Ah that makes sense, I hadn’t considered that https would mess this up. I actually already use libredirect on Firefox on my desktop, I was just hoping to set up a network wide redirect. Thanks for the help!

Has anyone tried to use unbound (or even a hosts file) to redirect requests to youtube to an invidious instance? It seems pretty trivial in my head but I cannot find any reference to it online

I just picked this up in the sale and this is a genuinely fun game. I’m not even a Warhammer fan but this is very reminiscent of Doom with both the graphics and enemy types. It’s a pretty short game, I’m about 5 hours in and just over halfway through.

To be honest I don’t see the issue with multiple similar communities. It’s no different to how Reddit would have many subreddits with similar themes. For example on Reddit there were dozens of Star Wars subs so people would subscribe to them all

If you're on iOS you could check out memmy, it is heavily inspired by Apollo and has just been published on the App Store

I use Kubuntu for the kde plasma desktop. It made the switch from windows much easier. I dual boot and occasionally use windows if I want to play a game which doesn’t have Linux support

I’ve tried all the apps and honestly they are all great. I use memmy mainly as I much prefer the UI. The only app I haven’t tried is mlem because it would not let me sign in and gave me an error whenever I tried

I found a code on LowEndBox which gives me 2GB RAM on a Linux vps for $2. I would be included to agree with you for their normal pricing though

I've been browsing LowEndBox and found a good deal with vpshostingservice.co. The problem is that I've never heard of them before so I'm wondering if the deal is too good to be true.

Thats super helpful thanks!

[-] Fudgeknuckles98@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

That's really helpful thanks. My main reason for considering switching is for availability when outside of my home. I know I could port-foward but I am concerned about the security risks of that. I might buy one for just a month or two to see how it might help

I hadn't really considered hardware problems although I suppose that's a rather negligible cost. I probably only have to replace my own hard drives every 3 years or so. I appreciate the insight!

Apologies, I meant rent a VPS. When I mentioned self hosting I meant hosting it myself on my own hardware and my own network

A recent post here about 4th July sales has made me consider buying a VPS but the cost still seems a little steep. What are the main advantages of using a VPS?

Thanks for summarising! I block tiktok on my pihole so I couldn’t have read that even if I wanted to
