Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to the selfhosting community so I'm
open to feedback/possible improvements.

My main server specifications:
- Intel Core i5 6600
- 250GB SATA SSD
- 8GB DDR4 RAM
- MSI H170 Gaming M3
- GTX 1050 OC (disabled in OS, because no need)
- 650W PSU (Platinum rating)

It's connected to a router with WireGuard, it connects to Mullvad
servers, then it tunnels to cloudflare (obviously behind the router).
It's running a LEMP stack and phpmyadmin. I've configured my firewall
so SSH connections can only be made from the local network + disabled
root login, 'Nginx Full' (80, 443) is only allowed from Cloudflare
IPs.

All traffic through the site is proxied through cloudflare, and before
cloudflare reaches my ISP, it reaches Mullvad which in theory should
make me unreachable from external connections.

What do you think?

If you like it and it works for you, that’s all that matters…..why
care about anyone else’s opinion of your server?!?

What are you trying to do with it?  Might help people give some
suggestions.

If it’s to run a few containers your processor is fine, you might want
more memory.
