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.

hey guys

I'm pretty new to this web-stuff

i got a vps where i'd like to install nextcloud. i want it to be reachable via cloud.example.com

i also have a homeserver with octoprint and stuff on it. i'd love to be able to access that with octoprint.example.com

that's what you pros use a reverse proxy for, right? but how do i do that?

install nextcloud with appache and use nginx as the proxy? i guess i could also use haproxy for that as well? what would you recomend as setup?

sadly nginx proxy manager is no option. but is there another easy to config method?

I use both nginx and haproxy, and nginx is much easier to configure. That being said, haproxy has more features, like working as a load balancer with traffic shaping/shifting. But it sounds like you don’t need those features.
