So, couple years ago i started to learn about tech, programming and self hosting services thanks to redditors ( not reddit the evil corp ), and found lots of communities where they pointed me to good resources but then ended up allocating more time to learning programming to switch career into that field and finally got it.

As a passion and private needs I had set up couple of small servers for testing, but never ended up being able to actually expose them publicly in a secure way

I found some "beginner level" tutorials, but to be honest, it still was quite hard to understand.

Where can I found even lower level resources or any chat group or discord group for literal illeterates like me??

I know i can do my own research as I did for programming, but that was for landing an actual job, this is mostly for personal need, so i really cannot allocate much time into studying so much while I also have family duties and improving my coding skill for the current job

Thanks a lot

thanks a lot for the easy recap !!
I remember hearing and checking out Nginx Proxy Manager while following tutorials some mention that, but i found the tutorials kinda awkward at the time and didn't fully understand what it was for ( it was kinda of a long time ago tbh ).

As for the ISP, it is Fastweb, in italy, and is kinda a bummer, they rely on Telecom's FTTC network ( meaning the cable and cabinets infrastructure ) for their service, so i can either choose Fastweb ( kinda good pricing since I only have internet and no home phone ) or Telecom's pricing are like and armed robbery, where the fixed price you sign is already higher, and is full of hidden paid service that pop up every now and again and it gets you mad on how many times you have to call their customer service to either remove those service or claim refund.

Other ISPs in my area don't have fiber connection and top to like 5 Mbs downloads on a good day.

Anyway, thanks a lot!
