is it better to use subdomains or paths? - eviltoast

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 your router has NAT reflection, then the problem you describe is non existent. I use the same domain/protocol both inside and outside my network.
