  • Thanks! I appreciate your concern.

    This website is just a personal fun project, and I haven't got anything to lose if it gets compromised. On the contrary I've gained a lot so far, and I might gain even more if something bad were to happen to it.

    No one can hack into the knowledge and experience I've gained so far.

    If you've got any advice on security tools, good practices, etc. I'd appreciate them! I may lack the knowledge, but not the will to learn more

  • This is truly a treasure trove! Thanks a bunch. I read the intro and I completely agree with you. That's the reason why I'm doing all this. I wan't to be able to make my own website in the most self-sufficient way possible, and then share the knowledge with as many people as I can so that they may as well open their own websites.

    I miss the old internet, hence the style of my website.

  • Nice!! I agree with you. The experience is more personalized. You can show people who you are, and show them that you're not just another default template. I loved the gifs btw. Are you self hosting it or is it on a vps?

    Btw, how did you do the side panel menu-thingy? I'd appreciate if you just pointed the direction, I'll read the docs myself

  • Now, I have a question.

    If I port forward and someone gets into my kvm/qemu virtual machine, is there a way they could leave that environment and compromise the rest of my home network? The only port I'd be opening would be port 80, nothing more

  • Thank you so much! This has been the most illustrative wall of text.

    And you're right, I might be a bit stubborn on wanting to learn things from scratch. I'll be looking into Tailscale and Cloudflare tunnels. I was trying to mess around with wireguard, but I'm a bit lost and I don't know how to configure iptables. I followed a video on youtube but so far managed to create a vpn within my local network (which I can't access outside).

    I'm also interested in nginx reverse proxy, but I don't know where to start, I know I need docker, but I haven't had a burning passion to learn docker yet (I may be a silly goose).

    There are a lot of possibilities, but I'd like a starting point. Something that will teach me the most, but that won't be holding my hand too much.

    I really appreciate your comment, I shall keep thy wisdom for my future endeavors.

  • Cool! How do I go about setting this up? Right now I'm just looking for an equivalent to "launching my first satellite". It might not be the most secure, and I may be paying more than I should, but I need the motivation, to know that I can and that I did. In the future I'll be looking for a more sustainable and permanent solution, so I'd appreciate if you could share your arcane knowledge on this "tor hidden service".
