SeeJayEmm , 7 hours ago to Selfhosted in Cloudflare is bad. Youre right.

Enough people have already commented on the "proxy at the vps solution". Another option is to configure routing and nat on the VPS and have it route over the wg tunnel.

Requires you to have postup/predown scripts that modify your routing tables on the wg endpoint.

I made the plunge about a year ago. Spectrum assigns me a prefix but routing was spotty at best. In the end after all the troubleshooting pointed to the problem being the ISP I gave up and stuck with what works, IPv4.

DDOS protection is going to depend on the VPS. But for most services you could spin up a pretty lean Debian vm running a proxy like nginx proxy manager and run that over the tunnel. Something like opnsense seems like overkill.

Burnout Paradise is going to stay in my all time hall of fame till I die.

B2 is about $5/TB.

If you keep your eyes open for deals (LowEndBox) you could find an inexpensive storage VPS. I've got one now providing 2 TB for $5/mo.

Pretty good breakdown of the current science on the topic. Thanks.

The whole .zip TLD is really unfortunate.

SeeJayEmm , 24 days ago to Selfhosted in What tips or resources would you recommend to someone who knows about Linux and wants to self-host, but has no experience self-hosting?

This is how I learn and half the reason my home lab exists. I need projects to get/stay motivated.

No. I have a monthly stipend but I don't really take calls outside of teams.

Not everyone has a desk phone (much less a desk).

I feel this post so hard. I'm always about 5 seconds from going Office Space on my printer.

SeeJayEmm , 28 days ago to Asklemmy in Can I refuse MS Authenticator?

You do if you want to provide that as your "work" number. Unless you're going to jump though VoIP hoops.

So a company that made 12 Billion in profit in one quarter is dying because it's growth has slowed down/plateaued?

SeeJayEmm , 28 days ago to Fediverse in Single-user Mastodon Instance is a Bad Idea

The only complaint on this list that, I think, is a legitimate complaint is replies not loading. Imagine if Lemmy worked that way. The rest is just how it's intended to work.

Certainly a good warning before trying to self host but this isn't broken.

I'm fond of Beekeeper Studio and a sqlite DB.
