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.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I mean, it's mostly reasonable.
Isn't it?
Well you could have skipped a bunch of it if you make ssh only available via tailscale like he does
No. You see, it's much easier doing the same thing in some cloud like aws and paying a small fortune for a slower server than on a vps.
I hate to tell you but a VPS is just a VM in the cloud. Unless you’re paying for bare metal, at which point you are paying an arm and a leg.
You're technically correct, but missing my point.
Yes, it's both 'a cloud' but a VPS is much cheaper and needs way less configuration compared to a so-called 'cloud provider' like AWS, Azure or Alphabet (or other companies starting with the letter A, I guess).
