Traceroute can be a good hint, another way to confirm is on your router config interface, there should an IP address, subnet and gateway it connects to, with these values you could also verify it depending on what IP ranges it shows.

Well, if you are forwarding the ports from your home router, and you can’t reach it’s the most probable cause, if you are, that means that there is no public IP reaching your home router.
You could contact your ISP and confirm if this is the case, they could offer to assign a public IP for an extra fee, your only other option is to rent a cheap VPS and tunnel traffic between it and your home, but at this point you could also decide to host stuff on the VPS.

If your ISP (Internet service Provider) doesn’t have you behind CGNAT or Double NAT (meaning that multiple homes share the same public IP), some ISP block the first block of 1024 ports, so any port below that number is blocked.
If the problem is that ports below 1024 are blocked, but you do have a public IP reaching your home router, you could contact your ISP so they unblock these ports for you (I had to do that once, so at least with my ISP it was as simple as asking).
The way you could test if your public IP reaches your home router is by exposing something on a higher port than 1024 like let’s say 8080, if you can reach a simple web or caddy or any other service from 8080, you can at least confirm, that is the issue.
Be aware that most ISP even if they assign a single IP per house, this IP can be dynamic and can rotate on a regular basis, like daily or weekly

and then donate to the instance’s admins because there are no VC’s here … yet.
The point of lemmy (as far as I understand) is that there will not be a central corpo entity controlling and enshittifiying it as a whole, if that does happen to the particular instance your account or community is, you have the freedom to jump to another one, and continue your life.
On the other hand if you enjoy lemmy you could show support/donate, either to the devs, a particular instance admins, or even a particular community moderators
- Comment on What's the solution to QR code phishing? 1 month ago:
As far as I know, the options are:
- Use a QR reader app that doesn’t auto open links (or lets you configure it like that), so you see the URL and inspect it before opening the URL in the browser.
- In case of a short URL, use a short URL resolver so you can see what is the real destination without actually opening the URL yourself.
- Using a DNS with block lists (that are updated often) of known phishing sites.
If these 3 checks fail, there is not much more you can do.
- Comment on What do you like/dislike about lemmy? 10 months ago:
Dislike: there is still no way to group communities into sub feeds, apart from subs, local, all. (and the work around some do of having multiple accounts seems silly to me)
- Comment on Cannot stay logged in on desktop 11 months ago:
Can confirm that is happening to me too, using Firefox v130 on Linux, the weird thing is I have another machine that was logged in since a few months back that is still logged in and does not have this issue
