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 think parent is hosting on their own physical hardware, just using a VPS for a public IP. I do the same (I use WireGuard instead, but similar idea). The VPS is doing the same thing as Cloud flare in your setup. I'm a proponent of this setup because the only reliance is on a totally generic VPS, of which there are many providers.
To throw in another alternative to SSH tunnels and WireGuard: rathole
No, I mean, do host on your own hardware then rent a vps and use it as public IP by ssh-tunneling and forward ports 80/443 back to your own hardware.

Yes exactly, you can switch as fast as your DNS entry gets updated and you have zero dependency to a specific provider.
