Comment on What else should I self-host?

Host a pangolin reverse proxy on a free oracle cloud VPS! It’s super nice to redirect online traffic to a LAN resource, that way you can share your home lab with friends and family without having to forward any ports or loosen your security posture.

I also highly recommend this suite of tools for downloading and streaming legal media via torrent because I would never endorse piracy.

From what I have seen, oracle is not a good host. They randomly delete servers for no reason. I’d steer clear of oracle

I don’t trust oracle at all. The guide uses them because they’re free (It includes a business generator so that oracle doesn’t reclaim your box)
I personaly went with IONOS because they have a 2.99 plan with unlimited bandwidth which is great for pangolin as that’s routing traffic for my “media” box

That’s because they are free. You really do get what you paid for - or not in this case. It’s in the t&c’s too

I know. I’m just saying, don’t use them if you don’t want ot constantly reinstall your server
