Which server setup for kids and friends? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hey, does anybody host a server for players outside the home network? At home, we have the server running of the "player 1" laptop and connect via local IP. For external players, I am hesitant to expose our network and am considering a VPS.

Do you have any recommendations? Thanks!

We spin up a VPS on demand then tear it down again once they've finished playing.

Some months we accrue so little use that Hetzner doesn't bother issuing an invoice!

We've shared the provisioning scripts on Codeberg if you want to try it ou: LuanParty.
