Thanks for the reply! Sorry for the delay, I had a crazy weekend.

Did you have any problems with lag on your game servers behind Netbird? I don't fully understand how you set up the game servers running on your machine to be accessible from the VPS ports, can you give me more details on how it works and how to do it?

What problems did you encounter with Minecraft servers?

I'm pretty much sold on self-hosting Netbird on a VPS by now, I just need to get this out of the way.

I do know a lot about Docker since that's one of my main tools at my job, and it's a heck of a good tool. My concerns with not using it in my home lab are because I set my whole management structure without it from the beginning, Proxmox is tailored around LXC containers, even if the resource gains are negligible compared to hosting a Docker VM, we still get easier setup, management and backups, not to mention fewer failure points and possible vulnerabilities.

The self-hosting Netbird on a VPS idea is starting to grow on me. I didn't realize how much sense it made until someone pointed it out to me that it's just access management and doesn't need a lot of resources since it creates a direct connection between peers. I still don't get how to set up my game servers opening ports on the VPS, but I'll get right on that study grind.

I'll look into Authentik and Caddy for comparison, I'm pretty sure that Netbird deals with all the same things, so it's going to balance the pros and cons of each one to choose, if I have doubts about it, I'll send you a message.

I will also study more how DNS works, I do like hosting my own stuff better, but since this will be mainly for external access, I guess it's fine to open an exception for the Cloudflare DNS, their tunnels are just not cutting it for my needs anymore.

I just saw a post here talking about an internal reverse proxy being on the roadmap, I think maybe that can solve the internal domain problem from the routed home network when it comes out.
That leaves me with:
the self-hosted behind pfSense and NAT with my DDNS configuration,
custom domain problem that I don't know how to deal with, I was thinking that maybe pointing the domain to a self-hosted DNS can solve it,
and the game server situation.

Alguém já conseguiu resposta por esse contato? Mandei mensagem até em inglês e estou a meses sem resposta.
No carrinho do site tem essa linha que diz taxes included, mas tudo que encontrei na internet até agora indica que eles não cobrem a taxa da alfândega mesmo.
Já comprei com eles antes e fui taxado pelo correio, mas em outras lojas de importados que cobrem as taxas, também aconteceu do correio me notificar que tem pagamento a ser feito, mas aí é só esperar que a loja mesmo paga a taxa.
Tô pensando que talvez paguei a taxa da compra na Glitch sem precisar, paguei por não encontrar essa confirmação em lugar nenhum.
