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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Mandos and wireguard inside initramfs.

Wireguard connects to a cloud VPS that acts as the mandos server and then grabs the key from mandos.

All my systems are protected by LUKS aside from /boot which in my case simply holds the wireguard config and what's required to get the key from mandos. Yes this leaves the wireguard keys exposed but I'm not concerned since in my case they're only good for this purpose and it's easy to disable a peer. Plus the VPS has nftables rules that only allow traffic on the wireguard interface to a single port that the mandos server listens on.

I'm using mandos with the server on a raspberry pi. Unfortunately, mandos doesn't work with my Fedora boxes as far as I know.
