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.

I've got a Nextcloud instance that I've run for a few years. Love it. At home I have an Odroid H3+ with 64GB of ram running Openmediavault. Got about a dozen containers running on that. I need to play with it more and use that ram. I did try to get Boinc running on it but it, sadly, kept shutting down. I'll have to find a another way to contribute to science.

This assortment is run under a combination of Proxmox LXC containers, docker containers, and Yunohost. Mostly I use it to play around, but most are heavily used by my wife and I. I'm planning to rebuild everything and making things more "official". Looking to convert from a "lab" to actually making it "production" with solid failure routes and backups. I am looking to move anything currently under Yunohost to docker/lxc and to start making use of podman. Recently saw CosmOS and think it might be a good alternative to portainer.

Hardware:

  • Node 1: Lenovo m93p tiny with 16GB RAM and 250GB SSD - Proxmox
  • Node 2: Lenovo m93p tiny with 16GB RAM and 250GB SSD - Proxmox
  • Node 3: Gigabyte Brix with 16GB RAM and 500GB Sata SSD, 128GB m.2 SSD - Proxmox
  • Node 4: Trigkey Green G3 with 16GB RAM and 1TB Sata SSD - Proxmox
  • TPLink managed switch
  • TerraMaster 2-bay NAS with 2x 2TB HD (NFS host for containers)
  • Synology ds220j NAS with 2x 8TB HD (backup of home desktops, laptops, cell phones, and lab systems)

My main machine is running Linux Mint on a Ryzen 2700x, 32gb ram, 80TB of raw storage and a vega 64 GPU.

Running:

  • Home Assistant
  • Emby Server
  • Photoprism
  • Piwigo
  • The usual NZB suite
  • FTP Server for uploading cellphone pictures automatically at night time
[–] JshKlsn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Photoprism

You should give Immich a go. It's infinitely better.

[–] Scrappy@feddit.nl 1 points 1 year ago
  • Home Assistant (running on RPi, proxied to VPS)
  • Zigbee2MQTT (running on RPi)
  • NodeRed (running on RPi)
  • Joplin (VPS, opensource note taking app)
  • Minecraft modded modpack (VPS, statech 1.0.3) Probably a couple more I'm forgetting.

This is all in docker containers behind a reverse proxy using Traefik. Im happy with the setup as it's really versatile and so far hasn't failed me. Biggest upgrade I've done is replacing the SD card of the RPi with an SSD

At home on multiple Pis: OpenMediaVault HomeAssistant Raspbee (Zigbee module) Unifi controller

Server 1 (Ubuntu): Wireguard

Server 2 (Ubuntu): Nextcloud Trillium Gitea Vaultwarden Calibre Web Vikunja Photoprism Paperless

All services only run on the Wireguard interface.

And I am looking into some billing tools for my side-gig.

Currently: RPi4 with CasaOS, running Pihole and Home Assistant, which I honestly rarely use, unfortunately.

Potentially planned: -Jellyfin -Rustdesk server -Some samba solution on RPi4 for my hdd I currently have hooked to my router, any advice on what I should look into for that would be appreciated.

My lemmy instance :)

I used to self-host email with email and postfix, but I gave up with the amount of spam coming my way and moved to Proton

[–] nieceandtows@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I have a jellyfin server on a pi4. I recently bought a dell micro pc, but haven't had the motivation to move the jellyfin server over to it yet.

[–] yara@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I'm running truenas scale as hypervisor (migrated from proxmox to try to save electricity costs)

  • Opnsense as Firewall
  • Ansible (debian)for Patching and infrastructure management
  • zabbix (debian) for monitoring
  • plex (debian) media server
  • Omada controller (access points) (ubuntu)
  • homeassistant (hass OVA) for home automation
  • nginx (debian) as reverse proxy
[–] dodo@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I'm self-hosting some stuff on a yunohost server but i plan to switch to start9 once they add support for clearnet.

  • Nextcloud
  • Jellyfin
  • Calibreweb
  • Email (though I don't really use it)

I would be hosting more but our internet is too slow for anything else to really be effective.

[–] aZra@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Paperless NGX on a Raspberry 4. No more paper documents at home... Everything that still comes by mail is instantly scanned and shredded. Emails are also scanned and attachments are added automatically, if important.

[–] RelativeArea0@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I got 2 q+ tv boxes running armbian for h6

1st one runs as my dns server + sinkhole via technitium (pihole is a bit janky on them idk why) 2nd one runs as my unifi controller + samba fileserver + torrent downloader

Reason why i went with this is because they are cheaper than sbc or 2nd hand laptop

Fun part is that they are running at 20w/h in total

  • Heimdall
  • Home Assistant
  • Plex
  • Nginx Proxy Manager - ram hog
  • Adguard
  • NodeRed
  • ZWaveJS
  • Zigbee2Mqtt
  • Portainer
  • qBittorent
  • Ring-MQTT

Running on a minisofurm mini pc with 5600h, paid $219 and used spare drives and ram lying around. Used to run 2 raspberry pi 4s but retired those due to updating home assistant via docker getting really old. Proxmox handles things great, like the flexibility and performance boost too, especially just pulling docker images lol, unarchiving was so painful on pi 4.

Part of my Reddit exodus plan was to get serious about my RSS setup.

I've settled on:

  • FreshRSS as my feed manager (supported by Reeder app in iOS and MacOS)
  • FiveFilters Full Text extractor
  • rss-proxy site scraper

I may experiment with some replacements for rss-proxy, as I've run into a couple sites it doesn't scrape well, but FreshRSS and FiveFilters have been smashing successes.

[–] Ungoliantsspawn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I will look into FiveFilters, sounds like it would solve some issues for me. Thx

[–] kresten@feddit.dk 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I plan on getting a server this summer (building it myself), and the things I have planned this far:

  • bitwarden
  • monica
  • minecraft
  • factorio
  • email server
  • maybe pihole
  • maybe lemmy
  • jellyfin

Edit: forgot jellyfin

[–] ron3ats@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Wait wait wait. A Bitwarden server? Please elaborate on what this is and the benefits of it? I use Bitwarden for everything and if there's a more secure route, sign me up!
