    You could host a email forwarder for your let friends, as you got a nice domain in Verasel's thread.

    Honestly, I have considered doing a free offer for my fellow LET shitposters (aka Megathread Squad Extended Deluxe Edition™), but wasn't sure what people would need/want. Maybe free @r.at.lol forwarders would be an idea.

    yeah, this gonna attract lots of abuse reports but i've conduct some research on both my registrar and registry

    my registrar policy is simple:

    Compliance with Laws
    
    YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for all content stored or processed on our servers.
    
    You MUST NOT use our services for activities deemed illegal within the European Union or its member states nor anything infringing upon our’ or third parties’ rights.
    
    Avoid Causing Harm
    
    Your actions (or lack thereof) MUST NOT disrupt our services or cause harm to anyone or their property.
    

    and on registry side:

    RESTRICTION (NOT BY REGISTRY's WILL)
    
    A court (arbitration) order or enforcement document restricting the right to dispose of
    a particular domain name is submitted to the Registry
    

    All of the problems I've encountered are with the IP, not the domain. Takedowns happen but rarely. Can't do anything about that bit be an ICANN accredited registrar yourself.

    domain should be the problem if they targeted you not the content you're hosting/forwarding itself

    I think owning your own ASN should do the trick if no one is lenient enough to forward an immeasurable amount of complaints to you without termination.

    The Tradeoff of owning ASN is your anonymity and a lot more cost overhead and more technical involvement

    but you still have to maintain a reputation with your upstream network too cannot be pure ddr ingor

    beanman's got a point. Even with all technical and legal things covered, you don't want to deal with abuse. Interesting how my public onion airport is less of a headache than this.

    we can say like onion airport is useful for censorship circumvention or something like that not just some malicious stuff

    but when it's public facing service that has your name in it, things are diffirent

    Free-use onion airports don't serve content, that's the catch. However the abuse complaints are more severe in number and frequency.

    I agree with all your points. One more thing we didn't take into account is user base. It's easy to dominate if yours is petite and docile.

    my role idea for public serving is nadeko.net, sometimes it's better to do public serving service from your home server if your country is ddr ingor like Chile in this case

    cheaper than owning ASN, doesn't sacrify anonymity but has to dealt with local isp regarding abuse report

    doesn't sacrify anonymity

    Private in term of not showing WHOIS info for the world to see, not so private domestically. Also depends on your preferences. Exposing the city where I'm based in is not so anonymous in my book, but agreeable.

    Agreeable

    If it's serious enough that local authorities are involved, I don't want to host it at home. If it's not copyright infringement then it's something political.

    I was referring to as a copyright infringement based but if it's political content, I preferably host it overseas or pray that no one will come after me like the kiwi

    tho, in some country authorities take copyright infringement seriously

    Routing over Tor or I2P helps but latency is too high. Better just offload on your neighbour's wifi.

    Hence, routing traffic over to TOR is killing the purpose of something like indivious but might be useful for others type of project

    Btw I wouldn't trust my residential connection more than Calin's basement data center.

    i could still see home network useful as to bypass content restriction, so having home infrastructure as a vpn endpoint for content proxy might be better

    I was referring to as a copyright infringement based but if it's political content, I preferably host it overseas or pray that no one will come after me like the kiwi

    Normally they don't give a damn about copyright infringements, but in various circumstances your anime wallpaper site could be weaponised (if it's big enough, or whatever) to satisfy your glutton for punishment. Need a scapegoat on bad days.

    Hence, routing traffic over to TOR is killing the purpose of something like indivious but might be useful for others type of project

    Dynamic residential IP sounds like solution to YouTube's aggressive blocking on data center IP ranges. But why do you need to serve Indivious over Tor unless YouTube is illegal in your jurisdiction?

    i could still see home network useful as to bypass content restriction, so having home infrastructure as a vpn endpoint for content proxy might be better

    I was referring to stability of home network in serving as a server.

  • What's typically used for lowend authoritative DNS servers these days?

    Not going to be used for anything production-wise, but I want a new project to tinker with. I had a brief encounter with PowerDNS / PowerDNS Admin like... 8 years ago, but idk if that's still the way to go in 2025.

    bind9 is probably still a safe bet I guess, but how about for example CoreDNS?

    I didn't use it for production so far, but nsd seems to be quite nice, easy to compile, short and easy config, good documentation, short source code and few dependencies but still many features (no geodns though) and low CPU/memory usage.

    Tho by law isp here are required to take an identifiable logs for smth around 90-180 days i dont remember the exact number. So in theory they could come after you for torrenting without vpn but they never really actually arrest anyone for that except some IPTV case. So i'll leave it at that

    I was referring to hosting invidious or others public instance on home network which stability is debatable for sure but i believe this also depends on the setup they're using too

    This is the best example that i can think of : https://infrablog.lain.la/townhouse-lainlav3

    ya DNSSEC would be nice, but unless it's fairly trivial to setup and manage, idk if I'll really bother.

    the problem i hav with PowerDNS is not with key provision tho but syncing key to all slaves is headache first time setting it up

    and im too stubborn that im not using Powerdns Admin too

    This really depends on what jurisdiction u r in, but normally they dont care for sure

    Tho by law isp here are required to take an identifiable logs for smth around 90-180 days i dont remember the exact number. So in theory they could come after you for torrenting without vpn but they never really actually arrest anyone for that except some IPTV case. So i'll leave it at that

    Hence, routing traffic over to TOR is killing the purpose of something like indivious but might be useful for others type of project

    Dynamic residential IP sounds like solution to YouTube's aggressive blocking on data center IP ranges. But why do you need to serve Indivious over Tor unless YouTube is illegal in your jurisdiction?

    Idk what i type then

    Maybe too drunk

    i could still see home network useful as to bypass content restriction, so having home infrastructure as a vpn endpoint for content proxy might be better

    I was referring to stability of home network in serving as a server.

    I was referring to hosting invidious or others public instance on home network which stability is debatable for sure but i believe this also depends on the setup they're using too

    This is the best example that i can think of : https://infrablog.lain.la/townhouse-lainlav3

    Good setup can prevent software and hardware failure, power outages can be properly addressed with UPS but the ISP still is a weak link. If you get another line from another ISP it's no longer affordable. Household gigabit internet remains a luxury. I'm not sure how much it costs where you live but imagine 2 authentic Gift fumo you can buy monthly.

    Note that lain.la has a data center at home, not my average Theseus box.

    ~23.57$ per month per isp for gigabit

    could be cheaper if you know how to rant to the call center

    Astounding!

    I have some suggestions on the format though. A gif is technically aged and not suitable for media of this duration and resolution. Your gif takes up over 30 MB space and still looks choppy. You must lower the frame rate, resolution, or compress colour palette to optimise size. And I bet it took you some time to export to gif.

    Gif is still preferable for compatibility but for long and hi-res posting, you can opt for webp. I hate downloading webp with a passion but it's very lightweight for sharing, easy to encode and can retain quality close to source.
