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.

How do you guys set internal domains?

Say i dont want to type 192.168.1.100:8096 and want a url instead, say jellyfin.servername - how would I go about that? I don't want it exposed online via reverse proxy. I don't need certs. No port forwarding on the router.

How do I type 'jellyfin.servername' into a browser and being up the jellyfin dashboard?

Cheers. I appear to have something of a mental block with revese proxies. I've used them successfully, but couldn't definitively say I understood them enough to get on with things. I've always had some niche condition on my end that was slightly different to the guide or video I was watching which snafued the process.

I have nginx proxy manager currently up and running and set up wildcards, but no dice on actually mapping anything properly, and there are multiple layers where things can be misconfigured, so diagnosis takes time, which is hard to come by at the moment.

What this post has taught me, is that I need to just spend a weekend playing with reverse proxies enough til they're sunk in. Thanks again for the advice.
