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 will echo this. I’m pretty new to homelabbing (I got a Synology NAS a year ago but have just gotten more serious about is and built a new machine last week that I have installed Proxmox and TrueNAS Core on). I haven’t set up remote access yet on the new machine, but for my Synology I have a VPS with Nginx (not NPM just vanilla Nginx) pointing to a VM on the Synology that also has Nginx, with a Wireguard tunnel between them. The VPS uses Nginx to forward ports 80/443 to the local VM (if the headers have appropriate URLs), then the local VM uses Nginx to forward the requests to the locally hosted services.
I’m thinking about dabbling with Traefik to set things up with my new machine, but the VPS+VM (or a container) with proxy capabilities is the way to go. And, of course, have your domain point to the VPS.
