If you use IPv6 globally routable addresses for your services you can avoid all split horizon DNS, NAT, hairpin, etc. With the magic of IP routing and maybe some custom wireguard route advertisements your packets will go through the shortest path wherever your client hosts are.

Metro series games use bullets as a currency. Theyre small, not easily produceable in the setting, and have inherent value (you can shoot your money at enemies). Great design.

+1!!

I found this guide very inspiring: https://melonking.net/thoughts/lets-make

It focuses on the creativity and self-creation aspect of writing your own websites. The site is quirky but also geniune.

If you drop the "from anywhere" part, you can set up a pihole with a static address that you can use from within your LAN, without any involvement from your ISP.

Read section "Assign your Raspberry Pi a static IP address" of https://www.raspberrypi.com/tutorials/running-pi-hole-on-a-raspberry-pi/

I miss the "good web".

We can contribute to making a part of it good again with one of these kinds of sites.

I did my part! It is a fun experience. No JS. No CDN. With a webring.

Thanks for your experience.

It seems a common reason to set up a frontend is for family use. I suppose that is a logical extension of designing a system for its users - if someone wants to use it a certain way, they get to use it that way.

What are your reasons? Discovery / searching?

Nice! Thank you for sharing your experience. :)

How did you get your NAS to know when it was being used?

[–] Wolfizen@pawb.social 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I'm a fan of simplicity.

Which software do you use to run your NAS? I have TrueNAS scale.

No TV, yes spouse. She prefers playing media from the network folder just like me.
