  • Tbf, technically data is still decrypted at the reverse proxy and then re-encrypted. So if someone manages to reconfigure the proxy or read its memory somehow they could read traffic in plain text.

    However then since they have to control the VPS, they could also get a new cert for that domain (at least the way I’ve configured it) even if it was passed as is to the real host via a tunnel and read the plaintext data that way, so I don’t think a tunnel protects against anything.




  • The experimental status is more about that not everything is implemented yet (not that everything can be implemented, for example due to HTML not being oriented around having multiple pages in a document), so you have to write a bit of raw HTML sometimes. This is an example of how raw HTML looks, it’s the shell for my webpage.





  • As a Typst enjoyer I have to say this isn’t it imo from a quick look at the readme. Typst’s mix of markup and code modes is excellently designed and a high bar for anything to beat, and this looks like it doesn’t come remotely close. (I do have to say, I also heavily dislike Markdown in general)





  • My #1 advice is to keep domain and mail/whatever else hosting separate. You can transfer your domain to another registrar, and then get an email hosting service that allows you to use your own domain.

    That way you can move your email to another provider without also having to move your domain and vice versa.

    My domain registrar is INWX, and I host my mail server on my own VPS so I can’t speak to the quality of any mail service but Hostinger allows you use an external domain.

    That DNSSEC status does not have anything to do with being able to transfer your domain AFAIK, that is instead generally something different called Transfer Lock.

    To transfer your mails, what I did in the past was just connect the two mailboxes via IMAP to a local client and copy everything from the old mailbox to the new one (or to a local one first, whatever). As long as both sides support IMAP, you don’t have to have any special support from either provider. But it’s probably nice to have.

    You can connect non-Gmail mailboxes to the Gmail app but there are better alternatives. Thunderbird as you said, for Android there’s K9-Mail. Personally I use KDE’s KMail and Apple’s Mail app on my computers/phone. YMMV.
