Selfhosted

56953 readers

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'm not sure anyone shares the same glee I feel when I view all the blocked IPs scrolling by in my pFsense firewall. Suricata does a lot of heavy lifting for sure.

What's your selfhosting guilty pleasure or pleasures?

Do you get a lot of latency with Tailscale?

Why would they? It is peer to peer

Nope! We use it for Jellyfin too which also works great 😸

Cool. I just figured traversing a Tailscale VPN would be yet another 'thing' between you and your gaming partners.

Either way you’re just going over the internet. There will be overhead, but not enough to be that big a deal.
