Hey all, I’ve been slowly building services on my server over many many years, starting with running a minecraft ftb server, to where I am now, which is 1 primary system(providing the network filesystem) and 2 auxiliary minipc systems my brother in law recently donated. I moved from Docker to Docker Swarm after getting those MiniPC’s and enjoying the added compute. Currently my swarm is running:

• PiHole x2 - AdBlocking and Local DNS Management
• Wg-easy - for Wireguard VPN Management
• nginx - for reverse proxy servicing
• authentik - for Authentication and SSO
• Duplicati - for cloud backups(pointing at backblaze buckets)
• Guacamole - for RDP services
• Grafana+Prometheus+Node-Exporter+Cadvisor+AlertManager - for aggregation and system monitoring
• Gatus - single pane of glass monitoring of services(might remove it now that I’ve started using Grafana)
• diun - monitoring docker image versions and notification
• Bookstack - Personal Knowledge Base system
• Linkwarden - Collaborative Link Sharing and archiving
• Fasten Health - Local Health Records Storage
• SnipeIT - personal asset management
• Affine - self hosted cloud notebook
• Actual - Budgeting Software
• it-tools - for swiss army knife utilities
• kitchenowl - recipes and grocery lists
• Reactive resume - for resume building with AI empowered editing
• Onetimesecret - for burn after reading secret sharing(using it for distributing credentials to my family)
• Searxng - Local Search Aggregation
• Homarr - Personal Dashboarding
• Home Assistant - Smart Home Management
• N8n - Automating codeless workflows
• Ollama and Open-WebUI - personal Agentic AI
• AudioBookshelf - Audiobook streaming and Management
• OwnCloud - local file sharing and storage
• Plex - Video Streaming
• BitMagnet - DHT network sniffer
• syncthing - for transporting data between local and remote systems
• the *Arrs - for acquiring content
• Docspell - for digitizing and storing important documents
• picsur - for local meme storage
• Calibre+Calibre-web - for Ebook management
• Crafty Controller - for Minecraft Server Management
• RomM - For Emulation and ROM Management.

As I go about my day I’m always looking for new and interesting containers to run, and then scrutinizing if they fill a need, replace an existing service with a better version of the same service, or if it’s better off not implementing, then I pull them down. this has been a great experience in devops learning and the longer I work on the server the more best practices I put in place and the more I understand why corporate clouds have some of the practices they have. I look forward to poking around in this community looking to help and to find new containers to accrete into my platform.

I’m trying to find something to create Portuguese subtitles for my kids animes, there are a lot of pt_br and I use those when avaliable but there is a lot animes that I can’t find any and I really prefer that they watch in pt_pt ( yes, I’m nagging them to get better in English but read while watching is tricky for them yet)

I will go first 😌

I selfhost codimd, vaultwarden, kuma, immich, home assistant, trilium, hugo, gotify, wakapi and umami. I have one VPS and one custom built NAS at home.

I read you 👀🦎

Host all the things!

Wordpress, SMTP/IMAP, tor, bittorrent, Nextcloud, Plex, NTP, photo galleries, DoT…

I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.

I have a used Lenovo Thinkcentre mini with an i3-7100T and 16gb RAM. I have Ubuntu server LTS installed on it and I run everything in docker containers.

I host:

• jellyfin server for my friends and family
• qbittorrent to download for the JF server(behind a VPN)
• Jellyseerr for requests
• Jackett, Sonarr, and Radarr for downloads
• a Minecraft server

Currently HTTP, XMPP (internet chat) and Minecraft servers.

I started in August. Running docker containers on ubuntu server lts minimal, on a ryzen 3 3200g with 16gb ram.

Running:

• Jellyfin
• RomM
• Kiwix
• Seafile
• Beszel
• Portainer
• WUD
• Pi-hole
• Unbound
• Caddy
• Syncthing
• Tailscale

The domain has no website and no open ports, so Caddy handles routing and automated tls certification via api. External access only via tailscale, per user and per device approval process. Split horizon dns so domain names resolve direct routes to server on lan, and via tailnet from outside.

500GB nvme OS drive rsynched nightly to a second matched nvme in the server. HDD data drives backed up using rsynch to matching sized drives in a DAS unit. Script dumps romm and seafile databases to hdd before rsynch Git pulls to data drive, captured in backup and Syncthing to separate device.

Parallel Pihole and Unbound on a RPi5. RPi5 is primary dns for the lan to spread load, but the config master is the server, RPi is kept in sync with a one way feed from the main server using Syncthing.

Looking into adding openclaw and ollama to play with, maybe use to monitor the server a bit more proactively. Need to plan out permissions and security so nothing dumb happens.

A 6 node k3s cluster with a Synology for network storage running:

• Nextcloud
• Authentik SSO
• Paperless
• Vikunja
• Joplin Sync
• Matrix
• Immich
• Mealie
• Gitea
• Home-Assistant
• Node-Red
• Zigbee2mqtt
• MQTT server
• Frigate
• UptimeKuma
• Prometheus and Grafana
• AdGuard Home
• Minio
• Longhorn
• Unifi Controller
• Jellyfin
• Homepage

Managed with FluxCD.

Wait why is r self hosted soon to be dead?

A cobbled together Ryzen 2400g with 16GB of ram. Open Media Vault/Docker: Plex Nextcloud stack with dns refresh/ssl/nginx Sonarr/transmission stack with VPN PiHole Octoprint

Occasionally I run a game server or two when the need comes up, mostly Valheim lately.

Feel free to take it as a chance to present yourself to the community!

Hello, my name is Zingo and I have a selfhosting addition going back to 2016 when I bought my first NAS with docker capabilities.

Community: Hi Zingo! Welcome!

Thank you.

Currently struggling more than even as it starts to take over my life. I have tried over hundreds of services.

I’ll try to find strength to list some at a later stage in this healing process. Sorry no bonus points. Maybe in the next session.

Thank you all for this awesome support. I would be lost without you. 💓

I joined to learn, still not self-hosting anything, but I intend to use an 11yo Compaq laptop (i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD) as a server while I’m still practicing. I intend to self-host a lemmy instance and a nextcloud server.

Thanks for everything you guys have been sharing I’ve already got some good leads, gonna try out YunoHost for starters

I’m hosting Trillium Note for my personal note taking.
