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 (donβt cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I thought CloudFlare tunnels handled the non-static IP part, so DDNS shouldn't be necessary? I have a tunnel running on an RPi and I THINK it's going to update the IP that CF has if/when my ISP changes it..... I guess I'll find out! π
There might be a service in cloudflare that does that - but I'm not aware of it. DNS in cloudflare requires an IP to proxy to, and you would need something (hosted by cloudflare on your rpi theoretically) that then would notify cloudflare that your IP has changed - otherwise cloudflare won't know where it's proxying from.
Cloudflare isn't DNS, it's a proxy that sits in the middle. (Okay it also does DNS, but I mean it's not just routing traffic). Essentiall all cloudflare does is
I'm simplifying a lot but that's the gist. But if your IP changes then cloudflare doesn't know where to get your data.
Right, it's called CloudFlared: https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared
