(See it makes sense i have one that’s grimaldi and one that’s orsinov)
Thank you so much
Thats huge
I am hosting this server behind a dynamic ipb6 address, which a script send to the cloudflare api every time it changes
As long as you have a DSLite ipv6 non-nat address, you can be on the web - with compromises xD
My parents are still behind a dynamic ipv4, which is not behind a NAT
?? This is clearly not what i’m saying. Residential Hosting is technically possible - everything works as intended, it’s just that a tiny bit of extra logic on the recievers side rejects the delivery.
That’s very different from…? Demanding the air? Hosts it?
I just think the requirement is red tape, and i have no idea why yall are so ready to accept, that you shouldn’t own the machienes you run your code on, if you’re not a company.
Suree, i am a bit oblivious, it may be that it’s as “easy” as calling your isp. It’s just that my isp never picks up, and sends the pinkertons after me to get me to stop calling.
Suree in the grand sheme of things getting a non-residential ip shouldn’t be too hard
But i still think it’s one of those pieces of red tape that have killed a lot of diversity
This is absolutely a reason to close your home server -i mean if you’re buying an VPS anyway that uses the same bandwidth it would use with the server set up there
Why keep a server in your garage? And then you’re not truely independent anymore, because of a small policy somewhere
I DO think garage hosting is an important part of an ecosystems freedom.
I can garage host fedi, and i AM in this very moment. For web services it’s just DOS Protection that we need Men in the Middle for. Which is sad but, actually not an artificial requirement.
A VPS is basically just a complicated way of making an account with a large infrastructure provider imo if i can’t have a raspberry pi, that costs only electricity, and have it host an email server
the protocol is not open! at least it is more closed than i’d like - it’s open enough for companies, granted
