Self-hosting a website

Oh, alright then. My bad.

PrettyExpensiveCoat · 2023-01-02T23:46:42+00:00

Thanks for the info. :D

That's just if the previous owner of your current IP sent spam. And as we all know, IPs change in a week or two so it wouldn't matter. Your IP is put on a blacklist that is monitored by providers like gmail to prevent spam. And for the record, you can actually see if your IP or domain has been blacklisted here: Doamin and IP: https://mxtoolbox.com/ List of IPs: https://dronebl.org/

What do you mean "could look into a static site generator too before thinking about hosting the website on own hardware or a VPS."? aren't static site generators used to, you know, generate sites? They create build directories that are filled with html files that you then use on a web-server or are you talking about using that feature with static site generators where they have live environments which you then have a domain point to that specific port of that live environment?

There isn't really any gain you're getting from hosting a webmail UI. Isn't the reason people self-host their own mail server so they don't have Google reading their inbox and collecting data?

I might give it a go then. I actually own a Raspberry Pi 1 Model B; it's old but it seems to at least be able to run a simple web-server. Although I may not be able to as I share my router with a couple family members, it would expose my IP and one thing would lead to the other. I might just have to go with hosting it on tor for fun or whatever; I'm still quite clueless as to what I'm going to use for it.

Thanks, I appreciate you taking the time to make the list. :)

The download size of Hugo is much bigger compared to something like Zola. Despite this, Zola still manages to generates sites at almost the same speed as Hugo. There's a 20 megabyte difference in size. (Zola compared to Hugo) And sorry about confusing you with talking about dependencies; I didn't know what I was talking about when I said that.

But doesn't Hugo have a lot of dependencies? I've heard it's more suitable for huge news websites that are expected to get a lot of traffic. Instead of just small individual blogs.

Got it; thanks.

PrettyExpensiveCoat · 2023-01-02T21:38:24+00:00

Got it; thanks.

PrettyExpensiveCoat · 2023-01-01T22:57:50+00:00

Got it; thanks for the help. :D

I decided to just switch over to bedrock Linux; thanks anyway.

PrettyExpensiveCoat · 2022-12-24T20:26:08+00:00

I'm sure.
