domain name with your own name?

I host some private stuff on mine, hidden behind an authentication service that is. But because I just use a wildcard no-one can really tell what I have hosted - the same login page occurs for every subdomain, regardless of whether it's actually wired up to something.

That doesn't help with services you wish to make semi-public (like a lemmy instance) though.

I wonder how reddit users would respond to this sort of treatment. We've already sorta proven that most users are addicted enough that they'd get away with it.

Suppose I shouldn't give anyone ideas though...

Of course - I get that. I'm a programmer myself.

But it does have to be said that there's little excuse for not doing it anymore for heavy applications, especially games. The tools/frameworks/engines have vastly improved, and people know (at least roughly) ahead of time what work is going to slog the CPU, especially in the case of a AAA studio.

Note: I'm only referring to relatively modern games here - anything that's older than when multithread really took off gets an automatic pass - it's not reasonable to expect someone to cater for a situation that doesn't exist yet.
