yea this is what i was thinking, still a bit scary to have a port open to the public internet lol. need to research more.
If you can rent a cheap VPS. I host a blog myself, if you have more questions about the hosting process, you can DM me.
You could also rent a VPS and make a Wireguard tunnel between your homeserver and the VPS, thus not exposing your home network.

My advice is to choose whether you want to focus on writing or on learning how to set up the infrastructure for the website. If it is the former then go for something like writefreely or proprietary platforms like medium, substack, github pages etc.
I’d personally avoid Medium as they’re quite unfriendly from a privacy perspective, though front-ends such as Scribe exist. Something deployable like Hugo would be the best variant imo, or making it by hand if you’re into that.
There is also codeberg pages instead of github pages that is likely more privacy friendly.
Yeah, I know about Codeberg. Though I know they removed that anti-Cloudflare project, which is odd. I don’t know more about it, though I remember the devs of that project made a lot of drama with Codeberg.
