Is using a VPS and tunelling into it really the only way to get past an ISP's CGNAT for selfhosting network applications like #fedi, #email and #irc ? From what I've read, it looks like even DDNS can't help you if you're CGNAT'ed....

@theblacksquid I think hosting over tor hidden services or other overlay networks like Yggdrasil would work, but they require everyone else to participate in that network too to be able to access stuff

@f0x

Am aiming for the server to be an online community that includes non-techie, but still radical, folx. Making it a hidden service might limit the community-building bit more than just being outside of megacorp-owned social media already does...

@theblacksquid yeah definitely. It could be a secondary avenue to access it's content though, in case anything happens to the vps/vpn, which you do kinda really need for the public net in this situation
