I have a similar use-case.

What I did for the VPN was to use Wireguard. I configured it using wg-easy, and it’s, well, very easy. What your need to do is:

1. Install wg-easy via Docker.
2. Configure it and create a profile.
3. Open ports in your router to allow port-forwarding the Wireguard tunnel.
4. (Optional). Install a Wireguard client on your cellphone. I use “WG Tunnel”, a FOSS client. Note that the author of the app is a bit of a religious nut, If you care about that kind of stuff.
5. Scan the profile QR generated in wg-easy on your WG Tunnel.
6. Open Navidrome/Jellyfin, and done :)

Let me know If you have any questions, glad to help.

Yeap, that’s pretty much it.

Note that the link you shared has a Google’s user tracker (the part after the ?is links to your identity to create a profile of who you connect with). The clean version is youtu.be/qlcVx-k-02E

I have that exact setup. Let’s suppose you want to use layzer.lan as your domain. The way I did it:

1. Make a DNS record that maps *.layzer.lan to your IP. You can do this by either manually editing your local DNS resolver config file, or hosting a DNS server and adding a a new entry. I did the later, and chose AdGuard for that.

2. Use a reverse proxy. I use nginx-proxy-manager, and added a proxy host for each service you want to access with the link. For example, for my Immich server that is running in port 30041, I added a proxy host such that immich.layzer.lan takes you to 192.168.0.10:30041. Ports 80 and 443 have to be free for nginx to take. You can also add https support from here, and it’s very easy to do if you have bough a real domain.

Less than 24 hours here lol.

I doubt that was my case. I saw comments from Prokbun’s CEO on r/selfhosted that they have a random flag system, and the discussion included my TLD. Plus Cloudflare let me buy it just fine without that intrusive step.

When I tried Porkbun, they asked me for selfie+ID before I could buy a domain there. I think is a random flag, but just a heads up.

I’ve been following reitti for some time. Happily surprised to see you on Lemmy :)

Didn’t knew it allowed live location sharing, thanks for the info.
