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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

The more I am selfhosting the more ports I do open to my reverse proxy.

I also have a VPN (wireguard) but there are also 3 family members that want to access some services.

Open ports are much easier to handle for them.

How many users do you have and how many ports are open?

My case: 4 users (family)/ 8 reversed proxy ports

How many users and open ports have you?

Reverse proxy and allowing connection only to IPs from my country.

Out of curiosity, how do you accomplish that?

I know cloudflare has a free tier and allows you to put rules like this in place. AFAIK you'd have to use them as DNS at least in order to use this feature. I use Cloudflare tunnels and access to facilitate remote access to my home-server, and I know I have this same rule in place.
