You're probably behind a CGNAT, check out the other comments
Glad I could help :)
Your ISP might make you go through another layer of NAT. Can you find the WAN IP address of your router and compare it to your public IP address from a website such as ipinfo.io ?
If they do not match, you're probably out of luck and will need to forward your port from an actually public IP in order to achieve what you want
More details : CGNAT (Carrier Grade Network Address Translation) is basically a second router between your router and the public internet. This second router is configured in the same way as your personal one, the main difference being that your ISP fully manages it. From the viewpoint of this second router, your WAN IP is a private IP, and you share one actual public IP with several other customers (the same way all devices on you LAN share one single WAN IP)
Performing port forwarding from the public internet to your LAN, when behind a CGNAT, would require you to be able to configure a forwarding rule in the ISP's NAT, which you usually cannot do.
Something's odd with the numbers from fediverse observer. Numbers shown in monthly graphs should be about 30 times higher than numbers shown in daily graphs, but they are about the same
Recently, 2 different user agents started scraping my Lemmy instance at nearly the same time : AmazonBot and ClaudeBot
I wonder if (and how) it may be related to this headline
A blog post I wrote got shared there a while back, but I did not ask for an invite back then. 2 years later, and I don't feel legitimate to ask for an invite anymore
I've considered it and ruled it out. That's why I'm specifically asking for a VPS to install my own VPN own.
I'm really not interested in paying 5+€/month when I can build my own for a fraction of that cost
