is it better to use subdomains or paths?

I have a few selfhosted services, but I’m slowly adding more. Currently, they’re all in subdomains like linkding.sekoia.example etc. However, that adds DNS records to fetch and means more setup. Is there some reason I shouldn’t put all my services under a single subdomain with paths (using a reverse proxy), like...

Personal collection of Piracy related links

Hello! To start my attempt at not lurking I am posting a link to the collection of links I have from Reddit regarding various Piracy sites. Please keep in mind this is my personal collection.

I can (and have) created a new instanceuaccount on a new server, but losing all my data has me concerned. What should I do with my new account so I don’t lose everything if this...

How does the Modlog actually work?

So, I recently came across a post on lemmy.world (my current instance) where every comment showed up as “removed by mod”.
