I don’t know if this is paranoia, but I don’t read good things on Cloudflare for privacy.
And after some thinking, using OVH VPS is not the best thing to do for privacy…

You got me 😂


I’m going to try your first approach, which seems to be what I want.
The second one looks tempting, but the first one seems to be more secure, I think.


This can be a solution, but only for game servers, and I’m just going to use Tailscale or Netbird for apps.

From what I can see, it’s possible to use this for playing Minecraft with this mod, modflared. Not the best solution, but a working one (I hope).


Help for self host gaming server and some app
Hello everyone :D I’m looking to host some gaming servers to play with my friends (minecraft, enshrouded, and others), and some apps (paperless-ng, jellyfin, seafile, etc.). Each game server must be accessible from the Internet, but only certain applications will be accessible (jellyfin, etc.) I don't want to open any ports on my router or share my public IP. I already have a domain name, and I'm thinking of using some VPS to host a reverse proxy with tailscale or netbird. For the VPS, I'm thinking of using [OVH](https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/vps/) with unlimited bandwidth. I already have the domain name here, and I live in France where the servers are. A few questions : * Is this a good idea ? Any better solution is welcome. * I don't really know how I'm going to redirect subdomains to use the correct reverse proxy. Local DNS on the VPS ? * Tailscale or Netbird ? (I actually don't have any idea) * Won't using Tailscale or Netbird like this cause performance losses on game servers ? Reverse proxy : * nginx for application * [infrared](https://infrared.dev/) or [gate](https://gate.minekube.com/) for minecraft server * Others for different game servers if needed.
