I have finally got my selfhost wiki up to a satisfying shape. Its here: https://wiki.gardiol.org

Take a look i hope it can help somebody.

I am open to any suggestions about it.

Note: the most original part is the one about multi-homed routing and failbacks and advanced routing.

    One of the risks associated with wildcard SSL certificates is the increased attack surface they introduce. If one subdomain becomes compromised, it opens the door for potential attackers to gain unauthorized access to all subdomains secured under the wildcard certificate. (first google link)

      While this argument is valid for a larger domain, it doesn’t really matter for the small selfhoster.

        Using let’s encrypt certbot is so easy and automated that I never bothered for wildcards anyway, so.

          The advantage of wildcard certificates is that you don’t have to expose each single subdomain over internet. Which is great if you want to have https on local only subdomains.
