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.

To add to that.. If OP owns a domain, they could issue an SSL cert for a subsain, like lab.example.com and point the A record to the (hopefully static) IP if the router, and port forward 443 to pihole
Or just a dynamics dns service like duckdns. Point a CNAME at your duckdns name. Or better still, a cron running locally and updating cloudflare dns etc. Lots of better options for home hosting than hoping your ip stays static.
By hopefully... I actually meant that OP might have a static IP already.
Sorry I read "hopefully" as an imperative. At least in the US static home IPs are very rare so I generally assume some form of DDNS will be needed for any home hosting solution
Wher I live they are rare too. They used to be more common back in the days, but now they're mostly offered to business customers.
But you're right.. the "hopefully" could've been easily misinterpreted as in "hoping the IP doesn't change anytime soon, or ever"
