I use nginx as a reverse proxy and assign each service either a subdomain or a specific url. SSL is configured once so all services get https. Its not the best though, some services don't like being behind a reverse proxy or don't play nice with the url, subdomain management can get cumbersome and if the service doesn't have a login page, it is open to bad actors.. i was thinking of making a website with login and exposing other web services through an iframe but i don't know how viable that may be.

A vpn would probably be the best way to go from a security standpoint but accessing services may be a pain on remote devices where a vpn isn't supported - like how would a TV on a remote network access tour jellyfin server if the service is only accessible through a vpn tunnel and the tv has no way of connecting to it? Not sure.

I used docker to get nextcloud and nginx conf to reverse proxy to it. It works well and is not difficult to set up by following their guide on github. It works pretty much out of the box.

Can you uninstall safari on OSX?

Good mini PC for around 100€

My current setup consists of a Raspberry Pi 4 with 4gb RAM and a 1tb external SSD. I'm thinking of getting a used mini PC for around 100€ to replace that tho because it would give me a lot more power and especially RAM (I currently need to use an 8gb swap file). My plan so far is to get a used mini PC that's quiet, has a...

I can't comment on the performance but yeah.. 6500t is what, 8 years old at this point? N100 is a year old. Tech can improve a lot in that time.

Sell. I don't run a data center and I'm not a cloud provider. I have a meager home server with some stuff plugged in and serve some tv shows. I want this to be as low foot print as possible. If it goes over 10w idle, I'm shutting it down lol.

11th gen NUC. Much faster than a RPI4, more power if needed (for things like Zigbee USB adapters, external drives..) while still maintaining low power draw on idle. It will jump to 20-30W when transcoding but I dont mind higher power draws when im actually using the thing.

Yeah a lot of people will say to just use your old PC thats lying around and it is a great way to start and learn but if you want something with a lower footprint (low power, quiet, cool) you're better off buying something more suited to that task. Laptops or mini PCs are much more suited to that.

Id love to have a server rack one day but I just cant justify it drawing so much power when I can live with the drawbacks of a smaller server.

Hot take: none. Let information flow free. Take it with the good and the bad. Don't lock yourself in an echo chamber.
