It’s been a while since the last update!
I think it’s no surprise to a lot of people that the cost of living is making things like streaming services, media and general online services a little bit more unaffordable in this day and age. We’re all trapped by them though, and require them to some degree.
To that end, I’ve spent the last little while during my down-time running several services and resources for my family and friends. This is all well and good – everything works fine, and there’s minimal issues really. But in the spirit of homelabbing, would it really be a hobby if I didn’t set up some hyper-intricate domain name scheme that would let my family and friends access said services?
What’s changed since 2024?
Newly Deployed Apps & Services
- Tailscale (Headscale) implemented across my devices
- Uptime Kuma for service status and monitoring
- Paperless-NGX for document management both personal and for business
- Kavita for e-books, comics, manga and more!
- DumbAssets for tracking assets of stuff I own
- ChartDB for database design for some personal projects

App & Service Changes

Infrastructure Changes
- DOMAIN NAMES – I’ve now updated a whole bunch of domain names
- jtiong.com
- jtiong.com
- jtiong.dev
- jtiong.media
- jtiong.network

As you can see there’s a whole network of domains now 😜
Each domain has it’s own set of subdomains which of course, expose various services and software for my family and friends to use 🙂
