I was pointing out that M$ neither made other hardware that doesn’t support W11, or (directly) profits from hardware being outside support for W11. So planned obsolescence doesn’t really apply in any way to 99% of cases people try to say it does.

I want to point out, planned obsolescence only really applies to their surface offerings.

I could expose my IP, I was previously and really don’t have a problem with it. My IP is fairly static. It’s just more convenient to use cloudflared internal to the network and proxy the addresses.

If I can’t figure out an automated solution for this, that’s likely what I’ll do. I’m just hopeful there’s a tool out there to do this that I’m just not familiar with.

Thanks for the response regardless, I appreciate you taking the time!

I’d be fine with individual certs, the issue I’m running into is that a cloudflare proxy record requires a cert for that multi level subdomain, and they won’t handle that cert without you paying them. You can, however, upload your own cert for it.

I’m trying to find a way to automate that process, since remembering to update a cert manually every 3 months is outside my ability.

They were talking about matrix itself, not a specific option. And I’m not going to lie, having to hand hold your servers federation choices seems like a hassle. At that point why not just use a self hosted, non federated option?

That is an objectively untrue statement.

While that can indeed be considered an issue, the idea that this somehow makes the internet objectively worse is debatable.

O.o Do you understand what Cloudflare actually does?
