Instead of hosting at home, I've decided to go to the cloud and I LOVE the package you get with Oracle. You get enough computer hours for 2 amd based and 4 ARM based compute instances with generous network allocations.

Perfect for those of us who are just playing around with stuff and don't have a spare PC/Device :)

Hope this post helps someone have some fun!

yeah idk maybe they changed it but i have an externally accessible IP where I can access my apps on different ports and I can point my domain to that IP with no problems. Homer has some functionality to serve the SSL cert and that is within the instance, it wouldn't matter if its a laptop at home or whichever cloud.

One thing you may have run into is that you have to open ports in the security group so if you didn't do that then its "not accessible"
