Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Also an option, systemd based, could be to use systemd socket files, which (as far as I understand) opens a dummy socket and starts the matching service as soon as it's requested.
I love systemd.
Is this what you suggest? https://cybso.de/blog/2017-02/how-wake-lan-remote-host-demand-using-systemds-sockets/
This sounds like a proxy that sends a magic packet if it can't reach the service. That sounds great
Basically yeah, though other solutions may be easier or more integrated. Using systemd sockets is especially useful if you want to start a service on the local server that is always on, with a service that uses a lot of resources in the background without other user interaction
