Best html status code
http* status code*?
You're right I edited it now, thankfully I'm not a web dev, that would've been embarrassing
No worries
Internally, Organizr. Externally, a picture of my cat being cute when he was a kitten.
Take this award 🏆 and give it to your cat
I redirect to "Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up" on Youtube.
God darn Satan, youre evil
I redirect to IIS.net just to be annoying.
OMG same! xD

I'm embarrassed to say the default page. Many moons ago I used to host a wordpress blog there but I'm exceptionally lazy and rarely ever posted. The upkeep on Wordpress just wasn't worth the hassle.
Every so often I think about starting a basic tech blog for those, "hey here's how I fixed this weird edge case", posts that have saved my butt 1000x over.
Same here. It just says "nginx has been successfully installed" or something like that. It serves the appropriate directories or redirects to the respective virtual machines for other (sub) domains.
I just have a static page that I randomly change - you can see mine here. In this case I was testing the idea of having text within an SVG for better scaling from mobile to desktop, and also I'm loving orange and purple at the moment for some reason! Oh, and I was testing automated deployments from CI/CD, so I always use my own base domain with those first tests!
A index.html file that says "There's nothing here". Not even a special http status. I have subdomains with freshrss, dokuwiki, XBackBone, and whatever I'm tinkering with, but I can't be bothered to maintain anything public. I guess I have personal websites I haven't touched since 2012?
A dashboard of available services just seems like the correct choice to me, so I use Heimdall
I'm using very advanced technology and my base domain is actually served directly on the client side. It's the very extreme version of edge computing.
When you visit it, you get some version of the "site not found" page. I just didn't bother to set any A or AAAA record for the base.
Impressum. Thanks TMG! 🙄
403 Forbidden
I set my 403 to just return "I don't know you."
Kinda surprised how few mentions this has. I use it for my personal website which I made using Hugo. That's what I used it for even before I was hosting any services.
Always wanted a "personal" website but felt I wasn't creative enough to create anything useful enough... Maybe a wiki was the best I could come up with
Care to share what you use the website for exactly?
I've read many times that If in doubt turn it into a blog and write down whatever you have learned that day. I have an entry that is simply a how to list all local variables in python.
It's basically just an extended resume. A place with links to my Github, LinkedIn, and projects I've done.
I'm not creative at all either, very bad at front end stuff. I used a Hugo theme for most of the website.
It's a redirect to my www Subdomain, which currently runs a Wordpress, but I'm developing my custom website to put there. So, it runs my personal website.
Hey, this isn't where I parked my car.
Mine redirects to DuckDuckGo.
No particular reason. It just does.
Mine returns a 404, but on purpose. Everything I want internet-facing is behind a cloudflare tunnel on appropriate subdomains.
I do something similar, then fail2ban immediately bans the ip for a few hours. The only people going to my root domain are people i do not want sniffing around. It also does the same if you dont pass in my domain at all (and are just hitting random ips).
That's great!
My personal blog that is a bit abandoned right now
A blog, although I haven't written much.
I have an instance of Organizr acting as a portal to my other services.
I like this question! I had several subdomains running and didn’t have a clue what to do with my host domain for the longest time.
I ended up pointing my host domain at an instance of searx-ng.
My personal portfolio website with resume for job hunting.
I installed WordPress just to tinker with: https://robotra.sh
I've been looking at some static page options as well as some FOSS alternatives, just haven't pulled the trigger since I'm not super concerned about it.
Ultimately though my primary domain actually just points to NGINX Proxy Manager which hands off to everything else.
One of these days, I plan to build up a neat blog with some static site generator like Nikola. Or maybe host documentation about everything I do with bookstack or wiki.js.
For now, it just redirects to a rickroll.
A blog of course.
I don't
A nice and sweet 404 lol
It's just a page that displays the visitors ip address. I've been trying to get it to work with curl like how icanhazip.com works to display the ip in command line but haven't made it that far yet.
JS powered "matrix code".
Used to have nginx point the default location to an abyss web server, but I didn't carry the setup forward when I upgraded the OS. It's a 503 now.
Several other locations are pointing to:
- my homebrewed file server. Initially to replace abtssws's piss poor directory listing performance, but now a frankensteinian being that has a comic reader of my own build, specs, and preference.
- an icecast server streaming whatever my foobar2k is playing, so I can listen to my library on the go.
