- layer8 1y agoNot really that much harder, if it’s only for personal use.
- Gud 1y agoNot really. But sure didn’t get easier. Entropy and all that.
- anon7000 1y agoSelf hosting is so much easier than before, though. Tools like docker and Tailscale make operating servers and using VPNs pretty painless. Routing to your home address could be hard, but it’s also pretty easy and cheap to set up a reverse proxy from a server you can rent. Routing through a public CDN is also easy and cheap and solves a lot of problems like DDoS.
