Hi, you guys might know me from these three posts. After reading all of the comments, I’ve decided to purchase a Mini PC to host public instances of privacy-respecting services.
I’m here to bring some good news: I got it working perfectly! You can visit reallyaweso.me today and get a list of services that I’m hosting!
All services are deployed via Docker and proxied through Cloudflare. You might ask: “Why Cloudflare?”. It’s because I can’t port forward things on my home network. It really sucks that I’m depending on Cloudflare to do the port forwarding for me, but it is what it is.
If you want me to host a specific service that you want, feel free to comment on this post!
I would really appreciate it if you guys could checkout some services that I’m hosting, as I don’t know if everything went smoothly or not. Thank you guys so much for helping me on this journey!!
If you have a domain and connected it to Cloudflare, you can assign tunnels to specific subdomains. For example, I have Invidious running locally on my server with port 3000. I connected the server with a Cloudflare tunnel and pointed invidious.reallyaweso.me to
http://192.168.0.17:3000, which is my local IP.Ah right. What I really meant to ask was if it can do protocols other than http.
Which I don’t think it can…
You can, but I found it a bit laggy. It basically wraps your tcp stream over https, so I think the extra overhead was what was slowing it down.
