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:

  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.

Can I ask your setup? I'd like to get this for myself as well.

Try pivpn. It is meant to run on a raspberry pi, but it should work on most Ubuntu and Debian based distributions.

Not OP but… I have an old PC as a server, Wireguard in docker container, port-forward in the router and that’s it

Which image? I've seen a few wireguard options on docker hub

Not OP, but I just use ZeroTier for this since it's dead simple to setup and free. I'm sure there's some 100% self-hosted solutions, but it's worked for me without issue.

Sorry, haven't logged on in a bit. I use OPNSense on an old PC for my firewall with the wireguard packet installed.

Then use the wireguard client on my familys phones/laptops that is set to auto connect when NOT on my home wifi. That way media payback, adguard-home dns and everything acts as seamless as possible even when away while still keeping all ports blocked.
