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.

One of the mysteries I am facing ^^ selfhost headscale? Tailscale? VPN? CF?
Too many options :D
Personally, I just wireguard in to my local net. No need to have CF snooping where they don't need to.
It all depends on your use cases and what you (or your users) need to access.
One of my considerations is the privacy side… VPN or self hosted solution seems to be the waay better choice in that case.
Regular wireguard is fine as long as you're not on CG-NAT, and doesn't have any reliance on third party services.
Try to selfhost tailscale
You can set it up in 10 minutes.
In iOS, you can make automations to connect after launching certain apps.
In Android, you can do split tunneling.
Tailscale and ZeroTier offer the least barriers to entry. They can both be setup quickly and easily when compared to traditional VPN.
Selfhost headscale, run a reverse proxy with let’s encrypt on a VPS and Tailscale that VPS to your local server, utilizing Tailscale’s ACLs to block all ports except for your desired ones. It’s exactly what CF tunnels is doing but you have far more control over your data and security.
