  • I could see that and I’ll graciously accept it if it happens.

    That’s about all you can do. To me, if you are a selfhoster with an equipment question, who better to ask than selfhosters who utilize the same equipment. The absence of very active Lemmy instances dictates that equipment questions will get funneled to the most active communities. I had one deleted yesterday. No worries, it all got sorted out and I did get my question answered thanks to some very patient and knowledgeable users.

    I understand the concept, free search engines aren’t free, but I’m just not there yet enough to pay for a search engine. I don’t have ads on my network period, haven’t in decades. I also filter heavily through pFsense and other means. So, while I am admittedly still contributing somewhat to a major search engine, at the very least I have still retained most of my data, and search results must be selected with prudence.





  • Tailscale is a VPN (Virtual Private Network) which is different than a VPS (Virtual Private Server).

    ETA: Oops. I see your question has been answered multiple times. It seems you are a beginner at selfhosting and trying to get a grip on what’s necessary to start and trying to wrap your brain around all the acronyms. There is absolutely no shame in being a beginner. Everyone in this community was a beginner at some point in their life. So, don’t be bashful about asking questions. I’ve found the folks here to be patient and helpful.
