Figured I’d give Netbird a go, glad I did because I can self host extremely easily by using the new services feature.
You specify a subdomain, point to a peer, specify a protocol and port, and you are good. NetBird fetches you the certificate and your site goes live fast.
I can use my Immich with my mobile data now.
I’ve been using Pangolin since it came out … to make my services available without opening ports, but I also use Netbird for VPN access.
Is their DNS forwarding “resources” stable? Last I heard it was in beta only … if I can eliminate one more piece of software that I have to admin and maintain, that’d be great.
I tested pangolin to replace wireguard on my VPS but the problem with pangolin is that is not designed to allow external devices like a mobiles is more about to connect sites.
Tried netbird and is a great piece of software tons of options and with the new added reverse proxy is the perfect replacement for wireguard my only turn down was that exposing services unlike pangolin that let you have link like service1.domain.com in netbird is service1.proxy.example.com.
I use both. Pangolin for anything that absolutely requires an external connection, netbird for internal.
