  • Honestly, that still would not be enough to change my opinion here about Work From Home. We have the systems and tools at our disposal to make the office life redundant. The notion that work from home employees largely abuse the privilege is simply an opinion without any hard facts to back it up. Indeed it is actually the opposite. Employees are happier and more productive. A minority may abuse the privilege but those are the ones you fire for cause. You don’t end a system that works overwhelming well. That would be kind of like scrapping a car because there is a small scratch on it.

    The old notion of having to punch a clock is over as well!








  • It is very possible to do this! What you need to do is to rent a low-end cloud VPS. Even a 5.00 digital ocean droplet running Ubuntu Linux would do the trick. Then you run an NGINX Proxy Manager reverse proxy with a WireGuard tunnel to the machine that will act as a server for your instance. From there you, you simply set up Let’s Encrypt certificates to use with your intended domain. Even though I am not behind CGNAT, I do this and it works very well.

    EDIT: If you intend to do this entirely in open source and need some help, I’ll offer it. I am pretty passionate about open source and helping others out along the way.
