Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It's probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.

Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.

Plex and an FTP/Samba server on a DS418play.

MeshCentral for providing remote IT support. I run it in a lightweight VM on very modest hardware (ancient Core 2 system I had kicking around) and it works great. The sheer breadth of features is damn impressive and I'd consider it among some of the best open source projects in terms of UI. No middleman like TeamViewer or Splashtop, and it only costs me a bit of time and hardware.

Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi

I really want to get something like a Synology NAS to run a media server / VPN server / PiHole / NAS server on, but I don't have $500-$1000 to drop on new hardware right now.

Mostly WordPress sites. But do have experience with Mastodon self hosting

[–] rufus@vlemmy.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Currently running OPNsense on my primary router/firewall appliance, with a WireGuard VPN so I can access my self-hosted stuff remotely without exposing more of an attack surface.

Actual things I’m hosting:

  • Vaultwarden
  • Nginx Proxy Manager
  • Pi-hole

Those are all running on a Libre LePotato.

Currently that’s all the hardware I have, but I’m hoping to expand as time goes on. Next step is setting up a proxmox machine (I have an old desktop but it generates too much heat for where I want to store it)

My general rule is to not self host things that are good enough / free (as in $$ not FOSS). So I don't host email or music. I'm not a huge music person so spotify does the job, and gmail's been great since it started.

Things I do host

  • media server (jellyfin + sonarr/radarr etc)
  • stable diffusion image generation server
  • games (starbound mostly, killed minecraft after microsoft takeover)
  • lemmy
  • comics/manga server (komga)
  • yt-dl web interface

I run Nextcloud for myself and extended family plus a wireguard vpn, airsonic music streaming, calibre web for books and pi-hole for killing ads.

EDIT - pi-hole and wireguard are running on a raspberry pi and the rest on an Ubuntu NUC.

[–] thoralf@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 years ago

Nextcloud, Calckey, HomeAssistant, AdGuard Home, Serge, Octoprint (probably forgot something)

Some of it running in a data center. Some of it running local either on dedicated hardware or on Proxmox.

I use the following a lot:

  • Nextcloud for files, calendar and contacts
  • synapse + a few brudges for IM
  • mail server
  • tandoor for recipes and grocery shopping lists
  • gitea
  • wireguard
  • miniflux
  • rmfakecloud And from time to time:
  • jellyfin
  • wallabag

Tandoor is imho somewhat overlooked and really nice.

I don’t host anything public, but I’ve got two Proxmox nodes hosting various local services in virtual machines . Currently I have

  • My gaming rig, running windows with a GPU passed through. With this I stream games to my laptop, steam deck, tv, etc
  • My router, running Vyos with a dual port nic passed through. The configuration is all done through ansible
  • TrueNAS for general network storage
  • a handful of vms created on the fly for specific projects
[–] finestnothing@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I've been trying to get docker swarm running across my 4 rpi's, but traefik hasn't been able to discover services (can find them on the same node if the network is a bridge, can't find anything with overlay network) which has been frustrating to try to figure out the problem. That said, here is what I plan to host on the swarm:

  • traefik
  • grocy
  • nextcloud
  • vaultwarden
  • plex
  • nginx (portfolio website that I currently just have on GitHub pages)
  • lemmy instance (for some of you beautiful bastards)
  • readarr, sonarr, readarr, lidarr, prowlarr, sabnzb, and qbittorrent
