    @dingleberrylover@lemmy.world
    It’s a domain I’ve had for 15 years (I keep renewing) and I registered with 123-reg.

    If you 're in the EU definitely check out Bunny. They’re based in Slovenia. I used their free trial, to test it all out. After that their pricing is competitive, and mostly if you’re a single user homelab type you’ll pay nothing. At least, that’s been my experience for the past 8 months. My use falls well under their provided no charge tier.

    I looked at using nginx however I liked what I read and saw of Caddy (it seemed easier for me). I don’t do anything very clever and Caddy is working great for me.

    *I’m not associated with them other than to be a customer. Prior to switching to Bunny I used Cloudflare free level but I wanted to get away from anything associated with the USA and their (lack of ) data protection laws.

    @dingleberrylover@lemmy.world I have a static IP provided by my ISP. I own my own domain name. I use BunnyCDN to manage my DNS.

    On my server I run Jellyfin and reverse proxy with Caddy, I also run Fail2Ban. Caddy has built in SSL certification.

    After I set it all up (which took me a few tries to get it all right as I was learning on the go) it just runs with no apparent problems. I check logs and monitor it regularly however so far I haven’t had any problems.

    The Jellyfin address is shared only to a few family members.

    I’m in the EU so GDPR applies and none of the involved companies is datamining my stuff. Their policies are to be non-invasive.

    I installed Cachyos in June this year after years of Mint (Cinnamon).

    It was a zero problem install and everything works with my hardware. I chose KDE and it runs with Wayland perfectly. it’s the best distro I’ve used since i started with Linux in 1995. So my experience with Arch is excellence so far. pacman is already my favourite package manager.
