The "safest" way of self hosting (feddit.uk)

Hello peoples,

I am looking for tips on how to make my self-hosted setup as safe as possible.

Some background: I started self-hosting some services about a year ago, using an old lenovo thin client. It's plenty powerful for what I'm asking it to do, and it's not too loud. Hardware wise I am not expecting to change things up any time soon.

I am not expecting anyone to take the time to baby me through the process, I will be more than happy with some links to good articles and the like. My main problem is that there's so much information out there, I just don't know where to start or what to trust.

Anyways, thank you for reading.

As far as I can tell.

I assume that will eventually change as people start using it. Especially if they run data intensive stuff over it.

If I were to want to share video, I'd probably use a VPS as my own Tailscale/Wireguard Funnel. Or use some high performance VPN between the VPS and my media server.

I saw the feature. Seems a bit over my head... Or at least I'm too lazy to figure it out.... Cool it's there though.
