I’d really like to run my own instances of #mastodon and #matrix, as well as access all my software on my home server without a VPN, but I’m too nervous to expose my home server to the internet.

I just don’t see a way of getting around the need for constant vigilance if I do that.

You can have a look at linode. They have one click deployment so you can get used to the back end controls an see if you would be comfortable configuring it in you dmz.

@blackfireburns Maybe I'll check that out, thanks.

The home deployment thing is just a bit of an unknown for me. Given I have only one home server right now, how I'd manage it all is a bit confusing. I guess put one interface in a different vlan, assign a new subdomain to that ip, and have a completely separate load balancer to my "normal" one?
