As someone from Russia, we have even larger territory, and going by rail is almost twice as cheap as by plane.

High speed rail from Saint Petersburg to Moscow will cost you ~$45, going by plane will set you back ~$75 on the cheapest flight with hand luggage only. Considering the time losses associated with airports, you'll be at your destination almost as fast for way cheaper, so this option is widely preferred.

Same story with long distance trips - I plan on going for a 1000km trip in July, and train ticket costed me the same $45, while cheapest plane tickets go around $100. It's also a night train with beds and all, so I have one night accommodation for free while on my way. Depart - have a nice sleep - be on your destination in the morning and have a full day to yourself, fully rested.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can go all the way from Moscow to Vladivostok by single train for $250. This will take almost a week, but it will get you around half the planet for that money.

Thanks! I got that advice as well, but I would like to keep it self-hosted - I consider using Pangolin on a VPS for that purpose going forward: https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin

Also, beware of the new attack on Cloudflare Tunnel: https://www.csoonline.com/article/4009636/phishing-campaign-abuses-cloudflare-tunnels-to-sneak-malware-past-firewalls.html

Thanks, I will! Wise of you not to share it publicly for security reasons

Yes, I know where this feature is in the settings, but it's got its own issues and I also turn the NAS off for the night, so it's not an option for me.

Guess I am going ahead of myself, yes, which gets even more complicated by having another server (Synology NAS) already installed and messing with networking a little, as internal settings appear to expect the NAS to be the only exposed thing on the network.

Thanks for the link! I've seen that thumbnail, but most guides are solely focused on actually installing Nginx Proxy Manager, which is the easy part, and skip the rest, so I glanced that one over.

P.S. Looks like I did everything right, I just need to sort my SSL stuff to work properly.

Pretty solid! Though insta-ban on everything :80/443 may backfire - too easy to just enter the domain name without subdomain by accident.

Same across other Slavic languages

Interesting!

But I don't want to mix it too much. I do have a Docker on it with just some essentials, but overall I'd like to keep NAS a storage unit and give the rest to a different server.

I treat NAS as an essential service and the other server as a place to play around without pressure to screw anything

I do remember that and take quite a few precautions. Also, nothing that can be serioisly used against me is in there.

I will eventually!

But for all I understand, it is to put many services on one machine, and I already have a NAS that is not going anywhere
