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.

You could look into mutual TLS / mTLS to protect your instance. You will need to set this up using a reverse proxy at your server (like Caddy) and then add a client certificate to your user devices. If you use the Immich app, I think it also supports adding this certificate under Settings -> Advanced -> SSL Client Certificate. Here you can find a tutorial on how to set it up: https://www.apalrd.net/posts/2024/network_mtls/
(Edit: you will need to ensure that all clients who want to receive your shared photos have a client certificate installed, so depending on the number of clients this might be okay or less useful)
Yeah, this is too much for my needs. My main goal is to be able to send pictures to people via a link.
Neighbors and family and stuff - less tech savvy folk.
