+become a *real* webserver  which people can access by just going to your IP or domain without specifying a port
+
+**if you're on windows,** then you just need to add the commandline argument `-p 80,443` and you're done! nice
+
+**if you're on macos,** sorry, I don't know
+
+**if you're on Linux,** you have the following 4 options:
+
+* **option 1:** set up a [reverse-proxy](#reverse-proxy) -- this one makes a lot of sense if you're running on a proper headless server, because that way you get real HTTPS too
+
+* **option 2:** NAT to port 3923 -- this is cumbersome since you'll need to do it every time you reboot, and the exact command may depend on your linux distribution:
+  ```bash
+  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3923
+  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3923
+  ```
+
+* **option 3:** disable the [security policy](https://www.w3.org/Daemon/User/Installation/PrivilegedPorts.html) which prevents the use of 80 and 443; this is *probably* fine:
+  ```
+  setcap CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE=+eip $(realpath $(which python))

+
+* **option 2:** NAT to port 3923 -- this is cumbersome since you'll need to do it every time you reboot, and the exact command may depend on your linux distribution:
+  ```bash
+  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3923
+  iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3923
+  ```
+
+* **option 3:** disable the [security policy](https://www.w3.org/Daemon/User/Installation/PrivilegedPorts.html) which prevents the use of 80 and 443; this is *probably* fine:
+  ```
+  setcap CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE=+eip $(realpath $(which python))
