Reminder to everyone, if you aren’t necessarily worried about uptime too much, and have a spare device at home, you can host personal websites and various services that might be useful for yourself or friends and family. To keep it simple, all you would really need is
an up-to-date router that isn’t end-of-life
a firewall that geo blocks traffic from outside your country and blocks all ports except 80 and 443
port forwarding 80 and 443 to your device
setup dynamic dns service (some routers can handle this)
a domain name
Keep your device and router updated and reboot it every once in a while to load the updated kernel. Then just install some web server software or whatever on your device and point your domain to it.
Together, we can decentralize the web a little bit 🙂
