I would argue it is much easier now. There are a ton of distributions who are catering for this use case, yunohost is probably the most well known one, but there are a lot more if you look on the awesome selfhosted list.
I would also say that if you only want a static site the OPs setup is almost overkill. Just install caddy and a dyndns service. Takes care of the certificate for you and is super simple to setup.
- francislavoie 4y agoFYI, Caddy has a DDNS plugin https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns. Works with any DNS provider that has a Caddy DNS plugin which you'd typically use to solve ACME challenges, but instead it will set A/AAAA records.
- zephyros 4y agoThis is new to me. I was going to run a separate DDNS for my homeserver, but given that the domain is only used in Caddy anyway, this reduce 1 place to configure stuff. Thanks
- tbran 4y agoThanks for your work on Caddy! Also, for those that don't know, Caddy also automates SSL certs (unlike nginx) and can render markdown files using templates [0]. [0]: https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/templates https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/templates
- the_common_man 4y agoYeah, cloudron is a other distro for this use case.
