Enough people have already commented on the “proxy at the vps solution”. Another option is to configure routing and nat on the VPS and have it route over the wg tunnel.

Requires you to have postup/predown scripts that modify your routing tables on the wg endpoint.

I made the plunge about a year ago. Spectrum assigns me a prefix but routing was spotty at best. In the end after all the troubleshooting pointed to the problem being the ISP I gave up and stuck with what works, IPv4.

I mean, if you spent the kind of scratch on an android phone you would on an iPhone and then not fuck around with it, you’d have a similar experience on Android.

Years ago I used to flash roms and generally tinker until I decided I needed my phone to be stable and stopped. My Note 20 is polished and stable, no complaints.

My wife has always had iPhones. I’ve used both and find iOS frustrating. These days, unless you’re scraping the bottom of the barrel, it’s mostly about comfort and preference.

I have nextcloud AIO running behind NPM just fine. There’s a page in there docs on how to configure it.

DDOS protection is going to depend on the VPS. But for most services you could spin up a pretty lean Debian vm running a proxy like nginx proxy manager and run that over the tunnel. Something like opnsense seems like overkill.

Burnout Paradise is going to stay in my all time hall of fame till I die.

The whole .zip TLD is really unfortunate.

This is how I learn and half the reason my home lab exists. I need projects to get/stay motivated.

I also have one of these old Google apps accounts. I wish they would accidentally delete it so I could get the last couple stragglers off and take my domain elsewhere.

No. I have a monthly stipend but I don’t really take calls outside of teams.

Not everyone has a desk phone (much less a desk).

I feel this post so hard. I’m always about 5 seconds from going Office Space on my printer.

You do if you want to provide that as your “work” number. Unless you’re going to jump though VoIP hoops.

A guy can dream.

So a company that made 12 Billion in profit in one quarter is dying because it’s growth has slowed down/plateaued?

The only complaint on this list that, I think, is a legitimate complaint is replies not loading. Imagine if Lemmy worked that way. The rest is just how it’s intended to work.

Certainly a good warning before trying to self host but this isn’t broken.

I’m fond of Beekeeper Studio and a sqlite DB.

However, if my VPS is compromised, wouldn’t the attacker still be able to access my local network?

That depends on your setup. I terminate my wireguard tunnels on my opnsense router, where I have explicit fw rules for what the vps hosts can talk to.

I’m using CheckMk for pretty much all of that. Personally I found zabbix to have too much overhead.

No but less power hungry than a full desktop. It’s a good trade-off between power and performance.
