hello,
I have recently bought a VPS from Linode and I thinking about using it to host some stuff but I don’t know what I want to host and what I can host. I don’t have a domain name so the traffic is http only :(. but I haven’t hosted anything sensitive so I think it’s fine.
what have you hosted on your VPS or physical server?
Also note that if it’s just for personal use, you don’t have to have a domain for HTTPS. You can self sign, or create your own certificate authority, you just need to clients to trust it. But domains can be cheap or even free, so it’s better to get one so you don’t have to specially configure your devices.
