For most personal projects, hosting on the cloud may be overkill, but tempting with its supposed ease of use and benefits of scale. Self-hosting is often overlooked as a solution with the benefit of simplicity and cost.
Interesting discussion and demonstration of self hosting the kinds of apps most personal projects will end being.
I selfhost for 2+ years and it is both a job and really cool. We‘re not at real consumer self hosting yet imo but we‘re close.
My setup is around 50 docker containers on two servers. Important (offline) and security conscious stuff at home and fediverse services on a vps.
I‘m currently working on object storage which is a lot of work but its fun and maybe will come in handy too.
You can check my setup on github. Feel free to hit me up if you want to do it too or wanna discuss stuff. You can also see my matrix in my bio.
Have a good one.
Do you have HA run I’ve been trying to think about how to get my stuff running with SSO. One stumbling block has veen Home Assistant’s apparent lack of support for it. Have to managed to find a solution to this? I’ve been thinking maybe I’ll set it behind a proxy like nginx and enforce SSO at that level instead but I’m not sure if it’ll work.
I havent bothered yet but it has been a thing I thought about. I have vaultwarden and my logins are two clicks which is nothing compared to the work I had to put in. :D
But yes, I think proxy level auth should work but dont take my word for it.
