I laughed but I dunno about you guys but I don't publicly self host anything. If you can't auth via ssh or VPN then you're not accessing a damn thing from my home network. I've got multiple routers that I could set up some isolation with but it's just too close to home.
Inside the home even.
Can't get hacked if all your services are down because you can't get those cocksuckingmothershitbitchingassbastard routing tables right π€―
The connection is coming from INSIDE THE ~~house~~ INSTANCE!
Me having everything open: Come here mother***s I am waiting for all of you.
VPNs? Cloudfare? Cloudfare Tunnels? Tailscale? What's all that? Here we are fighters not pus***s.
(Just kidding about the previos comments haha, well I have it open but it's not on my home network... so slightly less problematic and tbh I am planning on closing some stuff, plus all is behind logins, and tbh I kind of like to be able to access to it from anywhere/any computer without having to use any special connection)
Well, now I'm worried about my security. I have an ngrok tunnel running inside a container on a raspberry pi. Do I need to worry about my other devices or if someone tries to attack me only the container is affected?
Same here.
A tasker script automatically connects my phone to the Wireguard tunnel as soon as I disconnect from my home WiFi too, so I always have access to my services. It's seamless, if I'm streaming music from Airsonic to my phone, and jump on my bike and take off, I don't even skip a beat on playback.
Ah the magic of buffers.
Yep, and it's also nice to have that buffer when I ride through a few dead zones where I drop data for like 5-10 minutes but I set Ultrasonic to preload/cache 8 songs so it doesn't disrupt playback then either.
