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:

  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.

I have Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Overseerr etc running in Docker containers, but have never found a good guide on how to access these (safely) from outside. I resort to connecting to a server running VNC. I've tried nginx but didn't understand it, also tried Cloudflare (ditto). Is there a good, easy to understand guide on how to do this?

Another option that might work for you is zerotier.

And you can use sunshine/moonlight to remotely control it.

This is my favorite method. It doesn't require you to open any ports and minimizes your potential attack surface. You can either install zerotier on each host you want remote access to, or run an instance of zerotier in bridge mode which is essentially acting as a VPN.
