This meme is about github.

No, it's inside the network. Once I'm inside my network via the VPN, the proxy server routes to the service I want based on the subdomain instead of using the IP and port as the address.

This can also be useful if, instead of going the VPN route, and you choose to go the CDN tunnel (for example, Cloudflare) way. I actually started with a tunnel via Cloudflare, but after some digging, I don't trust them anymore. Having a tunnel allows you to close all ports coming into your network, but at the expense of having to trust the tunnel provider, and I don't trust many companies out there.

A fixed IP does make things easier at first, but I fail to see the value on that for personal use. Nothing a reverse proxy and DDNS can't replace.

I purchased a domain, use dynamic DNS for it, and point my sub domains to an NGINX proxy server that handles where each points to.

Nothing has access to anything in my network from the internet (all ports are closed on my PFSense), other than Wireguard, and I just VPN into my network when I'm not home.

It was scary when I started, but figured it out in a couple of days. Take into consideration that I'm not even mildly smart, so it should be fairly easy for anyone.

Get into forums, ask around, watch tutorials, you'll be up and running in no time.

Good luck.

Aptitude is the one thing Debian based distros have that beat the rest.

I would totally try a kernel update, even if it meant uxing zen kernel. Older kernels is one of the reasons why I stay away from Mint and Zorin.

Thanks. Seems like I still don't know everything about using Lemmy. I appreciate the tip.

On Linux KDE you just add your instance and login account to online accounts, and it gives you files, contacts and calendar. On Mac, sorry, no idea.

How hard is it for you to install a different distro? That's how hard.

First things first, for what platform(s) y or OS(s)?

Thanks to everyone that tried to guide me.

Quick update: For some weird reason, it's not happening anymore. I ran a dnf update out of habit on it last night when we were going to bed, and completely neglected testing it. Today she suspended it to go out, and when she came back, it just woke up, entered her password, and both monitors were working.

May have been I updated the kernel, but I honestly don't remember if it even asked to restart to update,so,maybe it wasn't? I'm confused, but happy that she never even mentioned windows, so it seems like she's staying on this side of smart.

I think that the last time I used Ubuntu was like 10+ years ago. Too many awesome distros out there to remain on it, and even then, it was already broken.
