Comment on Selfhosting Sunday! What's up?

I have finally taken the time to get rid of tailscale today, while i love the software, the people building it and how magically easy they have made networking - there have been too many hiccups that have made me want to switch away. Such as, terrible battery optimization on Android phones(up to 20-30% battery drainage a day) no idea how this is an issue as normal Wireguard barely drains 1-3% a day.
Now running a Wireguard server off my brand-spanking new UDR7 (what a dream this machine is to use). Got that set up with DDNS and a custom domain. I’m extra happy i managed to find a good way around not having to use Cloudflare as that feels like selling my soul to the devil. So shoutout to DynV6 for being a really great service, free, simple and allowing custom domains.
Ive combined that with Caddy on my server, so now im able to get sub.domain.com on my local network aswell as over wireguard remotely! Next weekend will be dedicated to learning Pangolin 🤟
