If you want it for yourself, that should be enough reason to make something. If you are hoping to launch a business this likely isn’t it.

Not sure if it helps but I’m using BunnyDNS from Slovenia for $1/month. I would like to host my own DNS servers but I’m not at that level yet.

it seems to be working

That’s the key!

I wrote a little poem the other day:

When it ends in vercel.app, Why is it always crap?

Your profile is missing the bot flag. You must immediately cease unauthorized activity on this network until you are in compliance with all rules.

Not exactly what I had in mind but I’ll check it out, thanks!

So ideally a handset device capable of recieving and making calls to a limited number of devices.

When you say a “limited number of devices” do you mean a closed system when you have provisioned all the devices or do you mean you also need to be able to receive calls from standard phones?

To replace a landline you can just use a service like Vonage Home for about $10/month. If you want to setup your own PBX (phone system) for calling your own managed set of devices, then you need more. In any case, you always need a SIP service if you want to make and receive calls with regular phone numbers.

What are your goals here? What are you trying to accomplish?

I use Windows Server because that’s what I know. Though I am curious to learn other OSes when I have more time. I don’t use docker so that’s really not a problem for now.

Wait I don’t have a reverse proxy because I don’t need one. I just installed the jellyfin for windows version and then you just connect to it.

I didn’t. I don’t need remote access. We don’t watch TV outside the house.

Right on that’s great to hear

Right now its a Thinkpad T480 with 64G ram and 1tb ssd. If it turns out we use Jellyfin enough I plan to get something more powerful for it.

its kinda crazy having your own personal netflix, right?

It truly is!

Wow, is your entire website AI generated slop?

You don’t like the one you posted to the Jellyfin comm labout 30min ago? If not then why share it?

Thanks!

You can find a description of my first project here https://lemmy.world/post/48204688

I’ll look into it, thanks!

Thanks!

It does feel great to be able to provide something like this for my family and to know that i control the data. For the thinkpad, I’ll look into the options when I have a bit more time. For now I took the battery out. Thanks for the tip!
