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.

There are many DNS names options. Which one do you use?

i use my external zone name but have an internal view of the zone inside my lan so records point to local ips.

Split Horizon DNS is the most seamless user experience.

I use subdomains, i., w. for wifi, few others for vms and containers.

With wireguard everything just works, and wireguard overhead over wireless is negligible even on wifi6.

I agree on WireGuard. It's clearly the winner in terms of speed for point to point VPN.

Same, I achieve this with Adguard DNS rewrite.

Same here. I have several domains, one is used for servers and email, 2nd for websites, 3rd for messing around (test setups) and a 4th is almost unused now, but with the demise of twitter and reddit I'm thinking of using that one for the fediverse (it's my username in national tld).

BTW internal and external dns run on different systems and all private zones are dnssec signed. (Loved the challenge on setting that up correctly)
