hi everyone,

I was just about to self-host a Ghost blog but then was warned that my ISP might change my external IP address at any time, so I would need to pay for a static IP address.

Is that true?

(I’d not seen much about that in stuff I’ve looked up so far about self hosting)

    But how will a tailnet help for a blog? At some point, the https port needs to be open.

      tailscale will tunnel through and you can set it to pass through https. Lots of different ways to achieve this, as long as you have control over the dns and are able to set https up it will work. This is why for me I still use cloudflare, you can even setup a subdomain through their tunnels and they act as a cdn. For example, I run a linkstack instance, send instance and much more
