    I’m looking to redirect my old domain that still has a few months left.

    It’s a Google domain. Any help greatly appreciated. 😁

    @jac How do you want the redirect to work - when you enter this name, it forwards to the new one, or displays a message for say 30 seconds, then will auto forward ?

    If you have content then it makes sense to

    1. Set up the redirect
    2. Validate that this works
    3. Perform a move domain request in Google Search console

    This enables you to keep the SEO trail intact.

    @phenomlab Thanks for the advice, sounds great. I’ll login to my Google domain account and try this now 🙂 .

    @phenomlab Just had a look at all settings and advice given. I’m going to set up the redirect once I have the forum ready to accept members. I’d hate for anyone to be forwarded at this moment in time 😉 .

    I use Proton Mail mostly and recommend it. There’s some good alternatives here though - https://europealternative.com/category/email-communication/ https://www.reddit.com/r/NoStupidQuestions/comments/1vrrml3/what_is_a_good_email_provider/

    @Panda if just seems bizarre practice to me. They clearly state that cPanel comes with the package, yet don’t seem to offer it unless you complain it’s missing!

    @DownPW said in Nginx core developer quits project in security dispute, starts “freenginx” fork: Maybe virtualmin implement it in the future… I don’t think they will - my guess is that they will stick with the current branch of NGINX. I’ve not personally tested it, but the GIT page seems to be very active. This is equally impressive [image: 8ac0d197-68fa-4bd8-bfa3-87237bf8f1f4-image.png] I think the most impressive on here is the native support of HTTP 3

    @phenomlab said in Domain name factors: @jac Yes, but don’t forget that Matomo (and most browsers) alike will allow you to “opt out” or not be tracked, so you can’t really rely on these 100%. Absolutely, very true pal.

    @cagatay same here. Was previously an IONOS user, but moved to Hetzner to realise both savings and performance increase and have never looked back.
