Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

It would protect all the services. Instead of having to secure each one, you only expose the VPN server and connect to that. You don't have to worry about North Korean hackers breaching your services if they're not exposed at all, only the single VPN service. Less attack surface, less worry.
And basically useless if you need external users to be able to connect to the services.
This is a scenario where a single node VPN would reduce, not increase OP's security stance. You do have to worry about NK hackers breaching your services because they're all exposed through the single node VPN server. Same attack surface, less knowledge needed to hit the target with the payload.
