Not everybody can or wants to pay for a domain name, when it is not really necessary.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
@inquanto Theoretically, when you are alone in your own network it can be ok, to go only with http. But login passwords over http are transferred without encryption.
The problem with https are valid certificates, so that clients can connect to your selfhosted services without issues.
For example, I was not able to connect with a KDE PIM program to a Nextcloud with a self signed certificate or with http only.With step-ca there can be a solution for this problem:

@B0rax Cool, I wish, I had seen it earlier this year, when I wanted to get the differences between some HP and Lenovo models.
Especially, how much NVMe sockets are available.
@cpbsy I bought such a refurbished HP mini pc this year. There can 2 NVMe 2280 be used and with an additional caddy, a 2,5" device also can be added.
When the system is idle, it is using 8 watts.There are also other models available, but not all are providing sockets for a second NVMe device.
Also mini-pcs from Lenovo are often used, but there are only few models available, which have a socket for a second NVMe device.
But they normally have a caddy for a 2,5" device.
@captcha_incorrect Currently I’m running my personal services similar to you using Podman Quadlets and I really like it.
I have also a testing installation of Proxmox on another system, but I’m also not so clear, if it would be a good way for my purposes.
@Nickelalloy Maybe Back In Time is a possible solution.
Its using rsync and it is possible to be scheduled.
@Epzillon Don’t know, if it fits your needs, I’m currently running https://tvheadend.org/ and MiniDLNA https://sourceforge.net/projects/minidlna/ on an Odroid XU4Q with Arch Linux Arm.
My TV can direct use DLNA, so no further software is necessary.Tvheadend is recording actual tv shows and recordings are manually converted into h264 videos afterwards and placed on the DLNA server.
Shows, which I don’t want to archive, are also served by the DLNA server.
@possiblylinux127 A domain creates dependencies on external infrastructure.
Let’s Encrypt and the Internet Security Research Group are U.S. organizations that rely on donations and can very likely be restricted by instructions from the American government.
Don’t get me wrong, if you want to use your own domain, you could do so.
But this creates dependencies for self-hosting, which may not be wanted and/or probably also not necessary.
