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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I am hosting few services for my friends and family on my server. Due to devices limitations, I can't install VPN on TVs etc. Is it possible to restrict the access to only those users that have a certificate issued by me?

Are you able to open it to the internet and put these services behind an auth proxy? that might be the way to do it. Or if it already has login you might be able to put it behind a cloudflare WAF or similar and restrict bots and bad actors.

It already has authentication. The problem with cloudflare WAF is that my application is streaming videos, that is against the Cloudflare's ToS.
