  • Then I would suggest you to take a look at Reverse Proxies, which are programs that let you publicly expose different services hosted on the same computer under different (sub)domains.

    The easiest to start with (and also probably the one that better fits your needs) afaik is NGINX Proxy Manager, which can be set up really easily using docker, and you can find plenty of tutorials online (here is one I watched when I was starting to look into docker and selfhosting, it’s a bit old but should still be valid).

    If after having set up that you will to thinker around it a little bit and dive a bit deeper, there’s also Traefik which is pretty cool and also has a lot of materials to learn online.

    I don’t remember if the video I linked mention it or not, but to use a reverse proxy to expose your services on the web you will first need to set up a dynamic dns (probably the easiest way is to use Cloudflare) or to ask your ISP for a static IP, then go into your routers settings and find the Port Forwarding section where you should tell your routers to send all the incoming traffic from ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) to the local IP of your server. And then you should be ready to use spin up Nginx Proxy Manager or Traefik on your server.

    (idk if I was clear or not but I swear it’s easier that how it seems ahah)





  • Long time Fedora user here. I’ve used Manjaro for a few months before Fedora and I’ve switched to PopOS! a few months ago because it was better supported from my laptop manufacturer…

    I’ve to admin I was a bit skeptical about switching to a Debian based distro, because I’m someone who likes to follow the latest news in the field and gets exited to try the latest stuff. But then I did and gosh if it’s a smoother experience compared to Fedora! (which itself was a notable smoother experience compared to Manjaro). I’m not saying that Fedora experience was bad, I still think is one (if not the) best compromise between usability and freshness, but I’d say that with Pop I’ve had even less troubles than with windows! The price of that? Being stuck with Gnome 42 after having tried the goodies of newer ones :/

    TL;DR: If you think you can live without the latest magic from the linux community, to then I’d reccommend you Pop. Otherwise Manjaro is a good distro and from what I can remember NVIDIA drivers works almost out-of-the-box but be ready for some frequent minor troubleshooting sessions



















  • Ahahah sorry, I know what Authy is.

    Mine wanted to be a way to say that after I discovered Ente Authenticator (the link I attached), which is another 2FA app that keeps an encrypted backup of your codes and lets you access them on multiple platforms and it’s foss, I “almost forgot about Authy” since Ente Auth replaced it perfectly for my use case.

    I thought that since is not a very famous project others could have found it useful
