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've had pangolin running for a while, doing tunneling to some self hosted resources, and I'm confused by this announcement and update. It seems like they're suggesting to use an Android/iOS client to connect to Pangolin protected resources, which seems like a shitload more work and overhead than just using wireguard to do the same thing. Am i missing something here?
It looks similar to tailscale and netbird, in that it offers NAT traversal, relays, and proper authentication and access control. Whether or not you need that depends on your circumstances (how many users and their technical proficiency, CG-NAT prevalence, whether you need mesh support, etc).
If you're just hosting for yourself and you have public ipv4 and ipv6 there's not much benefit.
