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.

I have my nextcloud server exposed, I keep it up to date, patched, etc. but I'd love to use the extra protection of a VPN. Just ... I don't think mobile apps work very well with that, unless I keep my phone constantly connected to the VPN, right? Or is there a smart way to do that?
I believe you can configure your phone to only route traffic to your server though the VPN.
Nice! ... how exactly, I wanna know :)
I'm my case, I'm using the OpenVPN server on my router. When I set it up, there was an option for the client to only use the VPN for local traffic. That way it's part of the config file on my phone. Works flawlessly
