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:

  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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

I have an old pc on which I run jellyfin and some other stuff. It's only connected through lan. I used to use window's remotedesktop to connect to it, but that stopped working.

Now I'm looking for a good remote desktop. Because it s tucked away in a corner, fysical acces to it is cumbersome.

My server runs mint with xfce. My laptop runs windows 11, because of work reasons.

I'm inclined to use something like anydesk, but I'm unsure how to trust that company.

Sorry, are you asking about Moonlight specifically? I believe people use Sunshine for AMD acceleration. I wasn't even generally recommending it for use as a Remote Desktop solution since it's kind of overkill, just mentioning that some people use whatever tool will get the job done.
