2·2 years agoI did attempt it a bit but I was having issues. Definitely the way I’m trying to go though!
I’m wondering how it goes with online game for instance (wouldn’t it be a no-go for many casual users?
I’ve wondered the same honestly. I’m able to connect to servers, never been an issue, but if I want to host my own game server it’s only available locally and no ports are ever exposed (understandably, since they don’t exist lol). Been a real hassle that’s for sure!
I’d be interested in a networking section. My biggest hurdle in self-hosting is that my ISP uses CG/NAT, so no port forwarding. This has made even simple applications difficult to set up. It seems the easiest workaround is to set them up through a domain, which I’ve tried and had no luck with. A mix of not my forte and there being few straightforward guides.
What’s promising about it? I looked through the website but didn’t see much other than that I could install it or buy a computer from them.
I’d be interested solely if I meant I had to do less networking lol
Previously by color/occupation.
Red Desktop, Music Workstation.
Been thinking themes more recently though. WolvesDen for my server, thinking of expanding on that some.
Ah good, I’ve been looking for something better than Waifu2x. Thanks!
Seems like the only option for something that can be on a multipurpose PC.
Set up your folders, get your devices synced, and it pretty much sorts itself from there.
I’ve had minor temporary issues with Syncthing, nothing that hasn’t been fixed quickly (and have yet to had them happen again).
Great for music and photos between PC and phone and for transfers between music production PC and gaming PC. Better than Dropbox and GDrive for most purposes (lacking support for online link sharing, which isn’t very important)
Power, Domain Name (if using a standard paid one instead of the cheaper route), VPN are the 3 that I pay for that I feel are the bare minimum.
I pay for a domain that’s $12, but you could easily get the $1 ones for the same purposes. I pay for a static and service VPN with Windscribe, which comes out to be like $35+$89 respectively. So that’s already $136 a year excluding the cost of power. I could cut that cost easily, but I use them for more than just my selfhosting so I feel like it’s a fair price for what I get out of it.
