Honestly a basic VPS is a lot easier to me than running a physical home server. Dirt cheap, never have to worry about power failures, dust, heat, home ISP being shitty, etc.
- JohnFen 4y agoI do both. I run a home server with several services that are used by me when I'm not home, and by my close friends. I also use a VPS for services intended for the general public.
- nubinetwork 4y agoDoing both makes a lot of sense for development as well... you don't want to pay for a VPS for something that isn't going to be developed to completion or run full time, save that for the real projects.
- normaler 4y agoI run vpcs and homeserver I avoid all the DNS and port forwarding issues by having a wireguard Server in obenbsd that also runs unbound, so i habe some internal DNS entrys for stuff i host at home linke Cale der and co tacts
- randomluck040 4y agoI have only a static website with not too much content or traffic, I even use the free oracle VPS that they offer. It took some while to get the hang of ingress rules and opening ports in their interface in addition to the CLI but now it works and I’m not paying anything. Out of curiosity: where do you get your VPS?
