Getting it up and running was pretty easy but admittedly I’m starting to hit some snags with split DNS and Authentik. Totally doable but taking a lot of work for sure.
In the process I’m also moving my entire domain to a different name and got timed out by letsencrypt lmao so I guess I’ll try some more tomorrow.
I went with a Racknerd debian 12 box, DigitalOcean is a bit overpriced for what you get. There’s a whole list of recommendations in Pangolin’s wiki iirc
The variant version of number 2, which is more work to set up of course, is Pangolin on a VPS. Basically serves the same purpose but skips Cloudflare entirely.
I’m in the process of setting up Pangolin and Headscale on a VPS to expose a small handful of services and to replace my wg-easy setup. Currently chaining wg-easy through a gluetun container, so with a single VPN connection I get LAN access and protect my outbound traffic, but I can’t for the life of me get the same setup working on wg-easy v15, so I’m going to give tailscale/headscale a try with a gluetun exit node.
Depends on how much you use it. Since I don’t use mine for media, mostly for configs and service data folders, I barely scratch 120GB and I’m literally paying under a dollar a month for it right now.
Definitely adding this and the linked blocklist to my pihole, thanks for sharing!
This scenario is why my offsite backup is primarily a backblaze b2 bucket, while also running a large media backup to an external HDD once a month which I keep in a storage unit. Janky but effective
Realistically I could coordinate with my brother to set up a backup system at my family’s place but it feels like a hassle
I didn’t even know there was a switch version
