Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (donβt cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Shortcut: use Tailscale to create your own private network and avoid hosting on the big, bad Internet. Otherwise, you really have to be careful on how you protect your services.
Minor downside (or upside) is that you'll have to install the Tailscale app on each device you want to make part of the network.
This made hosting at home a lot easier for me.
Update: Ah! I misread the post. Tailscale doesn't make sense for this use case. My bad! π
A lemmy instance hosted behind Tailscale would be unable to federate, no?
Yeah, you're right. Bad advice actually. Oops.
