We finished working on what we had already agreed to do and then cancelled the contract, the client was quite understanding.
At a small company I used to work for we agreed to take over the management system for someone trading physical resources. The guy that originally wrote it was self taught. We did a hand over with him where he took us through the code base. It was written in dotnet but it was a huge mess, he had blended multiple different dotnet paradigms, there was mixed business and UI code all over the place, large chunks of html were stored in the db, db code was just scattered through the application. We took it over briefly but it was a nightmare to work on and we found a SQL injection vulnerability. So as kindly as possible we told the client that his software was a piece of shit and the dev he hired had no idea what he was doing.
Have you informed the elders of the internet about this?
I use Technitium, for that purpose. You can set up DNS records easily and it still has blocking like pi-hole. You can log DNS requests if you need to track down where certain requests are coming from or which devices are making lots of requests. It has quite a few features but I only need a couple.
It causes so much dawizard.

I am a friend.
+1 for namecheap. I’m happy with them as a registrar. Their support has always been fast and helpful if I have an issue. I use CloudFlare for DNS as they were easier to setup something for dynamic IP.
I just use nginx alpine, if freenginx proves to be the better option later it should be fairly trivial to switch the base image.
I used to use Plex running in an LXC in Proxmox but when I switched to Jellyfin I did it through docker and I haven’t looked back. The setup was easier, maintenance is easier (updates can be scripted to be automatic really easily) and it works in a reliable predictable way like the rest of my docker containers.
I just have a VM in Proxmox that has docker installed and that contains all of my containers.
I used to run it on an old PC I got for free from a school made circa 2007 with a core 2 duo and 2gb of RAM and it ran remarkably well for such an old machine.
I’ve seen it with GoDaddy but not namecheap.
I’m with namecheap, they are considerably better than my last registrar.
What’s the resource usage like? I’ve looked into mailcow before but the recommended system specs are too expensive to make it worth it on a VPS.
