The only thing I use CloudFlare for is encrypted DNS stuffs, other suggestions for this?
Currently I'm using DeSec.io for my Dynamic DNS and
Caddyas my reverse proxy to automatically handle encryption certificates. It takes a little extra effort setting up a DeSec.io module with Caddy but since I got it working, it's been essentially zero maintenance.Thanks for the rec, I'll have a gander, and try it out next day I have free!
I do want to write up a guide about how to setup Caddy + DeSec.io but I don't have the time at the moment. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I can try to help where I can.
I'll leave you this previous post I made, you might find some additional information in there if you get stuck. https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/51117983
Also, someone suggested using a wildcard cert for the use of any sub-domain names. I chose to learn and use that because it helps obscure my services. If you have any interest in security, it might interest you. It terms of security, it's not the absolute way to protect yourself, but I think it helps when combined with other security measures. If you read the comments in the post, you should get some more insight about it.
