Self hosted DNS (slrpnk.net)
submitted 10 months ago by srasmus@slrpnk.net to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

So, with the Cloudflare outage, I have found my self hosted services are not accessible outside of the home. I use a SWAG reverse proxy from linuxserver.io and bought my domain through cloudflare. I'm fairly new at this stuff, so is this a secure way of doing things? Does cloudflare have access to my data? I'm fairly new at this, so I apologize if this is a silly question. Is there some way to self host what cloudflare does?
