I’m an oldhead on hosting. I have an semi-old server running in a cabinet in my office space at home, which runs an nginx reverse proxy. My DNS records are maintained on the side of the webhost where I have my domain (and email inbox) registered. These records point directly to my WAN IP, so a lookup of my domain would instantly show my public IP.
I host a couple of services on that server, some for myself, some for friends. One of them is a Jellyfin instance.
I’m a bit lost in the technobabble, would Netbird help me hide my IP from a lookup, and solve things like DDoS protection / AI scraping, without me needing all kinds of wireguard apps etc?
I know its superficial, but I find it important that when I’m visiting my dad’s, I can watch a film on the Chromecast from my server, so putting a vpn in front of that would mean to screw with that.


European leadership will still be kissing “Daddy” Trumps little asshole even after nuking Iran. They haven’t shown any sign of resistance up until now, what is a few extra dead Iranians going to change for western leaders?
Its fucking disgusting, but the greatest risk to world peace seems to be western civilization.
Fuck USA Fuck Israel Fuck war
