Hello All,

I am really new to selfhosting, trying to learn the basics. I have a raspi 5 with docker installed and a domain. My question is, as I collect all my knowledge from all over the internet, is there a selfhosting guide for dummies? IT would be cool to have some guidance at hand to rfer to when i do dumb shit.

Thanks

    It took me a while to learn that:

    Reverse proxy= your page lives in your basement but only your DNS knows. From outside everyone goes to “my page is cool.com

    VPN= LAN but in WAN…go to Starfucks and you can still get your files from your basement’s NAS

    I’m sure they got other meanings, but this frame helped me a bit. Hide your IP!
