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 have my services proxied through nginx and behind cloudflares free tier. That way I don't have to worry about my IP getting exposed and opening myself up to DDOS/DOS attacks, which is a genuine threat if you do things that piss people off (I'm an admin on a popular minecraft server).
It’s 2023, the threat is there regardless if you piss anyone off. We’re all commodities that can/will be exploited for capitalistic gain.
I looked into nginx for minecraft, but minecraft doesn't use http headers, so I'd have to open minecraft ports on the router. Would this alleviate that? What's the difference between this setup and using something like a cloudflare tunnel? Obviously, there is still some reliance on Cloudflare.
