Selfhosted

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.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

WireGuard is blocked by DPI in 10+ countries now. AmneziaWG 2.0 is a fork that makes the traffic look like random noise - DPI can't tell it apart from normal UDP. Same crypto under the hood, negligible speed overhead.

I wrote an installer that handles the whole setup in one command on a clean Ubuntu/Debian VPS - kernel module, firewall, hardening, client configs with QR codes. Pure bash, no dependencies, runs on any $3/month box. MIT license.

Been running it from Russia where stock WireGuard stopped working mid-2025.

Deep packet inspection. Looking for patterns in the actual headers and payload of packets. Computationally expensive.

Thanks to all replyers. My brain came up with dots per inch, which didn't make any sense at all.

It is not as expensive as it used to be.

Deep Packet Inspection

Wasn't sure either, looked it up quickly...

In this context it's probably referring to Deep Packet Inspection, some technique to determine traffic type, and then blocking specific (Wireguard and/or OVPN) traffic.

This baby’s built for deep penetration, not speed!
