• How to get notifications for home server going down?

  I suppose what I need is an online service that lets my server ping said service, and when the pings stop coming, to notify me that something's wrong. I don't want to open any ports on the network for that device for, say, a service like port-monitor.com to get to. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: Those making $500+/month on side projects in 2024 – Show and tell
