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.

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

I want to set up my own Nepenthes against LLMs. I have purchased a domain, say "wowsocool.com".

I have a RaspberryPi 4B that I want to use as an nginx reverse proxy, and an old Acer laptop that will host the Nepenthes. I am going to host this at my current residence router as I won't be staying there too long. I thought this was a cool temporary project.

My problem is that the website sort of glosses over the whole nginx setup and IP pointing etc.

If anyone has done this before, is it possible to please write up a dummy's guide that goes through everything. I am quite unconfident and my skills are nonexistent in this field.

Pretty please.

I've dealt with VC back when I ran an internet radio station. There is pressure to incorporate their wishes, because, well, they want an ROI on their investment.
