I'm curious to hear what others are #SelfHosting! Here's my current setup:
Hardware & OS
- Hardware: #RaspberryPi500 (8 GB RAM, 512 GB SD card) #RPi #RPi500 #SingleBoardComputers #HomeLab
- OS: #Stormux, an accessible #Linux distro based on #ArchLinuxARM #LinuxAccessibility #AccessibleTech
Infrastructure & Networking
- Dashboard: #Glance (#Docker) #DockerApps
- Reverse Proxy: #Caddy
- DNS: #Cloudflare
- Domain Registrar: #Porkbun
- Networking & Remote Access: #Tailscale (non-Docker), love its SSH agent and magic DNS features. #NetworkSecurity
Security & Monitoring
- Ad Blocking: #AdGuardHome (non-Docker). Previously used PiHole but find AdGuardHome slightly faster. #PrivacyTools
- Server Monitoring: #Beszel (non-Docker). Tried Grafana/Prometheus/Alertmanager (accessible but overkill) and Netdata (poor screen reader accessibility). Beszel isn't perfect but best compromise so far. #ServerMonitoring
- Server Overview: #Cockpit (non-Docker)
- Security Tools: #Fail2ban, #FirewallD, #ClamAV, and #Rkhunter (non-Docker). Tried CrowdSec but couldn't get it working on Stormux. #CyberSecurity
- Service Uptime Monitoring: #UptimeKuma (Docker), accessible and easy to use. #MonitoringTools
Authentication & Identity Management
- Authelia (Docker): Just set this up for two-factor authentication and single sign-on. Seems to be working well so far!
- LLDAP (Docker): Lightweight LDAP server for managing authentication. Also seems to be working pretty well!
#AuthenticationTools #IdentityManagement
Productivity & Personal Tools
- Docker Management: #Dockge (Docker). More accessible than Portainer; main issue is built-in terminal isn't readable with screen readers. #DockerCompose
- Docker Logs Viewer: #Dozzle (Docker), great web interface and easy searching.
- Git Hosting: #Forgejo (non-Docker), my personal Git server. #GitServer
- Backups: #IDrive (non-Docker), backs up all my devices easily. #BackupSolutions
- Notes: #Joplin server (Docker). Accessibility improving; love the VSCode extension. #NoteTakingApps
- Bookmarks: #Linkding (Docker). Accessible bookmark manager with good browser extension support. #BookmarkManager
- Recipes: #Mealie (Docker), starting to learn cooking! 🍳📖 #CookingApps
- RSS Feeds: #Miniflux (non-Docker), excellent accessibility. Originally wanted better podcast support but other options had major accessibility issues. #RSSReader
- Automation & Workflows: #N8N (Docker). Haven't explored deeply yet—open to ideas! #AutomationTools #WorkflowAutomation
- Pastebin Service: #PrivateBin (non-Docker). Considering alternatives or CLI tool for easier console access. #PastebinAlternative
- File Sharing & Editing: #Samba (non-Docker), easy file management from my Windows 11 mini PC. #FileSharing #Windows11
- Search Engine: #SearXNG (non-Docker), accessible and searches multiple engines at once. #PrivacySearchEngine
- IRC Client: #TheLounge (non-Docker). Some accessibility issues but best I've found so far for always-connected IRC. #IRCClient
- Read Later Service: #Wallabag (Docker). Biggest issue is Wallabagger Chrome extension doesn't work for me yet. #ReadItLater
Notifications & Development Workflow
- Notifications via: #Ntfy (Docker) and Zoho's ZeptoMail (#Zoho)
- Development Environment: Mostly using VSCode connected to my server via Remote-SSH extension. #VSCodeRemote
Accessibility Focus ♿️🖥️
Accessibility heavily influences my choices—I use a screen reader full-time (#ScreenReader), so I prioritize services usable without sight (#InclusiveDesign, #DigitalAccessibility). Always open to discussing accessibility experiences or recommendations!
I've also experimented with:
- Ollama (#Ollama): Not enough RAM on my Pi.
- Habit trackers like Beaver Habit Tracker (#HabitTracking): Accessibility issues made it unusable for me.
I don't really have a media collection, so no Plex or Jellyfin here (#MediaServer)—but I'm always open to suggestions! I've gotten a bit addicted to exploring new self-hosted services! 😄
What's your setup like? Any cool services you'd recommend I try?

Help Needed with Cloudflare Zero Trust, Pages, and Workers for ReactFlux + MiniFlux Setup
Hi everyone,
I'm new to #Cloudflare and have been trying to set up a #SelfHosted project on my #RaspberryPi 500. I'm mostly self-taught, so I apologize if I misunderstand anything or miss important details. Here's my situation:
Current Setup
- I'm running the self-hosted #RSS feed reader #MiniFlux on my Raspberry Pi 500 (#ArchLinuxARM, installed via Pacman).
- The setup uses #Caddy as a reverse proxy, a #CloudflareZeroTrust tunnel, and Cloudflare Access for SSO.
- My #CloudflareAccess application is configured to allow all origins, methods, and headers. It has a policy that allows specific emails or login methods (e.g., GitHub).
What I'm Trying to Do
- I want to deploy ReactFlux, an alternative frontend for MiniFlux, on #CloudflarePages.
- Before setting it up fully, I tested the ReactFlux demo with my MiniFlux instance at
https://rss.laniecarmelo.tech. However, ReactFlux couldn't log in.
Suspected Issue
I believe the issue is caused by Cloudflare Access protection blocking ReactFlux from accessing the MiniFlux API (
https://rss.laniecarmelo.tech/v1/*).What I've Tried So Far
- I added another hostname (
rss.laniecarmelo.tech/v1/*) to my tunnel configuration and created a new Cloudflare Access application with a policy set to "Bypass" for everyone. However, this didn't work—when testing the API endpoint in a private browser window, I'm still asked to sign into Cloudflare. - I also tried setting up the hostname with "Protect with Access" turned off but got the same results.
- Next, I attempted to use a #CloudflareWorker written in JavaScript to bypass authentication for
/v1/*, but it doesn't seem to be doing anything (or isn't being triggered).
What I Need Help With
- How can I properly configure Cloudflare so ReactFlux can access the MiniFlux API (
/v1/*) while keeping the rest of my MiniFlux instance protected by Cloudflare Access? - I've been stuck on this for a couple of days and would really appreciate any guidance or suggestions!
Thanks in advance for your help!

