  • Thanks for putting this together. I have been dragging my feet on self-hosting NextCloud, and now it looks like that procrastination may just work out in my favor.

    One question, can I just run this on localhost and access through my local network instead of using a reverse proxy? If so, how? That’s all I need, I don’t use a reverse proxy now and would be fine just using a self-hosted VPN to access it when away from my private network. The docs make it seem like there is pretty stringent requirements on having to use a reverse proxy and certs, etc which was the same ‘issue’ I had with NextCloud. I guess I’m the minority here, but curious if anyone can help answer.








  • Look at the price of the NES when it launched. $180. Then you had games averaging about $40 in price, up to $60. Adjust for inflation, development expenses, and the fact that games offer many more hours of replay these days…it’s not priced that badly. Relative to Steam it will look high, but PC games change pricing to grab different customer groups that wouldn’t ever buy the game otherwise as a last-ditch attempt to find revenue.

    They got it a little backwards, would it not be weirder if it changed? Perhaps I like games because they can’t easily be corrupted by the modern world and therefore feel comforting. Even movies and books from the past are commonly being modified these days with censorship. It is fascinating that you can play and experience a game in a way that’s identical to the day it first came out.
