If that’s how you feel, then I’d wager that you (like, you personally) are just looking for an excuse to not protest/“rebel” and are projecting.
Seriously, your statement boils down to “if other people do x, they just do it so I don’t have to do x, which is bad, therefore no-one should do x. Why is no-one doing x?”

One I’ve recently re-read. Not quite as catchy as some of the others here, but manages to capture the world and mood of the setting remarkably well in just one sentence.
Is this about the straight werewolves author?
smiletolerantly@awful.systemsto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Do bots/scrapers check uncommon ports?English2·13 days agoTBH, it sounds like you have nothing to worry about then! Open ports aren’t really an issue in-and-on itself, they are problematic because the software listening on them might be vulnerable, and the (standard-) ports can provide knowledge about the nature pf the application, making it easier to target specific software with an exploit.
Since a bot has no way of finding out what services you are running, they could only attack caddy - which I’d put down as a negligible danger.

Oof, sorry, that sucks. I think you could still go the route I described though: For your domain
example.com
and example servicemyservice
, listen on port:12345
and drop everything that isn’t requestingmyservice.example.com:12345
. Then forward the matching requests to your service’s actual port, e.g.23456
, which is closed to the internet.Edit: and just to clarify, for service
otherservice
, you do not need to open a second port; stick with the one, but in addition tomyservice.example.com:12345
, also accept requests forotherservice.example.com:12345
, but proxy that to the (again, closed-to-the-internet) port:34567
.The advantage here is that bots cannot guess from your ports what software you are running, and since caddy (or any of the mature reverse proxies) can be expected to be reasonably secure, I would not worry about bots being able to exploit the reverse proxy’s port. Bots also no longer have a direct line of communication to your services. In short, the routine of “let’s scan ports; ah, port x is open indicating use of service y; try automated exploit z” gets prevented.
smiletolerantly@awful.systemsto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Do bots/scrapers check uncommon ports?English9·13 days agoI am scratching my head here: why open up ports at all? It it just to avoid having to pay for a domain? The usual way to go about this is to only proxy 443 traffic to the intended host/vm/port based on the (sub) domain, and just drop everything else, including requests on 443 that do not match your subdomains.
Granted, there are some services actually requiring open ports, but the majority don’t (and you mention a webserver, where we’re definitely back to: why open anything beyond 443?).

Ja, worauf ich raus will: bei mir ist das Glas gleichbedeutend mit "lokaler Kleinimker’
Kann ja sein
Ist aber nicht der einzige lokale Imker, bei dem mit dieses Label untergekommen ist.

InfCloud. Works well with Radicale, and does contacts, too.
It’s not pretty, but works very well for the 5/100 times I want to check through a browser instead of Calendar app / Thunderbird.
