• New site redirect

  Hi all, I'm building a new site via Google Sites to replace my pre-existing web.com site. I would like the URL to remain the same. What do I need to do to redirect to the new Google Site once finished? Thanks in advance! Source: 5 months ago

• Just bought a domain name, how do I connect it to my html code?

  I'm not sure how to connect the html code to the domain name? I don't see an interface from web.com (purchasing site) other than their expensive website building packages. I don't want to pay that amount for developing the website as the point is to code the entire thing by hand. Source: 8 months ago

• Worst revival to make with?

  Web (yes I'm not kidding its web.com). Source: 9 months ago

• Google Domains is going away, now owned by SquareSpace. Well that sucks.

  A good analogy is to look at Network Solutions. It's a horrible company that is owned by web.com. Web.com only cares about sales and marketing. The registrar aspects just a path to cross-sell you on bullshit services. Source: 11 months ago

• Google domains closing, selling all assets and domains to Squarespace!

  This sucks. What I liked about Google Domains is that price remained the same year after year. Most registers are owned by a couple companies (web.com or something?) and every renewal it is some jacked up artificial price. $12 for the first year and somehow it is $36+ for the next? All the registers should be price regulated. Source: 11 months ago

• Any alternatives to Life360/FindMy?

  The only private alternatives are going to be self hosted and will require some technical skill. See owntracks for details. Source: 12 months ago

• Trying to make a pair of compasses that always point to each other

  On your side, you need some way to be tracked. Easy solution is an app on your phone, I like OwnTracks as a privacy-respecting option. Source: about 1 year ago

• Privacy-focused Vehicle Tracking Tool?

  Sounds like owntracks with a android headunit https://owntracks.org/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Updating location on Google maps

  OwnTracks is app people can install on their phones that you can setup to send live gps coordinates back to your web server. Source: about 1 year ago

• Best solution for remotely hosting public-facing low-traffic services?

  One container where this would have been an issue for me is OwnTracks recorder. Probably could have got it working on ARM if I wanted to compile the program then create a container around it, but didn't want to spend the time and instead just used the free tier x86_64 VM. Source: over 1 year ago
