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.

Same here. Taught my wife how to start WireGuard on her android phone and then access any of the services I run. This way I only have one port open and don't have to worry too much.

How about running your wireguard server on a VPS and then connecting to the same interface as clients from your mobile and home network? No ports open on your side!

That's what I do. The beauty of wireguard is that it won't respond at all if you don't send the right key. So from the outside it will appear as if none of your ports are open.
