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 (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Do you have any recommendations or good to go config for openvpn+android? I used my regular setup / config and somehow the VPN client I used didn't like it. I am not sure if it's that (there are some legacy / unsupported config settings which never clients don't tend to support) or I messed up somehow.
Anyway, I would be grateful for some pointers or a link on setting up the client and server config correctly.
OpenVPN is good but I'd recommend Wireguard or something built on top of it such as Tailscale. Way more flexible than a traditional client-server VPN. Wireguard doesn't have clients and servers; it just has "peers". You can have peers directly communicate with other peers (like a partial or full mesh), or you can route certain routes through a peer to simulate parts of a traditional client/server VPN.
