This is basically my vision of how to bring self-hosting to the masses.
Upcycle an old Android phone. Install apps for Nextcloud, Jellyfin, etc. Do a quick OAuth2 flow with your domain name provider to tunnel a subdomain directly to the app, and you have an end-to-end encrypted private cloud.
For this to work we need:
* Simpler domain name providers targeted at consumers instead of IT professionals. You shouldn't need to understand DNS records to use a domain.
* An open protocol for setting up tunnels[0].
* Nextcloud et al need to implement the protocol on their end. For open source projects 3rd parties can make wrappers.
