  • Very different solutions.

    • DuckDNS: you expose your HA to the internet like a public website and register it’s address with DuckDNS so you can look it up.
    • Wireguard: you VPN to inside your firewall and can access anything on your private network.

    Wireguard all the way. Exposing just a VPN endpoint that can’t be connected to without the right cryptographic keys is a much more secure and maintainable attack surface.

    BTW I assume that’s what you meant by “DuckDNS”. Using that service is orthogonal to making HA visible externally, but is (I think) the common pairing.














  • I’m always torn on things like this. Yes, the was probably a bunch of Nazi edge-lords choosing an song with imflametory connections. They are signalling to others what and who they are.

    However, getting enflamed about it just broadcasts the existence of such groups. The press are amplifying the signal. It’s free marketing.

    The song itself is militaristic and nationalistic, but speaks of the Kiaser and the German empire. i.e. what was before WW1. It’s imperialist, as you might expect from something written in 1814. I can see why the Nazis adopted it, but it’s a boring dirge that is from a bygone era. There’s little to get upset about in the song itself. It’s all about the association.

    The rise of groups like this is something to be worried about, and Austria does seem to be a focal point. I just think hyping up scandals is fueling the fire.
