I spun up a Streisand server on a Digital Ocean VM years ago, it worked pretty well. I eventually replaced it with Algo[1] which has also worked nicely.

There’s Dev-Sec which is more about multi-OS-platform as well as multi-IaS (Ansible, Puppet, Chef).

Covers SSH, NGINX, Apache, Windows hardening, MySQL, and Linux hardening.

Free, to boot.

This was never quite the right model. Too many services increase the surface area of attack. My recommendation for a personal vpn is algo: https://github.com/trailofbits/algo

I generally agree about the surface area of attack, but this project was supposed to be aimed more at censorship circumvention. Algo may help with that, but I doubt it will get past a well funded government agency, e.g. in the Middle East or China.
