Question to #selfhosted people: an obvious thing you may want to do is expose your local (web) services both directly on your LAN, but also from the outside. VPNs are a bit of a pain, and a device memory drain. A solution like Cloudflare zero trust tunnels or Pangolin offer a way of Internet tunnels, but I don’t think you can make them transparently use local network connections when at home? Technically it should be possible have a Internet exposed endpoint running, get TLS certificates there, but also transfer them to a server inside your LAN and through DNS overrides send all traffic through that local LAN server (with the same cert) when at home? Is there anything out there that works this way?

Seems like an obvious idea. Asking before I prototype it myself.

Ok so hey #SelfHosting

I want a #SelfHosted web-type Office Suite ala Google Sheets/Docs and I don't want it to be part of some gigantic resource-chewing albatross like #NextCloud

I would like to do all my Word Processing and Spreadsheeting and so forth through a web interface, which is served from my #Debian server (docker is fine) and saves the documents as normal files in a defined directory.

Does such a thing exist? I do NOT need feature-rich, I do not need it to save MSOffice docs that I can send to a printing shop with all bugs intact, I just want to stop losing shit to hard drive wipes, which I'm sorry but nuking my hard drive is a lifestyle choice at this point and I don't care what you think about it.

I have had the thought that maybe #LibreOffice has some sort of plugin or something which could store files in an Object Storage type thingy that I could self-host instead, cause I've been planning to get some sort of bucket online since forever...

Today while training some sysadmins I shared this real photo of ancient Greek engineers configuring a mailserver.

On the left the brave engineer is trying to stop unauthorised pipelining through the MTA as their knee is viciously attacked by a subtly broken DKIM key. Meanwhile, their co-sysadmin is hammering away at a perfectly good Postfix sender restrictions policy, screaming "It's not DNS!", while bitten by a PTR record quietly hissing "It'ssss DNSssss".
