A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Like the title says, I want to replace the IP address in a wireguard .conf file to be a domain instead.

I own a domain through cloudflare, so say I wanted to use vpn.example.org

What DNS record and info do I need to put into Cloudflare? (I am aware I'll need to update it if my ip changes)

It is that easy, like you said. And with Cloudflare and Caddy you can get TLS for your internal VPN hosts. I love that.

LetsEncrypt is a good option if you want to set it up yourself. More work than cloudflare though.

I am using Let's Encrypt. Cloudflare is used for DNS validation.
