I wanna host everything myself, but also love tailscale, so I’m using tailscale with headscale… It’s so convenient to not open up ports, especially since I don’t have a static IP

I use this for all my services that need to be accessible from the outside world… For my private services I use tailscale + headscale

I’m planning on starting something like that soon since I also wanna build my own router/firewall from scratch and couldn’t be bothered to remember everything about iptables

I personally have a github repo with a folder for each deployment, and the files needed for deployment with a docker-compose.yml, and comments in the files for what they do.

I’ve never had an issue so far. I think it’s a virtualized core, but it functions a fully working cpu with the loads i’ve thrown at it. I do run some light services only, but it works for me.

That looks promising, I’ll look into it.

I run some of my servers on a linux VPS, with the cheapest tier having 2GB ram, 1 CPU core, 50GB storage and unlimited bandwith for rougly €5 per month. It satisfies all my needs since I tunnel most heavy duty to my homelab. The provider is called Vimexx.
