I just recently started playing around with an old pc as my homeserver and am curious of any recommendations for lesser known self hostable foss software that you would recommend

Nginx proxy manager is simple, but I can't manage to make it work with https on porkbun. Nginx-proxy works just fine and it's probably the simplest i've seen.

That is pretty cool :) I have a domain on porbunk too but even up putting DNS on cloudflare because porkbum uses cloudflare anyway but doesn't expose most of the features. Kind of a loss loss. Cloudflare works with pretty much everything.

I'll check out nginx-proxy. Have heard good things about swag too. How is the setup on nginx-proxy compared to other options?

I didn't know that about porkbun.

Basically you run the container and then put a couple environment variables in the containers you want to proxy and it handles all of it for you, including certs. Just works.

Thanks. Seems pretty much identical to traefik which makes sense because I think most of reverse proxies just use LetsEncrypt underneath.
