   No updates - services down - shocking conceit of their customer service

   OwnCube is horrible. Their services are cheap, but you pay for a service they don't provide, update or work.

   When it's not working and you contact their support, they basically treat you like a dumb user. If it doens't work, it's never their fault, even though you have proof it is. Too much pride for too low service.

• recommendation for hosted nextcloud + collabora?

  I myself use a hosted nextcloud on https://owncube.com I myself use it for uploading encrypted files or backups from my homeserver and VPS. Source: over 2 years ago

• Cheap Nextcloud hoster with lots of storage

  Have you looked at owncube? I've been there a few years. Service has been okay. They often offer deals on extra storage and upgrades. Source: over 2 years ago

• Cheapest Cloud Storage?

  It depends on how many storage you want, but I've been using Owncube for years now and I think it's very private, cheap and good. Source: over 2 years ago

• can't set up online account (plasma mobile)

  I can't create an online account (nextcloud) because the confirmation button is outside the screen (nextcloud provider: owncube.com). Source: about 3 years ago

• Working on Multiple Web Projects with Docker Compose and Traefik

  This seems like an improvement over my current solution in that it can keep multiple projects open simultaneously and route to each of them, but does add more complexity to the setup. I'm using Dnsmasq (https://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/doc.html) to map anything at .lo to the currently running project, like so:

    brew install dnsmasq.

• easiest way to setup internal DNS routing?

  I would use a simple dns proxy like Blocky if you want adblocking or dnsmasq if you don't. Source: about 1 year ago

• Frustrated with the hardware I own

  The pervious setup was much the same except the lab was under the UDMP without another gateway. I used UnifiOS to create networks(vLANs) and trusted that segregation to work. It did not. As I progressed in my home lab, I went through a few hypervisors and settled on EXSi and vSphere. 100% overkill but that is what labbing is for right? Again progressing through and adding things like windows AD and many Home... Source: over 1 year ago

• Can I use a custom dns entry to get to my local dev site?

  If you can handle all these, then the easiest way to setup a local dev DNS is dnsmasq. You can install it via HomeBrew. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Is there any way to boot an operating system over PXE?

  If you are still interested, I heartily suggest using dnsmasq to do the dhcp/tftp/PXE service. I’ve used it on airgapped networks to boot systems and install a base Linux OS or run diagnostic tools. Source: over 2 years ago
