This is it for me. I used to use caddy a few years ago because writing config files was a breeze. Now I “use” nginx because I can define everything in a few lines of nix and it’s configured automagically for me.


!opnsense@lemmy.world is the link of anyone else wants to follow (with minimal hassle)


It’s been a while since I use caddy but I use the dns for nginx, make sure you are using the correct api key, it does not like using a too permissive one.
So a zone token instead of an account token.


Pan.

Panic and pandomodium with a desire to escape it all for a party in the woods.


Adding a link to a poll would have been far easier/expandable/honest


Out of curiosity why are you replying to yerself so many times?

Could have included it all within yer original post.


Out of curiosity are ye planning to do a post about RSA and ED25519?


There are some bots that are useful for everyone (community specific ones mostly), those I have no qualms with as they help everyone in that community.

The ones I abhor are the spam bots ones, different accounts giving variations of the same messages, possibly to farm karma or inflate activity numbers (I wouldn’t rule anything out when it comes to spez making his darling look active).
I also hate down vote bots as I feel they don’t contribute to anything.


It’s quite sad to see everything related to the blackout on /r/programming wiped.
/r/programming came back up two days ago and as far as I can tell everything relating to the blackout was wiped. I kinda expected it since spez was admin. Another thing that surprised me was how much chatGPT bot spam there is (danm it is so so bad, wonder what the mods are doing over there.... ah yes, spez). I used to sort by hot so it was hidden away a bit for me before. Anyways I hope Lemmy does not fall into the same pitfalls! *goes back into lurk mode*

I have both a Hetzner root server (it’s nicely beefy) where I host all my public stuff (website, api’s, Lemmy instance etc) and my homelab which is more personal media (Plex, 'arrs, Gitlab, wireguard, dydns)

The Hetzner box is configured using NixOS (config).

Homelab is mostly configured with docker compose, though I have plans to switch over to nixos to nail down the config. I am using cloudflare for my dns and created a smol cli tool to update a record there with my public ip address (homemade dydns). This is used by Wireguard to give me access to everything hosted there. Even though everything is hidden away from the Internet I still have https on everything thanks to dns verification.

(hastially typed up over breakfast so it may be a tad disorganised, feel free to ask any question if ye have any)


unfortunately you cannot delete it from my brain, least not easially or cheaply…


Bind is well established, got plenty of documentation, is what the previous iteration of the resolver used and on top of all that it works really well with NixOS


In my (our) case we use bind to run an authoritative resolver for our domain (I am sysadmin for a uni computer society, we have our own (physical) servers)


for better or worse it is, (though I don’t recommend newcomers to boot up a bind server to manage their dns, pihole is probally the best starting point)


Thank ye,

I wonder how much of an impact being in the EU will have on that.
