Hi fellow selfhosters!
What hostnames do you use for your systems and services?
And maybe why if it’s an interesting story.
I’ll start:
Steam Deck: krax
Smartphone: krix (once I get LineageOS installed again)
MiniPC: krux
Reserved for future use: krex & krox
Creative, I know. 😅 The names have no deeper meaning. The x comes from Linux. That’s it.
I know some of you use god names of certain pantheons, such as Thor. But I find that boring as a lot of people are doing that.
"Scale with more ProxMox nodes? Don’t you mean

Hah, they’re TrueNAS BSD jails, but yes, now I need to figure out how to rename the “Jails” tab in my UI to overlords.
Also, all the extra work my self-hosting endeavors generate is “creep”.
