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.

I'd do that if this was just for me, but this home server I'm setting up is going to be used by friends and family, so I'm trying to keep the points of entry limited.
If you're worried about "entry holes" that isn't a problem if you're using a reverse proxy with SSL (which you absolutely should be using). If you're worried about them getting confused where to go, set up a "homepage" app like Organizr, Homer, or any of the other ones. My preference is Organizr.
Ohh, thank you, I didn't know about these options
Happy to help! This is a continual learning experience! 😉 Muximux is another "homepage" option, I forgot about that, I used to use that before I switched to Organizr.
You mean from the Internet? Put everything behind a VPN and you're done.
I would not put Jellyfin on the Internet.
