I want to host a Vaultwarden (or Bitwarden if necessary) instance, but it keeps asking for a domain and a SSL certificate. I dont own a domain and dont want to enable port forwarding on my router to expose it to the outside.

Is it possible to host a instance only internally and access it via the IP or a domain set on my local DNS? How about SSL is it possible and/or necessary?

    That’s an ecosystem defect that you need a dns name paid subscription to use “institutionally sanctified” certificates.

    My stuff should be made to still work in the apocalypse when San Francisco and Silicon Valley are underwater radioactive craters.
