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.

Port forwarding was invented for exactly that
Hou will you configure the ISP's NAT router to port-forward? You won't be able to reach the forwarded port if your ISP doesn't foward the port as well.
You can't, this guy doesn't know what he's taking about.
Port forward behind CGNAT won't get you out. Best bet here would be ipv6.
Tor would work. However, only over Tor obviously.
Aah, ISP's NAT. Yes, in that context, it's correct that you can't port forward.
Perhaps you can STUN through, but unlikely to get a good port.
That has it's own name... CG-NAT. Thus why people are responding to you as if you're wrong. As you wrote it you are wrong though. But there's still answers like argo tunnels (if you are okay with cloudflare) and other similar solutions.
Or you can setup a vps and tunnel through that.
Oh, I see. Sorry I was too dumb to research that term for the comment.
But then the VPS needs a static address.
But getting a static address for your VPS is likely much easier than getting it from certain ISPs.
For instance, Quantum Fiber doesn't support static IPs at all... But most VPSes can and do.
