Wow my internet provider, Videotron, blocks pretty much every port needed when self-hosting (80, 443, 25, 445, 1080, etc).. Someone is about to go see elsewhere!Any recommendations? I'm from Montréal.

@xaviers you can rent a small vps and route stuff through wireguard, it's not amazing but works, i use that to access my home automation stuff without having a public IP

@piggo @xaviers yeah the technique will be the same regardless of specifics. An http proxy or advanced nat situation, and either a random numbered port or a tunnel.Simplest one I can imagine, run a super small webserver in the cloud (or cloudflare/cdn, or Lambda, or Heroku) and set the virtualhost to proxy your home IP on port 8000 which is where your service is actually published.

@piggo @xaviers the non web simplest version would be like a network load balancer in the cloud with the same home IP and port behind the scenesGetting into nat or tunnels in the cloud is a headache IMO

@piggo @xaviers as tunnels go though, zerotier is one of my favorite (and can work even without any cloud stuff, if it's for your internal use)

@wilbr @xaviers i run traefik and have things accessible as subdomains (nginx would work too), but if you're happy with IP and port, that's fine too and easier to set up
