a git repository?
I’d like to host a website using Yunohost, and push the files to it from Codeberg.
lol I thought this was a guerrilla IT warfare post where you snuck in and did it, but you actually did it with permission… 😂
If I install ddclient on my mini-pc is that what you mean by having a server with ddclient?
My Asus router is not shown in their docs as supported - does that matter?
Also - can I just keep using my current domain name registrar, and not use Cloudflare?
