[GUIDE] Free Dynamic DNS + Nginx Proxy Manager + Lets Encrypt Wildcard Certs
This plugin for dynamic DNS: https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns, supports any of these DNS providers you find on this page https://github.com/orgs/caddy-dns/repositories?type=source. You can use DuckDNS for example which is also a free domain.

Repurposing an old Android phone as a web server
Sure, you can do this with nginx and dynamic DNS if you really want to, but Caddy does it all for you, with automatic HTTPS, and runs natively on Android (or in Termux): https://caddy.community/t/running-caddy-2-on-android/13993?u...
Here's the dynamic DNS plugin: https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns -- it will just update the A records for your domain directly with your DNS provider, no need for a third-party service.

Show HN: Umbrel – A personal server OS for self-hosting
Re 3: What you really need is Caddy [0] with this dynamic DNS module: https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns
Caddy has state-of-the-art certificate automation and TLS support, and with that module, it automatically updates DNS records if users have non-static IPs. It'll also serve certs for localhost domains (use *.localhost IMO).

Anyone want to help me build an idiots guide to getting caddy setup for reverse proxy and SSL?

CUP - Cloudflare (DNS) Update Program | Turn Cloudflare’s excellent free DNS service into a free Dynamic DNS service.
Neat. I had a similar frustration so I wrote a dynamic DNS module for Caddy; https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns - it can be extended to work with any dns provider that has an api. (It's what I currently use with Cloudflare)

Deploy Node.js applications on a VPS using Coolify
When I came across Coolify, I thought of giving it a try. I am aware of Dokku, but I never really tried it because it doesn't have a UI. I work primarily as a UI developer, so having a nice UI to work with is a plus for me.

The Hater's Guide to Kubernetes
I run all my projects on Dokku. It’s a sweet spot for me between a barebones VPS with Docker Compose and something a lot more complicated like k8s. Dokku comes with a bunch of solid plugins for databases that handle backups and such. Zero downtime deploys, TLS cert management, reverse proxies, all out of the box. It’s simple enough to understand in a weekend and has been quietly maintained for many years. The only downside is it’s meant mostly for single server deployments, but I’ve never needed another server so far.

Netlify just sent me a $104K bill for a simple static site
Yeah there are a bunch of selfhostable things:
Caprover (https://caprover.com/)
Dokku (https://github.com/dokku/dokku)
But people still choose Netlify and Vercel for ease of use I think.
Maybe we need something that's just Netlify. The closest I've seen to the "right" UX is Ness:

The 2024 Web Hosting Report
The modern iteration of these tools has taken the developer experience learnings from the Platform as a Service (PaaS) category, and will bring them to your own VM, giving you your own personal PaaS. Example of this include Dokku, Coolify, Caprover, Cloud66 and many more!
- Ask HN: Is there an open source alternative to Digitalocean app platform?

Ask HN: How are you hosting multiple small apps?
Based on the fact that your ideal is to have a similar experience to heroku than managing your own server setting up reverse proxies take a look at these options:
1) https://dokku.com - lets you turn your light sail instance basically into heroku
2) https://render.com
3) https://fly.io
4) If you have aws credits this is their heroku equivalent: https://aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk
above is not what I do but would be the options I would pursue if I understand your preference and requirement correctly.
