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.

Yup. I use it for sftp, ssh. I've never used in relation to a database. Is that for remote db? I am working on routeing mail through tailscale to a relay, since my host, for whatever reason, blocks mail ports and charges to have them turned on. I just wanted alert emails from a couple apps.
Should work fine. Your provider can't stop you from opening ports unless its a shared environment and you don't have permission/the port is already in use. Generally what they do is just block connections from outside. So if you use a VPN you're sidestepping that issue. With the VPN in place, and the server online and running you should be able to connect via
{VPN_IP}:995, etc.For every technology there exists an equal, yet undoing technology.
