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.

It fucking sucks. I’ve been hearing about it for twenty plus years and it’s caused me more problems than it’s solved. Comcast DNS routinely breaks connecting to niche sites like Microsoft 365 😑. Its overly complicated and easier to screw up. If turning off IPv6 would stop solving more problems maybe I’d give it a better go, but as it stands it’s like the USB-c standard of a clusterfuck of poor design and implementation in practice.
If DNS wouldn’t constantly break I’d be more open to learning. Right now what’s the point?
And that is the biggest problem it is different then ipv4 and you have to learn new stuff. My worst was up keeps changing the prefix so I had to find out how to write an allow rule that ignored the prefix and only allowed the end but since they always stayed the same.
Lets say you have a bunch of self hosted servers. How are you tracking their ips on ipv6? Are you able to type the ip off the top of your head? I feel like its very simple with ipv4.
Use the names. I connect to my self hosted services all the time over ipv6 using DNS. Still use ipv4 to ssh though as my prefix changes alot,sometimes multiple times a day.
Having used Azure for a few years now I feel like that might not be entirely on Comcast.
Maybe, but I have yet to see another home ISP with the same problem.
