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.

Get yourself a domain name. It doesn't cost a whole lot and also allows you to complete DNS-01 challenges for SSL certs. It's also, like, your own. That's also a requirement for owning your email address.
(If you really don't want to pay and don't care about email, you can also use a shared domain DNS such as dedyn.io.)
You then simply set records to the Tailscale IP addresses of the hosts and you're good to go. Alternatively, you can also set them to the hosts' LAN subnet addresses and forward your subnet via a single subnet router; that's how I do it.
I own 3 different domains and just today set up SSL services for them using Traefik (made another post for an issue I’m having with that).
I ended up doing a subnet router and that got me what I was looking for.
