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.
First non negative integer so easy for computer to display.
I only really use zero in networking names to correspond with an IPv4 address that ends with dot zero.
I think it’s just what you’re used to. Like counting bottom to top in teleco versus counting top to bottom in IT.
