Since it is not designed for individual selfhosters, I'm wondering if any groups are actively attempting to run it together? Idea sounds cool, but I'm wondering about practical execution.

So, are you using a domain you've registered for the site with cloudflare?

Genuine question, so please don't be mean to whoever responds. Better to learn than to judge.

Curious if people who are on Cloudflare are considering any selfhosted alternatives? If not, interested to hear what is a deal breaker in regards to using a service besides Cloudflare. I do hear a lot of praise for Cloudflare when facing DDOS, and always happy to learn more!

You tried any similar tools before Pangolin?

[–] kiol@discuss.online 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

When you say easier, do you mean because of the integrated webui?

[–] kiol@discuss.online 1 points 1 month ago

I honestly find the fact that happens annoying, haha. Totally get it.

Right, it could be a pairing for a VPN to connect services in the VPS and homelab

[–] kiol@discuss.online 3 points 1 month ago

Fair, but it can pair a VPN

The actual post is below. That is just Lemmy rendering the description from the link. Filed an issue: https://code.castopod.org/adaures/castopod/-/issues/575

[–] kiol@discuss.online 2 points 1 month ago (4 children)

That is just how Lemmy handles Castopod. Nothing to be done about it afaik.

[–] kiol@discuss.online 2 points 1 month ago

Do you find they cover different use cases? Would it make sense to just selfhost Netbird, or to use a selfhosted Netbird in place of Pangolin?

[–] kiol@discuss.online 8 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Guess lemmy just pulls in all those notes, but still curious on how people like running these services. Headscale is a really nice project, but so are Netbird and Pangolin. I've been enjoying Netbird, but heard some people run into battery drain issues on clients. Was curious what other sorts of things crop up for people running these services themselves, or if it is smooth sailing.

Headscale - The main objective of Headscale is to provide a non-proprietary implementation of the Tailscale protocol & control server for hobbyists and self-hosters. Acts as a replacement for the listening servers while allowing you to continue using your existing clients applications. Funnel functionality is currently considered in beta status. Does not include a web ui by default.

Netbird - Connect your devices into a secure WireGuard®-based overlay network with SSO, MFA and granular access controls. You can try their hosted service or selfhost it, or whatever.

Pangolin - is a self-hosted tunneled reverse proxy server with identity and context aware access control, designed to easily expose and protect applications running anywhere. Pangolin acts as a central hub and connects isolated networks — even those behind restrictive firewalls — through encrypted tunnels, enabling easy access to remote services without opening ports or requiring a VPN. Combines traefik reverse proxy with Single Sign On and Wireguard. Meant to be selfhosted, but they do offer a hosted instance.

Pin codes, temporary links, password links for exposing services as a “funnel”. Similar to cloudflare tunnels, where users cannot be bothered to sort things out and just want a service exposed.

Looking to expand the community around Linux Prepper podcast and Living Cartoon Company. Tabled at #SeaGL20205 and considering more conferences in the future; will probably submit to give more presentations on creating theatre shows with Living Cartoon Company as well. Also seems like people have difficulty with notifications directly from Castopod, which is the fediverse actor at @linuxprepper@podcast.james.network
