I have a few selfhosted services, but I’m slowly adding more. Currently, they’re all in subdomains like linkding.sekoia.example etc. However, that adds DNS records to fetch and means more setup. Is there some reason I shouldn’t put all my services under a single subdomain with paths (using a reverse proxy), like selfhosted.sekoia.example/linkding?
If you don’t have any restrictions (limited subdomains, service only works on the server root etc.) then it’s really just a personal preference. I usually try paths first, and switch to subdomains if that doesn’t work.
