I was using it as a free domain for local things. I had a local address stored in duckdns as *.example.duckdns.org -> 192.168.1.x which pointed to an nginx reverse proxy that I then used to point at different services I host locally. It worked with letsencrypt so I could use https. I bought a domain from namecheap yesterday and have since switched to using them, with the benefit of the new domain being much shorter to type lol. I'm still working on getting letsencrypt working so that I dont have to pay for an ssl, but regular http works fine since its all internal to my network.

https://www.gnutomorrow.com/best-free-dynamic-dns-services/ Here are a few, DuckDNS is listed here funny enough
This is the first time I've noticed it not working, if its consistent I'll probably switch but I havent looked for alternatives yet
It seems to be intermittent? I can access it sometimes and other times I cant. When I cant unbound logs this
2024-03-26T11:14:08-04:00 Error unbound [20503:2] error: SERVFAIL : all servers for this domain failed, at zone duckdns.org. no server to query nameserver addresses not usable
Dang I wish I knew about this a month ago, I just built a NAS myself. Thanks for the link!
I'm using nvidia right now with a 3060. It doesnt use much power, I got it for pretty cheap on ebay, and it encodes/decodes everything except for av1 encoding which I dont have use for. Looking at the charts in the link below, if you need to encode av1 you'ld need a 4000 series.

I've found nvidia to work pretty well for jellyfin, I use docker with the nvidia container toolkit and it just worked with hardware encoding out of the gate. I also have some other docker containers running gen ai and the 3060 handles them well as long as the modle will fit in vram.
