Back then it was a place for us nerds, techies, early adopters.
Now it’s a place dominated by the rest of the world. Including all the bad stuff like politics, big corporations and ads.
It was nice for a while… We need a new place :-)
LOL phrased oddly? English is not my first language.
I thought it was common knowledge that paying for something (console) and owning it was not the same these days, so I just want to know what I am buying…
What is it?
I have no clue what partysite is.
Could even be a hard link… (some applications don’t like symbolic links).
Edit: or a mount point.
Make sure to stop the application, mount the drive and link it, start the application again You have a backup? :-)
Yeah just like I can edit records in the database?
I’m not trying to be critical of the project, I really want to know what makes this project different than a shared database , if that is what it is?
I am not sure, a CSV file is technically a data source equal to a database, so how is this different from sites that collect torrent-links (which are targeted by anti-piracy organisations?)? The fact that it is self-hostable?
It’s always infuriating that the git repo is full of documentation but I cannot find an answer to the question: What Is It Exactly?
Thank you for the offer but I like the idea of having my hardware too :-)
Easy to hack: I’ve been Minecraft admin for a while now and never heard about that, do you have a source on that?
I’m renting hardware, so if it breaks I probably get the same hardware (and I am assuming backups will be on me). Yeah that is a valid consideration. It will cost me at least several days to find replacement hardware.
I have 50/50 speed so that’s ok.
And having a single open port in my firewall won’t do much. I’m trying to think of a scenario that is not secure. If the Minecraft service itself is hacked, then tailscale or Cloudflare tunnels won’t help me, because they will probably gain the same access rights as the user that I created for the server. Or am I missing something?
Weird TCP packets ? I probably receive those already, server or not.
For a VPS it is expensive, but this is dedicated hardware. A Minecraft server needs a decent CPU (not many cores) and is memory hungry, so a minimum of 16GB. Needs decent ping all over the world.
Because of the last requirement I considered ovhcloud and hetzner and this one is still relatively cheap?
You can rent a vps for 4$ / month, Forgejo for server is open source.
