Which server setup for kids and friends? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hey, does anybody host a server for players outside the home network? At home, we have the server running of the "player 1" laptop and connect via local IP. For external players, I am hesitant to expose our network and am considering a VPS.

Do you have any recommendations? Thanks!

That would take me to trust the devices of my kids' friends, which is not the case. Feel like the current gen does not understand their way around computers and potential risks. Only know how to use a tablet and use highly processed content 😄

    Why would it require that you trust the end devices? If that is the case you are configuring it wrong.

    Just set it up to only route traffic that matches the IP address of the server. You could use pure wireguard or something like Netbird.
