Absolutely. Each server can be entirely standalone, you can just disable federation.

Seasoned software developer with a knack for tackling complex technical challenges. When I'm not heads-down coding, I usually indulge in two other passions: exploring the world through travel and creating culinary delights in the kitchen.
"Cancel Free Trial" - I'm sure they would happily refund $0.

And the relevant source code
I use Cloudflare as my ingress point. They have a lot of features to provide security against a wide variety of attacks.

If you're a bit on the techy side, take a look at plain text accounting.
I'm not overly familiar with how things work financially in the U.S. for day-to-day things, but here in Australia, I run everything through my debit card, so at the end of the month, I import all my transactions into Hledger, allocate them to their appropriate expenditure account (i.e., food, gas, utilities, dining out, etc.) and then I can run a report on where my money has gone. I've been doing it over the past 2 years and it gives some really good insight.
Although it's retrospective, it helps me understand what I'm spending my money on and can help forecast and budget.
Tailscale "just works". Since I've set it up I've never really thought about using anything else. Adding new devices is seamless.
As others said - use Linux. It's the defacto server operating system. Windows is clunky and cumbersome. Microsoft even made .NET work across other operating systems, making hosting .NET apps on Linux a breeze.
A super simple (and free) way of exposing your home server to the internet is to use Cloudflare tunnels. That way it doesn't matter what your IP is, traffic is routed through Cloudflare to your server and your IP is never exposed.
Use Cloudflare for your DNS, and it will offer you additional protection on their free plan.
I haven't dug into the protocol, but I'd imagine communication would be done over HTTPS, which requires a domain.
Noodles + butter, what else do you need?
What's the name of that plugin?
AWS Route53. Lets me keep all my domains in one place. If Cloudflare did .au I’d switch to that.
Depending on how nerdy you want to be, hledger is pretty robust.
It would take a bit of setup, but you can automate transaction imports and apply rules to categorise transactions automatically.
Check out https://plaintextaccounting.org/ for write-ups, alternatives, etc.
Stripe has pretty robust subscription management. And their APIs are a dream to work with.
SES is pretty solid and easy to work with. Free for small email volumes like your use case.
You need to verify your domain and request production access explaining your use-case. If you're only sending to known recipients, you can just verify them and not worry about the "production access".
I use PhotoSync to sync my Apple Photos to my NAS over SMB.
💯 the Zero Trust platform is amazing. Cloudflare tunnels + access is my go-to for exposing services.
Cloudflare offers a lot of services, including domain registration and DNS hosting.
I hope to never have to restore from there. It’s not something you’re to do frequently.
Seconded, I have an iCloud+ family plan so it was a no-brainer to use their mail. Setup was easy and it supports catch-alls.
What version of docker/docker compose are you running? You can find this by running docker version and docker compose version
From their documentation, you need 1.24.0 or greater.
This library looks like it could be a good starting point - https://convert.js.org/
Check out this list.
AWS Glacier. I use the Synology plugin that does it automatically on a schedule.
After the pricing change, I believe it's still free (or negligible) for low email traffic.
5,000 emails per month are still free, at $0.07 per 1,000 after that.
You could submit a PR to change it?
It's a free trial; you haven't paid for any period of time.
I have "Apple One", and under the "Cancel All Services" button, it says if I cancel now, they will remain active until the end of the current subscription period.
