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.

Fair enough.
But personally I would recommend trying to setup wireguard if your router doesn't have it integrated. It's just so much faster than OpenVPN (usually the only built in option).
Yeah, it's definitely faster, but I'm not sure it's going to make too much of a difference for a Minecraft server.
With setting it up being a bit annoying by hand, I'd still rank the router option higher even if it's a worse VPN. Otherwise you risk ending up in that yak shaving situation where you're fighting with routing tables and DNS when you wanted a Minecraft server.
Yeah, that's also fair. I have a tendency to overcomplicate things like this when all I wanted was a simple service.
