Router Port vs VPS Reverse Proxy

„Inspired“ from https://lemmy.world/post/287146 and many related questions (also on reddit before).

Why don‘t people like opening Port 443 on their Homerouter? An open Port itself is not a vulnerability because nothing is listening on it, therefore there cannot be any connection established. When forwarding Port 443 From Router to e.g. The Homeservers LoadBalancer / Proxy, this Proxy is the final resolver anyways.

So why doing the more complex and more error prone Route via the VPS / Tailscale / CloudFlare?

I did that some years ago too, but just because i did not have an static IPv4 at home. But speeds were awful and i switched to Routerport + DynDNS and now everything is super performant.

Federated/defederated instances map
  • I am nor aware of an Map. But on the bottom of your website is a „Instances“ Link which shows all Instances yours is connected to.

    EDIT: At least on Lemmy… Just saw that you are from kbin :)

  • This is why a backup strategy is only as good as the tested restore procedure!

    But i agree - same was for me (years ago) with restic and minio S3.

    Since then, i restore a full backup once or twice a year to a second machine to test it

    „Subscribe Pending“ for lemmy.ml communities

    Hi, I am running my own instance and generally federation works (especially with e.g. lemmy.world).

    But for every lemmy.ml community i tried, I am stuck with „subscribe pending“. Interesting is, that I able to see the latest posts mostly (and they continue to do so) but i cannot see most comments or votes (still, some are visible).

    What is going on here an how can i fix it?

    My instance is also listed on the lemmy.ml linked instance list.

    Umweltschutz: EU beschließt Ende verklebter Akkus
  • Die sind ja auch Ausgeburten der Hölle!

    Bei Mobilen Endgeräten kann ich es irgendwie nachvollziehen, Akkus platzsparend zu verkleben um Gewicht und Formfaktor gering zu halten und damit die Portabilität zu erhöhen.

    Aber diese Einwegvapes sind das umweltfreundlichste, was mir je untergekommen ist.
