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.

Why not use a proper VPN instead of SSH tunnels?
Mostly a convenience thing, since I only need it on-demand and I usually use SSH for things anyway. As this post suggests I'm obviously rethinking that now :)
A VPN you could use on your phone, computer, laptop, tablet, TV, Samsung SmartFridge, etc. I'll admit it's a bit more involved than
ssh -L ...but it's well worth it. Especially if you're the only one using it. After setting up Wireguard I've elimated all my router port forwards except SSH and WGThanks for the tip! Tailscale was so easy to get into and is worth it like you said.
