Jumping domains and the pain

Well, one thing led to another and I decided to switch domains on a whim at 6pm.

Why? Well, to be honest, it was an impulsive decision. I was doing stuff on my file server and the name “nocx420” just hit me like a cold breeze.

Sure I didn't have an issue with it before, but we all grow out of our phases and reflect on our cringey decisions don't we? Well, that's what happened here. I just found the name too cringe and impulsively bought a new domain.

Now the name “cennepal” is something I just pulled out of my brain and liked the sound of. I've been using this username for quite a while now actually and thought multiple times about changing everything over to it. But it never really happened because I felt like it would be a pain to rebrand most of my stuff, which in the end was. Also it's apparently the name of some nepalian organization. Figures, but still, funny imo.

So now we have “cennepal.net”, a proper name and TLD. Although it did cost a bit more than an xyz TLD, I'm very satisfied with having a recognizable domain.

Moving all the baggage like my file server and blog was quite easy thankfully, however certbot decided to wreck my nginx config in the process of unlinking my old SSL certificates which was not fun (˃⤙˂).

My matrix server of course had to go along with all media and account data. You can't really do anything about it due to the way it handles its encryption, but thankfully it went off without a hitch due to having a friend in a few private servers I wanted to rejoin. To be honest, it went better than expected.

The problem child is of course of my own making. The adonis subdomain. Yeah, you guessed it right, all static links. Well, fuck. I'll re-link everything once I'm in the mood, but oh boy, today's not it.

So yeah, new domain new me xd. Till' next time.
