I don’t recommend Oracle at all if you value your sanity. Paying a couple bucks a month for DigitalOcean or Vultr (or probably almost anything else) is so worth it compared to dealing with that monstrosity
Also, I’ve experienced this, and I’ve heard reports of others having the same issue; Oracle might just randomly delete/disable your VPS
I’m using Mullvad through Tailscale now. Works OK. I think Proton has a free plan
This is just great! Tailscale is doing ALL the right things it seems. So happy to try this out
I think it was OpenWRT
Nano (or pico). I had to use vi one time 😭
https://njal.la is good in my experience
This is a dream come true. Also it’s not working at all for me but I imagine they’ll work out the kinks over the next few weeks
I’ve been using MouseCape on macOS for years and it’s worked flawlessly
Tailscale is great but I find it non trivial to run in conjunction with another VPN (Mullvad). Anyone have experience with this? Seems I can have only one or the other for iOS or macOS
Is public key authentication not good enough? Tailscale is cool but can be tedious if you also use other VPNs
Is it possible to migrate a community from one instance to another?
It was slow to boot and slow over ssh.
I found that booting and connecting over SSH went way faster once I got a better SD card. Running an install script that took half an hour was down to just a couple minutes
DuckDNS is great, but you only need it if you have a dynamic IP. It’s worth checking if you have a static public IP before adding another layer of complexity.
and I always advice to not use a different party for nameservers than the party that registered the domain.
Why is that? I register most of my domains at Porkbun, but I usually use Cloudflare’s nameservers as they seem to support more record types, have more features, and have a better UI than most registrars’ offerings.
I’ve had success with PowerDNS (PDNS). I like that it comes with a HTTP API and it’s got integrations with Caddy and other ACME clients if you need that.
You can also add this to the control center for easy access.
Arc and Orion are the best browsers I’ve used. GNOME Web looks nice, too.
No one has mentioned Njalla. I haven’t used their server offerings, but they are probably the best for privacy.
