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.
Now let your pants down and tell me all about
your embarrassing host names!
So many answers!!
First it was from planets from Ursula Le Guin’s Hainish cycle.
Now it’s the names of birds visiting my feeder: chickadee, titmouse, mockingbird, etc.
This is the most solar punk answer ever! XD Love it. That’s really neat. I struggle so much with naming schemes.
