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.

Thanks! SOCKS5 proxy is a good option, I don't know why I didn't think of it from the very beginning...
My goal is to bypass local censorship on university computers that don't allow running any executables except those provided by the administrator. And I'm trying to help professors who aren't particularly tech-savvy, so a webproxy is actually still a better option.
A browser inside a docker is a very viable solution, however my VPS is super small, so I don't have resources for that unfortunately.
