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:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I would like to introduce a reverse proxy which I really like to use and maybe you will like it too 😊

I tried a few reverse proxies, but in the end nothing met my needs. A simple reverse proxy with webinterface, easy to setup, but powerful...

I was impressed from the start with Zoraxy. A good alternative to Nginx Proxy Manager and Cosmos. Zoraxy can be run in docker, but it is possible to install it directly on the host. This is the first reverse proxy I saw, where docker is not an obligation (except apache and nginx itself :) )

Zoraxy makes it easy to setup subdomain proxies oder virtual directory records. An uptime Monitor is included too and a few network tools like ping, whois, mDNS scanner, IP-scanner or a ssh client.

Let´s Encrypt is supported and custom certificates. Blacklist / Whitelist access control and a lot of stats (like goaccess but with better diagrams)

You can import and export all settings to zip file including all subdomain proxies etc...

Read more and try out on GitHub

I am not the developer but I really like this project!

Hey OP - Caddy has reverse proxy abilities and doesn't require docker. Same with HAProxy.

Thanks, did not know that. But they are not configured via UI, aren't they? 🤔

Officially, no. I'm an avid caddy user for years and not looking to change, as I'm very comfortable with config files and cli, but I have to admit Zoraxy looks very slick!

I might give it a try soon, I'm starting to embrace more nice UI to work with although I'll always feel most at home in the terminal

Have fun in trying out :)
