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.

Pleroma, Owncast, Nextcloud, an internet radio station, and a couple web sites.

Local server running my NAS, Technitium DNS, Jenkins + build nodes, OpenVPN, Forgejo, my Debian package mirror, the central LDAP server for auth, Lemmy, and a couple straggler services. Still working on setting up some more stuff for me and my housemates.

Running everything on an old dual Xeon box running TrueNAS, works wonders with no downtime so far!

Dell Optiplex SFF ex office machine..

SearxNG Passbolt Nextcloud Airsonic Wordpress PrivateBin SHLink FreshRSS Gitea Shaarli

All subdomains on apache proxies.. its a bit of a mess though. Whenever it comes to update something I can never remember how I installed it. Theres a heady mix of script installs, deb installs, source installs. I've got Gitea ready to update but I have no idea what method I used to install it :')

Indigo Home automation software

HomeBridge

Time Machine

Plex Media Server

I run a Hubzilla instance on my hosting provider, but that’s probably coming down shortly. Hubzilla is weird, the community is full of grumpy old men, and engagement is low.

I self-host, on a Debian VPS,

  • Commafeed, an online RSS reader (replacement for the long-departed, dearly missed Google Reader)
  • Nextcloud, for file sync (to replace Google Drive)

Considered self-hosting email as well, but dealing with spam is an intimidating prospect. Using Tutanota instead, but it's not entirely satisfactory (the app client is sloooow).

Running Unraid. Adding more slowly. Moved over from an old windows PC hosting a bunch to Unraid last year. Keep adding more Dockers.

  • Plex - Media
  • *Arrs, Sabnzb and QBitorrent for... Linux ISO downloading
  • Minecraft (Vanilla)
  • Minecraft Modded (AllTheMods8)
  • Foundry VTT - For my D&D game

Planning on doing Nextcloud for a NAS feel for non media sharing with Friends

And probably a Calibre or something for eBooks and something for Audiobooks eventually

Unfortunately much less and much less efficiently than I'd like; atm it's Plex on an old Windows 7 laptop, and an SMB/NFS server on a Rock64 with an 8TB external hard drive.

Quassal Core on a linode, but that's cloud VPS, not my hardware, so not really self-hosting, even if I'm directly handling the OS and configuration.

I'd like to set up more. Ideally I'd like to set up two RAID backup servers, at seperate buildings, and have everything within the building back up to the local server multiple times per day, then have the servers perform incremental backups to each other once a day. ideally running on something small and cheap that I can leave in my dad's basment next to his router; "I got backups set up dad, it's this machine, you can pretty much ignore it, but let me know if you happen to notice it not running."

Figuring out Borg would be nice; dad's laptop is of course Windows, which Borg doesn't play nice with, but from the server on his end on, it'd all be linux. I just need to get a couple low-power high-storage boxen built.

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.

  • 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

2 pihole VM for DNS and redundancy 1 opnsense router VM 1 owncloud VM
