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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

i have a similar setup at home. the way i did it was using certbot and dns verification. i pointed my domain's NSs to digitalocean's NS and then i downloaded the certbot-digitalocean-dns plugin, created an API key for DO and stored it somewhere and then certbot took care of everything else. nothing is exposed to the internet
Very nice! And you don't have to worry about adding the cert to each device that wants to use the service, right? Since this isn't a self hosted CA.
exactly. that was the main thing i wanted to avoid. i also have nginx-proxy-manager in front of all my apps which also automates some things (like requesting new certs or renewing them when the time comes)
