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.

Great, if you need to SSH into Ipv6 only machine, SSH has -J flag which can be used to specify "jump host" (basically run SSH through SSH)
what if I want to host something on it? I need reverse proxy?
Host a website that needs to be accessible from your own machine or public?
Former situation: Can be solved by setup reverse proxy on the other VPS, or join machines to a VPN server (like tailscale,, Zertoier or Wireguard server)
Later situation: Cloudflare or other CDN, setup reverse proxy on the other VPS.
Less accessible option but available for public: Tor or I2P
here is problem: I don't know how to set up wireguard and can't find any good guides
Personally have good experience with https://github.com/Nyr/wireguard-install, there are other script that are available by searching "wireguard setup script github".
Note: By default Wireguard config generated will route every bit of traffic through Wireguard (which will be slower and probably not wanted in this situation), to change that change AllowedIPs field in Wireguard config, lets say all your machines are assigned
1.2.3.xxxas IP address, to only access other1.2.3.xxxIP through wireguard, change the config toAllowedIPs = 1.2.3.0/24.I just have to connect to my server with ipv6 through wireguard to get access to ipv6 on my client?
You setup Wireguard server on the VPS with both IPv4 and IPv6. Then you connect both your computer and IPv6-only server to the Wireguard server. After connection, you can connect to the VPN through IP address assigned by wireguard.
