I think there should be size limits on flags. You can have national flags but these shouldn’t take up too much space.

There is something… Funny about the oversized former colonial flag being above the Indian flag.

And then there is the Nazi rat at the heart. And that’s not even talking about the NATO flag which has been turned very close to a Swastika.

There is already a Nazi flag on there yuck

I use wildcard tls certs and wildcard dns records for my domains. this ensures that no service can be easily accessed unless you have full domain name. For example If you have plex and deluge then you have to set dns records to plex.abc.xyz and dns.abc.xyz. This can be seen by anyone else trying to find vulnerabilities. But if you have wildcard certs/dns, all anyone can see from outside is *.abc.xyz, only the reverse proxy (eg nginx) knows the domain.

Don’t forward any ports unless you have to. Don’t run any service on 0.0.0.0 unless you have to. Incoming ports on the internet can be super dangerous.

A safe way to do self hosting is with WireGuard, just setup a wireguard container on the server then you can access all the services anywhere when connected from a client without exposing any tcp ports.

For connections why not try traceroute? mtr traceroute

To see things within a packet you can use WireShark.

i think nextcloud will work perfectly fine.

for backups you can either have a secondary server at a relative’s home (use syncthing for syncing files) or go for a dedicated server, hetzner is pretty cheap.

why not build your own much more flexible. shouldn’t be very hard. just get a battery like this one https://www.amazon.com/Redodo-LiFePO4-Lithium-Lifetime-Off-Grid/dp/B094NN5KWY and an inverter.

i have had terrible experiences with these all in one UPSs that you mentioned, battery degrades fast and starts lasting only a fraction of the time. i would suggest getting a killawatt to measure power consumption, gives you a much better idea of what capacity inverter you need.

also not how the “1600VA” one is really only 960W https://powershield.com.au/wp-content/uploads/brochures/DefenderUPS_Range_Overview.pdf

You can see the capacity too its very tiny 12V / 9AH (x2) which is mere 216 watts!
