Thank you everyone for the suggestions, I learned a lot and I'll continue to check back also.

My nextcloud raspberry pi server used to crash when it tried to do anything difficult, like open too many photos in a row. I adjusted some settings to try and keep it from running out of memory, but I'm not a very skilled sysadmin, and I'm using nextcloudpi now which adds another later of abstraction in an attempt to have saner defaults.

In a perfect world I would do this, but for nextcloud at least, I have to be able to access it from public computers where I cannot install and configure tailscale.

Sometimes I want to share services with friends and family too.

And Synology support for tailscale sounds like it's finicky unfortunately.

Without a profit motive, where is the incentive to work efficiently? The cost to get goods to market will include the cost of the inefficiencies in the market? The fact that the tobacco is being grown on a small plot instead of huge monocrop, etc.

How could this compete against a black market that has a profit motive to get costs low so they can take more for themselves

Interesting, I already use cloudflare DNS and had "proxy" turned on for nextcloud, but I still had to open 80 and 443 on my router, so I'll look up how to set up the free tunnel sometime

Thanks for the information. I will have to look into SNI and see if my router can support it -- if I move someday to an ISP behind a more restrictive firewall, this system looks pretty good. (Or if I get unhappy with one reverse proxy handling everything).

Thank you, this looks like a great guide

Thanks, this is definitely the way I would like to go!

  1. Can Caddy forward requests to other machines on the LAN?
  2. Have you ever had to mess with HTTP headers?
  3. Do the docker containers have to get certificates from let's encrypt, or is caddy the only part that needs to manage a wildcard certificate?

I would like to use tailscale for some services, but the ones I access from public computers, like nextcloud or blog hosting, can't be behind a VPN.

I would love the Synology to Synology backup to be behind the VPN, but I'm not sure I'll be able to get it working, so that is lower down on my list.

Things like Jitsi would be cool to have behind the vpn, but then I'd have to get everyone to install tailscale on their phones and configure access, so that's going to be too complicated for me and my family unfortunately.

 

Hi all,

I started self hosting nextcloud only. Now I have a domain name and I would like to selfhost more services and websites on subdomains without having to open up more ports on my router.

  1. Is it reasonable to use a reverse proxy server to avoid opening up more ports?
  2. Can I use a reverse proxy manager that simplifies SSL certs, etc?
  3. Can I put the HTTP/HTTPS services behind a reverse proxy, behind a free cloudflare DNS proxy to mask my IP address?
  4. And put other non-http services on the real IP address.
  5. Will all of this be more prone to failure and slow compared to forwarding 443 and 80 directly to my nextcloud server?

The other services I would like to eventually host and have accessible externally are

  • Jitsi
  • Mastodon instance (hoping to make some bots that mirror other social media to bring them into Mastodon)
  • blog website
  • Veilid maybe
  • OpenVPN over TCP on 443 (to get through restrictive firewalls on e.g. school wifi networks that don't whitelist domains)
  • Synology to Synology backup.

I'm hoping to use Yunohost on a RPI to simplify hosting a lot of these things.

Here's my plan where I'm looking for feedback. Am I missing any steps? Are my assumptions correct?

  1. Install reverse proxy on yunohost; configure cloudflare DNS and freedns.afraid.org to point towards the reverse DNS server.
  2. Configure the reverse DNS to redirect various subdomains to
  • the raspberry pi running nextcloud
  • the other raspberry pi running openvpn
  • the Synology running the backup service
  • services running on the yunohost raspberry pi

I have not been able to find good documentation about how to configure the yunohost reverse proxy, or how to deal with HTTP headers, or have correct certificates on all the subdomains as well as the reverse proxy. Looking for advice on how to move forward and or simply this setup.

I guess I'm wondering who will hire the people to do that work? I assume a company that is allowed to have profit will be able to offer higher wages to be competitive

That reminds me of REI in America. They're technically a member-owned co-op, but they're definitely a huge corporation making buckets for somebody, probably the leadership. So a non profit version of that

 
 

I know about:

  • swimsuit
  • towel
  • sunblock
  • kite
  • water bottle
  • chair

Hey y'all, I don't want to share too much but do any of you know any good resources for people who want to come back to veganism?

Stuff like help with meal planning.
Navigating social situations.
Psychologically dealing with doing the best you can and making a fresh start.
