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.

What benefit does it have instead of getting a dynamic DNS entry and port forwarding on your internet connection?
With DS-Lite you don't have a public IPv4. Not a static one but also not a dynamic one. The ISP just gives you a public IPv6. You share your IPv4 address with other users. This is done to use less IPv4s. But not having a dynamic IPv4 causes you to be unable to use DynDNS etc. It's simply not possible.
You could publish your stuff via IPv6 only but good luck accessing it from a network without IPv6.
You could also spin up tunnels with SSH actually between a public server and the private one (yes SSH can do stuff like that) but that's very hard to manage with many services so you're better of building a setup like mine.

Thanks for the great explanation!
