You don’t need to own a domain, what you most likely need is some kind of dynamic DNS service.
freedns.afraid.org is one of them, they’ll give you a subdomain you can pick and the client will update the IP to which the domain point whenever it changes.
This is what you need, assuming you’ve a public IP from your ISP and you can go into your router and port forward ports to your TrueNAS server.
Now regarding software, since you’re using Syncthing already I would suggest you stay away from the complexities and vulnerabilities of Nextcloud and simply use FileBrowser, this is way easier to setup and use. I believe there’s even something on TrueNAS to get it running.
How if you’re about to expose your NAS/setup to the internet you’ve to consider a few things for your own safety.
Quick check list for outward facing servers:
Only expose required services (web server nginx, game server, program x) to the Internet. Everything else such as SSH, configuration interfaces and whatnot can be moved to another private network and/or a WireGuard VPN you can connect to when you want to manage the server;
Use custom ports with 5 digits for everything - something like 23901 (up to 65535) to make your service(s) harder to find;
Disable IPv6? Might be easier than dealing with a dual stack firewall and/or other complexities;
Use nftables / iptables / another firewall and set it to drop everything but those ports you need for services and management VPN access to work - 10 minute guide;
Use your firewall to restrict what countries are allowed to access your server. If you’re just doing it for a few friends only allow incoming connection from your country (wiki.nftables.org/wiki-nftables/…/GeoIP_matching)
Realistically speaking if you’re doing this just for you / a few friends why not require them to access the server through WireGuard VPN? This will reduce the risk a LOT and won’t probably impact the performance. This is a decent setup guide digitalocean.com/…/how-to-set-up-wireguard-on-deb… and you might use this GUI to add/remove clients easily github.com/ngoduykhanh/wireguard-ui
With WireGuard you’ll only need to port forward the WG port reducing the attack surface. After you connect to the VPN you get access to the server as if you were on the local network. This mean you’ll even get SMB/Samba access to the files and/or access to any other service the server might me providing, you don’t need anything else or change your current workflow, simply connect to the VPN and access your data as if you were home.
Another advantage of going with WireGuard is that you can more safely ignore the step (4) and (5) because only exposing the VPN through a port forward in your router won’t create much of an attack surface / anything that can be bruteforced. Your setup will be easier to deploy and maintain.
Note that WireGuard is designed with security in mind and it won’t even be visible in typical IP scans / will ignore any piece of traffic that isn’t properly encrypted with your keys.
Hopefully they get to Simple Launcher soon. I switched to that because Nova Launcher seemed to he dead and I couldn’t find a better open source alternative. I certainly will take suggestions if someone knows something better on fdroid.
Buku with extension Bukubrow is already good for me to have offline bookmark manager, flexibel function on CLI or browser. With Archivebox combination in my Librewolf reading my archive website.
As many others have already stated: he‘s on the wrong track.
Open source is great and works for developers and tinkerers. The fact that we dont have a law that a company has to pay what this product would cost in the open market is not open sources fault. On top: one reason open source is growing like crazy is the convenience these megacorps have with implementing it everywhere. We need to cast out those taking for themselves and dont give back.
I don’t know what happens with manifest v3, because the Mozilla variant is not compatible to Chromium. Maybe I have to use 2 independent branches. But I try to avoid that. Manifest v3 is a big mess of bullsh*t.
Would raindrop.io be helpful? I use the free tier and they have a web app. They also have a lot of integrations to sync with other services but I’ve never used those.
A bookmark manager have a option to add links and search it later to go to link like Firefox Bookmarks. But,A read it later service take a link then grab page and add it to unreaded section then u read it it and it moves to readed section like wallabag.
