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?


What’s a cheap vps you recommend?
I hop around a lot. I’ve used Akamai (fka linode), Vultr, DigitalOcean, AWS EC2, and GCP Compute Engine. I wouldn’t recommend the last 2 anymore because fuck big tech. A lot of people will mention Oracle’s free tier, but I don’t trust anyone that looks like Larry Ellison to own a machine with a direct connection into my local network.
I resonate with you as well, so what kind of set up do you use now?
Look into Oracle cloud’s Always Free tier of cloud instances. I have a few of those and they’re decent for free.
I use a cheap racknerd vps via low end box. $12/yr.
That’s crazy cheap price. Does it really have enough bandwidth to stream jellyfin?
Linode has a $5/month option.
@TheRedSpade @pineapplelover Linode got acquired by Akamai and their service (or at least, *my* VPS) has really gone downhill over the past few years.
Oracle has a free tier where I run my Wireguard.
