The link on Hidden Palace is a 404. Maybe it’s still being uploaded or wrong path provided?

I’m using LiveSync & it has been working great for me.

You’ll need something to actually host the site. I usually stick with nginx but that’s just preference. Once you get that running you can edit files for the site & start looking into some guides or tutorials for nginx.

I don’t recommend putting your site on the general internet. It’s just going to be attacked & can compromise your network. I have local web services but use a WireGuard VPN setup so that I can access when I’m not home, & not allow access to the internet.

I don’t think it will have everything you’re looking for, but I really like DailyTxT. I do have a couple other note-taking apps & seeing if I want to replace DailyTxT with Obsidian, but I like the web-hosted & straight-forwardness of DailyTxT.

Another response for “VPN”. I don’t have any of my self-hosted services exposed publicly & use WireGuard with the on-demand settings so that whenever I’m not at my house, I am automatically connected.

Some users did mention that things like TV’s, etc outside your network wouldn’t be able to connect, but that hasn’t been an issue for me, since I don’t use my services like that.
