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 (donβt 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.

Did you learn that about my jellyfin by looking at my post history or connecting to my server? π
It'd struggle a bit on some setups, like when I'm using the Jellyfin app on my GFs smart TV.. Or explaining to a friend in Europe how to setup a VPN without breaking anything else on his network... It is a risk for sure.
I'm too tired right now to parse what you mean about the port forwarding. I guess the idea is to reduce the impact if Jellyfin were breached or exploited. If you're up for it, can you explain more about why that relates to port forwarding?
If you ran nginx as a non privileged user it wouldn't be able to bind to 80/443 as those are privileged ports. So you would need to use iptables to forward them to an unprivlaged port
Ah, gotcha! Thanks.
I feel like that information could have multiple implications in future. Thank you!
