I’m quite happy with audiobookshelf. Sometimes I’m in the mood to listen to a book, sometimes I fancy a podcast and audiobookshelf let’s me do both with little fuss. (and it has oidc support for authentication which means I now authenticate with my single sign on solution)
That’s likely true.
The first I heard of Pangolin was in a conversation that followed on from one about head/tailscale and I accept that I may have jumped to a conclusion. I am certain I’ve seen people talking about using it as a reverse proxy tool. Just found a blog post on the tailscale site talking about how to do it and they’re using tailscale and caddy, rather than everything being handled by tailscale alone, so I’ll accept that I’m wrong on this one. https://tailscale.com/blog/last-reverse-proxy-you-need
I’ve seen lots of talk about headscale, an open source tailscale which allows you to create your own tailnet and I’m sure I’ve seen people talking about using tailscale as a reverse proxy tool, but it’s not something I’ve explored in detail.
Pangolin is somewhat higher on my list of things to explore than headscale though.
If you’re looking for a reverse proxy caddy and Traefik are also widely used.
With all of these solutions though you’re going to need to have some online provider somewhere handling DNS for you so that you can have your domains be pointed to your IP address.
I’ll throw another recommendation behind Karakeep. The fact I can share a page fromy mobile browser or use a browser extension on a laptop/desktop is excellent.
Another great thing for me is the oidc support so I can log in without passwords and rely on my Pocket ID instance and log in using a passkey. (Authelia, Authentic, Keycloak and similar identity providers would work too)
I’ve found that self-hosrinf my own instance has been a very good way of keeping the number of bits, spammers and people that like to take things to the extremes at a nice and consistent 0.
Sure, self hosting your own instance isn’t for everyone but it’s definitely doable and I’m satisfied with my experiences so far.
