A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It's probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.

Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.

You'd hope, but I have a few friends who simply port-expose their media servers.

I guess it could be worse if they had ssh exposed.

    I'll have to disagree with you there. SSH is super well maintained and understood, and massively useful for the risk you do run. Who knows what's going on with all the random projects people are hosting. I'd rather have SSH exposed than almost anything else.

    What would you do to provide access to some less tech savvy friends. I'm thinking of dropping a SBC with wireguard and a proxy onto a friend's network, that way everything is under my control, and I can lock down the wireguard connection however I want, but I haven't gone down that route yet.

    I was thinking more along the lines of simply thowing up a port to SSH into. No Fail2Ban and no keys, just a password.

    I would just containerize and reverse proxy, but I understand the hesitation, wireguard would be preferable.
