I don’t have a spare shoebox

This has been my biggest pet peeve in the wake of the AWS outage. If you’d built for high-availability and continuity then this event would at most have been a minor blip in your services.

Is there volleyball?

I’m ambivalent as to who uses the term and how, but a deviation from the general consensus of its definition might cause confusion for newcomers to the field who can’t make the distinction. That said, I enjoyed OPs post and appreciate the time they put into it.

Homelab on the other hand is not synonymous with self-hosted infrastructure and services, as its intended use is not for production workloads.

I wrestled with whether or not I should be that guy, but self-hosting by definition generally means everything down to the bare metal, i.e. not a VPS.

I can understand how the term could apply to the broader definition of running your own services on managed infrastructure, but it seems odd not to make that distinction in a beginners guide.

Oh yeah? C’mere a minnit and say that to me face

Do you think this is the face of a liar

Yeah well you have 5 seconds to enter a valid tar command, no peeking, good luck

I honestly don’t know why you took that as bitching, I’m merely pointing out that your setup likely won’t satisfy the needs of many who are looking at VPN subscriptions. It’s great that it works for you, but several folks I know aren’t likely to (for example) maintain or provision a VPS over in the UK to use BBC iPlayer.

This will only satisfy limited use cases. DO operates primarily in the US, and global region availability is limited to a handful of countries. People like to be able to change their VPN gateway country, something not easily supported in your setup.
