bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 17 hours agoIs it bad to forward ports temporarily to game with friends? And deactivate after?
I dont have the energy to learn new fanglad networking since everything is so insecure now…im used to 2009 servers.
No?
I mean, how else are you meant to play the game actually?
I guess you could be like opening ports just to particular IPs. And you need a game that isn’t Swiss cheese that gets immediately hacked.
But like hackers don’t sort of seep in through port forwards; they need to physically identify and exploit a particular vulnerability.
Ah. Well mostly it’s for voxelibre or armegatron nowadays

It’s not really complicated at all you just download the tailscale app make an account and then hit share to your friends. That’s how I run a Minecraft server for me and my friends because I was too lazy to figure out how to port forward. It was easier to just sudo apt install tailscale and essentially be done.
