vFlat is so good! Or at least used to be. Haven’t used it in a few years

Choosing a Git self host server in c/main@selfhosted.forum

If your team is small (or just you), I've been super happy not using any kind of git host and just pushing to a bare repo via SSH.

This is my thought. Occasionally it will think it's a new TLD but for the most part, it will still search and I am sure all of the major search engines assume this is happening.

I pay for a good number of them. Not that I can't self-host alternatives. It is just easier:

  • 1Password
  • OneDrive
  • B2 Storage (backing up OneDrive amongst other things)
  • VPS

What tool stack are you using? Just curious

How can i access my home linux mini-pc from the internet, without using port forwarding on my router? in c/main@selfhosted.forum

This is what I've done too. I am almost certain it is less performant than some of the other options out there but I like that it is simple and using a tool I know. If this was a major use case of mine, I'd probably do more playing and get it working with something else but this works for now.

Also check out autossh and some of those tools
