My Arch Linux Homeserver and VPS which ran since years are like: “huh?”

Not a single Ubuntu upgrade failure on my book anymore 🤞

.zip is already a thing

on linux it is probably easier to setup podman nowadays with Podman Desktop and being easily available in most repositories while Docker never released their Desktop app on Linux

on anything else Docker is the least path of resistence currently but who knows if they fuck up again in the future

yea also custom domain with catch-all + custom rules on mailbox.org is hilariously powerful and allow you to use an own email address + its own folder for every website without actually creating any alias beforehand

I also have a hard time understanding how 2,5€ a month is to expensive for someone who most likely owns Apple devices since iCloud is really awful to use without at least one Apple device

If you expose ports on IPv4 or IPv6 (port forwarding) anyone can access the service behind these ports if they know your address but so do you too

yes just like with a static IPv4

This year I started using DynDNS with only my IPv6 address since IPv4 is behind CGNAT and it actually works quite well nowadays

something to keep in mind is that both WSL2 and Linux container on Docker Windows use virtual machines
these come with a drawback of additional overhead or cheaper hosted VPS don’t allow to nest virtual machines inside their cheap ones

Probably the odd one here with Arch Linux + docker compose with still a lot of manual labor
updating it after maximum 4 weeks is enough, container more often
