Hello nerds! I'm hosting a lot of things on my home lab using docker compose. I have a private repo in GitHub for the config files. This is working fine for me, but every time I want to make a change I have to push the changes, then ssh to the lab, pull the changes, and run docker compose up. This is of course working fine, but...
Yeah ok. First of all, because I can 😁. I mean z what's good being an IT nerd if I can't change stuff when I want?
Jokes aside, I've been reading more recently on matrix and looks like there are some security issues in the design of the app/protocol. I'm on mobile now, I'll look for sources when I'm on pc.
Also I don't like that it is a server centric system (so data is primarily on the server instead of the clients).
Also it takes more resources than I was expecting. For less than 10 users I can't have less than 4gb of ram (on a dedicated debian server, running docker) or it swaps so much it kills the system.
So basically I'm testing out if xmpp is a better system for those issues.
I know exactly what you mean. Just for general information, I've found another android client that I think it's better than Conversations. It's called Monocles chat (and it's on f-droid).
On matrix/xmpp I install the whatsapp bridge. I can convert a few close family members but no way everyone. For me it's an acceptable compromise. I get the close members to use my servers/apps, everyone else through the bridge so I can at least have all the chat in one place

Having multiple interfaces in each vm can lead to issues with routing if you screw something up.
Like you said I'd expose the services via reverse proxy in the public vlan, and enable ssh access on the firewall only from a jumpbox or the ip of your pc (or maybe the vlan you are in).
Proton a few years ago disclosed the IP address of the user of a certain mailbox upon request by LEA. That was enough to get the person found and arrested (I don't remember what the case was about). They HAVE to comply with these requests, but they DON'T need to log/retain those info ETA: and I was wrong, thanks @Cheradenine to set me straight. But I think the point still stands. I don't want to be ALWAYS be tied to a VPN, there are some scenarios where I can't use a VPN.
That was the moment I decided to selfhost my email server.
and maybe do a little self-analysis and think WHY that happened. If they all react that way, maybe it's you.
ETA: or maybe you are in the wrong crowd as well!

My last boss was labeled "THE FINAL BOSS" in my contacts. When she'd call, I felt sheer disappointment and dread when Sephiroth's theme, "One-Winged Angel" started playing.
my 6 months old nephew wailing scream. Once I left the phone on my desk and walked to the copier. The phone started wailing. My desk buddy knew what that scream meant, and brought me the phone, thus filling the whole office with baby screams.
So..in a short sentence...the title. I have a server in a remote location which also happens to be under CGNAT. I only get to visit this location once a year at best, so if anything goes off...It stays off for the rest of that year until I can go and troubleshoot....
I've been told that zerotier is even better. Haven't tried it myself (it looks more complicated to selfhost) but the guy suggesting it knows waaaaay more than me on these things. Just if you want to look into another option.
For what it's worth (from a random guy on the internet) selt-hosting tailscale is quite easy! 🙂
