.ovh domains are like $2/year, if that helps.

I thought it was last Thursday.
It’s totally valid in most cases. It’s technically only supposed to be used for a question, but language is based on how it’s most commonly used, with those “rules” only applying in extremely formal situations. With the prevalence of informal text-based communication, many people use it to indicate being unsure, like how you used it. I just wanted to continue the chain of grammar corrections (which is why I used the wrong “its”/“it’s” at one point). Also, you were right about the quotes.
A question mark does not fit the sentence, which is a statement (“they should.” rather than “should they?”). While question marks are commonly used to demonstrate a rising tone at the end of a sentence, its not considered correct for formal writing.

3 yearsBe extremely careful. Plenty of people are really smart and malicious, so you need to isolate it from everything on your network. You’re giving random people remote code execution on your local network, which is like the worst case scenario for security.

Behavior-based antivirus is extremely difficult, failure-prone, and almost entirely unnecessary because of how secure Linux is, so they don’t exist to my knowledge. Signature-based antivirus is basically useless because any security holes exploited by a virus are patched upstream rather than waiting for an antivirus to block it. ClamAV focuses on Windows viruses, not Linux ones, so it can be a signature-based antivirus, but not many people run an email server accessed by Windows devices or other similar services that require ClamAV, so not many people use it, and nobody made any alternatives.
If you’re worried about security, focus on hardening and updates, not antiviruses.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Looking for a guide for installing Matrix server on Docker with TraefikEnglish
3 yearsThis may not fit your needs, but matrix-docker-ansible-deploy is really good, and it uses Docker and Traefik by default.
Correct. What you’d need in that case is a reverse proxy like ngrok, which is a bit more difficult to set up.
I have almost the same experience. I live in a small town in the Midwest, and the only ISP that goes to my house is Comcast/Xfinity. There’s a 1.2TB cap no matter what level you pay for, though they give you the option of paying an extra $30/month for unlimited. I’m really growing to appreciate our local ISP, which provides symmetrical FTTH, unlimited data, a static (or at least rarely changing) IP, and generally non-predatory business practices, all for a lower price than Xfinity. Unfortunately, my house is on the fringe of the town, so they don’t reach all the way here and I’m stuck with Xfinity.
True, but it’s hard to get end users to use OpenBSD. It’s really easy to make a firewall based on OpenBSD.
OpenBSD is focused on being incredibly secure, and they generally succeed. Firewalls need good security.
It’s really common. The IT people know how to use Windows, and they need Active Directory to manage their Windows devices, so they just use Windows Server.
