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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Title. I looked at how to configure anything and found Caddy to be much easier to use. Aside from a lot of docker images integrating with it, why is everyone using it? Edit: I meant Traefik

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.

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.
