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 do some pretty crazy stuff honestly because I’m really into privacy. Since I’m stuck using a VPS I usually put it in the same country that I’m currently in so that for my end devices it appears I’m just accessing some corporate VPN.
On the VPN I actually have two in-country double hop VPN tunnels. I then have two more double hop VPN tunnels that first go into some random country, then finally to Switzerland (because I love their privacy laws). Those two tunnels are set as two equal cost multipath hops for my Tailscale clients, then they get stuffed into the first set of in-country tunnels.
Iinject random delays to protect against timing attacks too, and on top of all that I run Blocky with an insane amount of blocklists and that traffic also spread between all the tunnels over DoT.
It’s a lot of overkill but I absolutely love having no ads, strong data protection and a higher level of freedom of speech.
