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.

Kind of a quick off the cuff question.... but is it difficult to get a docker hosted jellyfin server accessible outside of lan safely?

I have tailscale and a VPN I can use for my own devices but would like to be able to access it safely without needing those.

Why not just run your own WireGuard instance? I have a pivpn vm for it and it works great. You could also just put jellyfin behind a TLS terminating reverse proxy.

Sounds like a pain to get non technical family members to use. If you're willing to break the non web app you could always put it behind an authenticating proxy (which is what I do for myself outside of VPN, setting up a VPN on a phone is obnoxious and I only look at metadata anyway on my phone)

Or headscale, works like a charm

CGNAT is a big reason.
