  1. im literally losing my mind here deployed my first real porject to a home server behind my router today. on the server itself, curl localhost:8080 returns my page. From my laptop, the browser just says:

    ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED. I opened the port in the firewall, I think. I restarted teh app twice... im at the point where Im randomly changing settings, which I know is a bad sign, how do I systematically find whats blocking it? im fine with commands, I just need to know which ones tell me smth useful. seriously need help here 😭
