Mind that I am very noob into self-hosting, reverse proxies and the like
When I saw that Caddy automatically handled the HTTPS thingies I was like "this is my moment then to go into self-hosting". Caddy seemed so simple.
Turns out... I am suddenly discovering that the connection between the caddy machine and the Home Assistant machine (both in the local network) is non-encrypted. So if another appliance in my local network went rogue... bum, all my info gets leaked... right?
This might sound weird because it might actually be super-duper complicated but... how come in 2025 we still don't auto-encrypt local comms?
Please be kind. Lot's of love. Hopefully I'll dig my way to self-hosting wisdom.
It's quantity and then units. Not units and then quantities. Standardize for once, goddammit!