#MiniFlux users, can anyone help?
Hi all. I'm having some issues with MiniFlux, a #SelfHosted #RSSReader, and hoping someone can help. MiniFlux was working fine until I tried to deploy ReactFlux on the same domain as it, rss.laniecarmelo.tech, on a subpath, /reactflux. This didn't work so I removed ReactFlux. I also migrated MiniFlux from #Docker to #Pacman package, thinking it would be easier on my system. This problem, or a similar one, was occurring before I did that though.
Now, rss.laniecarmelo.tech loads the MiniFlux login page, but when I login, it redirects to a blank page at rss.laniecarmelo.tech/login. I've added trusted proxies and cookie configuration to my miniflux.conf and headers to my Caddyfile, but I still have the issue.
I'm using #Caddy for #ReverseProxy and #Cloudflare for #SSO. Has anyone seen anything like this before? This is on a #RaspberryPi500 running #ArchLinuxARM.
I've checked MiniFlux logs, and it's getting the login requests and creating sessions. I'm not sure what's happening after that. Cloudflared and Caddy seem to be working normally.

🚨 Help Needed: #CORS and #Cloudflare Access Issues with #Nextflux + #MiniFlux Setup 🚨
Hi everyone! I’m struggling with a #SelfHosted setup and could really use some advice from the self-hosting community. Lol I've been trying to figure this out for hours with no luck. Here’s my situation:
Setup
- MiniFlux: Running in #Docker on a #RaspberryPi500 (#Stormux, based on #ArchLinuxARM).
- Nextflux: Hosted on Cloudflare Pages.
- Reverse Proxy: #Caddy (installed via AUR).
- Cloudflare Access: Enabled for security and SSO.
- Cloudflared: Also installed via AUR.
- CORS Settings in Cloudflare Access: Configured to allow all origins, methods, and headers.
What’s Working
- MiniFlux is accessible from my home network after removing restrictive CORS settings in both Caddy and MiniFlux.
- Nextflux is properly deployed on Cloudflare Pages.
The Problem
Nextflux cannot connect to MiniFlux due to persistent CORS errors and authentication issues with Cloudflare Access. Here are the errors I’m seeing in the browser console:
- CORS Error:
Access to fetch at 'https://rss.laniecarmelo.tech/v1/me' from origin 'https://nextflux.laniecarmelo.tech' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Cloudflare Access Redirection:
Request redirected to 'https://lifeofararebird.cloudflareaccess.com/cdn-cgi/access/login/rss.laniecarmelo.tech'.Failed to Fetch:
Failed to fetch: TypeError: Failed to fetch.
What I’ve Tried
Service Token Authentication:
- Generated a service token in Cloudflare Access for Nextflux.
- Added
CF-Access-Client-IdandCF-Access-Client-Secretheaders in Caddy forrss.laniecarmelo.tech. - Updated Cloudflare Access policies to include a bypass rule for this service token.
CORS Configuration:
- Tried permissive settings (
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *) in both Caddy and MiniFlux. - Configured Cloudflare Access CORS settings to allow all origins, methods, and headers.
- Tried permissive settings (
Policy Adjustments:
- Created a bypass policy for my home IP range and public IP.
- Added an "Allow" policy for authenticated users via email/login methods.
Debugging Logs:
- Checked Cloudflared logs, which show requests being blocked due to missing access tokens (
AccessJWTValidatorerrors).
- Checked Cloudflared logs, which show requests being blocked due to missing access tokens (
Current State
Despite these efforts:
- Requests from Nextflux are still being blocked by Cloudflare Access or failing due to CORS issues.
- The browser console consistently shows "No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header" errors.
Goals
- Allow Nextflux (hosted on Cloudflare Pages) to connect seamlessly to MiniFlux (behind Cloudflare Access).
- Maintain secure access to MiniFlux for other devices (e.g., my home network or mobile devices).
My Environment
- Raspberry Pi 500 running Arch Linux ARM.
- Both Caddy and Cloudflared are installed via AUR packages.
- MiniFlux is running in Docker with the following environment variables:
CLOUDFLARE_SERVICE_AUTH_ENABLED=trueCLOUDFLARE_CLIENT_ID=<client-id>CLOUDFLARE_CLIENT_SECRET=<client-secret>
Relevant Logs
From
cloudflared:ERR error="request filtered by middleware handler (AccessJWTValidator) due to: no access token in request"From the browser console:
Access to fetch at 'https://rss.laniecarmelo.tech/v1/me' has been blocked by CORS policy.Questions
- Is there a better way to configure CORS for this setup?
- Should I be handling authentication differently between Nextflux and MiniFlux?
- How can I ensure that requests from Nextflux include valid access tokens?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! 🙏

So far so good. Created a new #Debian server a few days ago. Got the basic config done. So far I've moved my #11ty blog and #Forgejo instance over. I still need to move #Nextcloud, #Miniflux, and #GoatCounter before I can blow away the old #Ubuntu server.
I was considering going with a #FreeBSD server but I need to spend more time with FreeBSD before I'm comfortable with it.
Thought about #Arch too, but decided to keep it simple without overwriting the deployed OS.
