Yo - absolutely!

WG easy posts the GUI on a separate port than the primary Wireguard port you’d need to open in the firewall. I think it’s 51821 - but this can easily be changed depending on if you’re using docker-compose files or a gui like portainer to manage this.

In my case - I am using Nginx Proxy Manager - and it even has it’s own basic password requirement “Access List” availability. With NPM I’m routing that gui over vpn (local dns) but you could put it behind a password with limite security via Access List, or the step beyond look into “middleware” like Keycloak.

I have so far been able to access and post on everyone else’s instance from my own. I do struggle with searching but I’ve considered that to be due to the large amount of people. Example was when beehaw crashed the other day.

So far, it’s been simple enough.

A very valid question I am also interested in knowing. I’m wondering how much management it will be for me - who created his own instance and am having to find all the other communities myself. Or if my instance is doing anything but providing me a unique instance address and name.

Proxmox at home xD

I agree, which is why I offered no solution as of yet… I suppose best we have right now is resounding opinion of ‘most liked’ in a thread. I suppose that would lean itself to revealing the idea which holds the highest consensus.

In some tech groups, it may become feasible for malicious actors to feign intelligence, and that’s partly what I’m hoping this slowly curtails. Use of LLM and the rest in our discourse.

I would be curious if there might be a way to give some sort of “attribute of credibility” that we could come up with.
