Revolt is F/OSS

It’s not just a company with a clone of Discord, all the server back end, etc is open.

Pterodactyl

Pterodactyl is the most asinine shit to ever set up, ever.

Minecraft really needs a mod system like ARK: Survival Ascended. I really hate Forge/Fabric so much because of this requirement that host/server match all their version numbers, but no mechanics to be able to do it within the client.

Been using Namecheap for a decade or more now. Great company, no muss, no fuss, just works. The greatest thing is that they’re boring as fuck. That’s one of the best qualities to have in a domain registrar.

Highly suggest putting Caddy on a machine, forwarding port 443 and 80 to caddy, and then letting it do your reverse-proxy stuff. Register a domain name, give it your IP address, and then tell caddy that ‘immich.yourdomain.bleh’ goes to port 78789 and plex goes to ‘media.yourdomain.bleh’ port 89898 – Caddy handles all of the TLS stuff, handshaking, you name it - so you can have secure sites with proper certs.

Then make sure those things are isolated from your home network through vlans if your router supports it.

You can get fancier with it using a tailscale and getting some datacenter IP to forward into your network
