Hi, started self hosting quite a few things and would like a domain to use for when I’m out and about instead of having to remember what my IP is currently. What are the newest providers of services that can accomplish this?
If it’s just for personal use, Tailscale is dead simple. But it doesn’t use your domain; it assigns permanent Tailscale IPs to your nodes. And once you’re connected, it allows you to use your local IPs.
If you want a domain to point to your stuff, I found CloudFlare Tunnels to be very easy to set up. I use it for services that I want to share with others, like Overseerr.
