The method introduced here depends on third-party VPS, which is operated by person other than you. Hence it doesn't make you a complete "landlord".
This looks like an awesome resource and site. I’d love to become a landchad. But my main concern is setting up (and relying upon) and email server which is flagged as spam or even unreceived by outlook, gmail servers etc.<p>Is this still a valid concern?<p>Are there ways around this to setup a server and get into gmail and Microsoft’s emails good books?<p>I’d love to become non-reliant on gmail. If anyone could provide their knowledge on this would be awesome
I don’t think the web peasants will ever learn as much as you would growing up with and building servers at home. I wish you could still do stage 1 installs and things still didn’t work so nicely. That’s how I got my chops; you want a multi monitor setup on Linux better RTFM for X and figure out how to manually configure it and deal with the configuration randomly breaking until you chattr it. Learning I feel was easier when things weren’t as good as they are now. You get less time just troubleshooting in general which I think is really what I do, at the end of the day I describe what I do as “I solve problems”. Random rant for nostalgia over.
I like the idea of the site, but yeah, the entire vibe around it throws me off - 4chan vocabulary (peasant/chad), call for donations in an obscure cryptocurrency, fully anonymous.<p>Maybe I'm doing the site injustice, but it smells like being run by some 4chan/ancap/"don't tread on me" bro.
It is <i>really</i> disappointing that a free resource showing you how to run your own stuff on the internet has been flagged. Isn’t this the exact spirit of hacking?<p>And for those complaining about the donation links, this isn’t the app store, it’s the internet.
