Sigh…
It does look a lot like Logseq, but at least it’s not written in Clojure. Looks like an interesting project and hopefully it’ll mature to something better than Logseq 👍
Then, you should be dandy. An alternative might be OVH? They don’t have a sale right now though.
Just don’t do anything with P2P on it. They really dislike that.
Check https://whatismyipaddress.com/ to see your IP address once you’re connected to either network, but with a high likelihood, it’s almost certainly different IPs. In that case, Dynamic DNS is probably best.
But if you’re using your neighbor’s wifi, I doubt there’s a way for you to host stuff unless you have access to their routers, can open ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS), and forward them to your server. It’s best to use hardware you control (including the router).
I was where you are too and 2$/month or even per year seemed crazy to me if I could get it for free
If you’re at home and want to point to your home IP, but it constantly changes, the easiest is Dynamic DNS.
You can find more.
If you have a stable IP, there also free top level domains .TK / .ML / .GA / .CF / .GQ over at https://www.freenom.com/ . Their frontend is down sometimes, but once you have a domain and are point it to an IP, you should be dandy.
Good luck :)
Why not both?
Also, if all projects advertised only the largest platforms, how would small platforms grow?
I’m not sure I understand your thoughts on p2p archive.org . What does it have to do with NSFW lemmy? I don’t follow.
I can imagine that news orgs won’t like having publicly available backups of their subscriber only content. Is this a problem that has been considered?
Also, somewhat related, are the plans to turn this a little bit into a P2P archive.org? I mean, if multiple people store snapshots of webpages at different times, the timeline could be rebuilt using their publicly available snapshots.
By that logic, why are you on lemmy?
I wish there were an alternative in a sane programming language that I could actually contribute to. For some reason PHP is extremely sparse in its logging and errors mostly only pop up on the frontend. Having to debug errors after an update and following some guide to edit a file in the live env that sets a debugging variable, puts the system in maintenance mode and stores additional state in the DB is scary.
Plus PHP is so friggin slow. Nextcloud takes noticeable time to load nearly anything. Even instances hosted by pros that only host nextcloud are just slow.
Oh, I thought you had multiple machines.
I use docker because each service I use requires different libraries with different versions. With containers, that doesn’t matter. It also provides some rudimentary security. If an attacker gets in, they’ll have to break out of the container first to get at the rest of the system. Each container can run with a different user, so even if they do get out of the container, at worst they’ll be able to destroy the data they have access to - well, they’ll still see other stuff in the network, but I think it’s better than being straight pwned.
Why wouldn’t you want to use containers? I’m curious. What do you use now? Ansible? Puppet? Chef?
Fair. NixOS isn’t for everybody.
I’m not sure what you mean by tunnel, but SSH allows a “secure shell” aka an encrypted connection to a shell on a device. Tailscale, Headscale, and others are VPNs, which means they allow making it seem as if your computer is in the same (private) network as that of the server - but in order to have a shell on the server, you’ll still need SSH.
To my knowledge, adding a VPN to open a secure shell on the server is unnecessary and has no security benefits.
I detect a NixOS shill 😛
Seriously though, if OP doesn’t want to use another OS, I can recommend using Ansible.
Why so complicated? Why not just SSH? Put it on some random port, make it public key login only, and you’re done.
Hold on… owncloud is in go? I have much higher hopes for that. PHP is terrible, even to manage.
There’s also rootless docker. There shouldn’t be any more firewall shenanigans.
