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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Appears to be Hetzner for now, wouldn't be surprised if all VPS get affected eventually.

Welcome! Consider a VPN if you need remote access, unless you plan to share it publicly with a lot of people. It's a bit more work, but safer than directly exposing your PC to the internet.

Thanks! I actually already have a PIA subscription that I use frequently

In this case, it would be a VPN hosted on your home server/router or a VPS. A commercial VPN wouldn't help you here, although you can use it in combination.
