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.

Here’s my proposed configuration:

  • OrangePi Zero 3 running DietPi
  • Jellyfin with media libraries on an external hard drive
  • Dynamic DNS from DuckDNS to access server remotely via Finamp

Is there anything I’m missing? Do I need Lets Encrypt or fail2ban?

Correct. I’d like to make it available to myself and any family members or friends I share it with, but not the wider world

Have you checked out Netbird?

It is a overlay VPN that creates a virtual IP network that devices are in regardless of where they are on the internet. (You don't even need to open up your Firewall)
