+1 for Caddy
config format was somewhat confusing at first, but awesome once it clicked

Another twist on “render an image customized to my ip” would be the recently popular wttr service. you can see your local weather here:

my first reaction is that nostr isn’t suitable for that kind of blob storage. someone tried building a filesystem on top of nostr and it was pretty discouraged
however should maybe just be up to relay & client policy. with a new event kind, why not? if some beefy relay wants to support it, they should feel free imho. most pleb relays prob won’t deal with them—and i’m guessing there’s a reasonable event bytesize cap that comes into play already

The issue is more that anyone could proactively make you visit a website to collect that tracking data.
Yes. People should use VPNs. It would partially help. Device/os/browser still not obfusciated, but they're less sensitive.

That's great. Can you share what the image proxy service is? Other clients should consider using it.

Nostr clients should rethink automatically rendering all images found in notes. Most users are not aware this leaks request info: IP address (thus location), device, browser.
