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.

I use both. Caddy on a VPS that reaches into my Tailscale network and proxies services hosted on a computer in my basement.
@Jason2357 @uranibaba does it pay out? I mean, you can also forward a port from one interface to another on the VPS and have one service less, am I missing something?
Using a mesh network like Wireguard/Tailscale enables you to have a public interface that's not on your home router, but the VPS instead.
The VPS is a $2 instance and very under powered, however it has a dedicated static IP and some Ddos protection. The basement computer is powerfully and capable of providing various services, but I don’t want any trouble with my home IP address. Tailscale let’s the VPS see the home computer securely.
I meant to ask about Traefik vs Caddy, but you setup is genius.
