Selfhosted

Unifi controller is the only 'real' service I actually keep running. I have various VMs running on Proxmox that I mostly use for testing. Even though I have two physical servers with plenty of compute and memory available, backed by a large NAS and all of hanging off a UPS, I just don't feel comfortable in self-hosting things I deem critical.

Pi4 with an usb->m.2 1TB drive with nextcloud. Has been working like a charm so far

a wiki for a fraternal organization...

On my "home server" (an old office PC we were about to throw into the junk at work that I installed OpenMediaVault on):

• Portainer (Docker container manager)
• AdGuard Home (DNS-based ad blocker)
• Audiobookshelf (Audiobook library)
• Bitwarden (Password manager)
• Jellyfin (Media server)
• Kavita (eBook library)
• LetsEncrypt + NGINX (SSL cert + reverse proxy)
• Nextcloud (cloud storage, notes, calendar, contact and browser bookmark sync)

And on my Pi 4:

• Home Assistant (smart home management and orchestration)

• Home Assistant
• Pi hole
• Plex
• NAS storage
• Sonarr/Radarr/etc
• Calibre

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.

How about what I'm not self-hosting? Lemmy. If anyone has an up to date guide on self-hosting a single user instance of lemmy that is actually easy to follow, that would be great. I just want to control my user account.

I've got 3 "servers" at the moment running lots of fun services.

Dell Optiplex Tower

• Sevarr Suite
• Audiobookshelf
• Calibre/Calibre-Web
• Nextcloud
• FreshRSS
• Paperless
• Linkding
• Dillinger
• HomeAssistant
• Mealie
• WikiJS
• Gitea
• PiHole
• Homepage

Old Laptop

• Project Zomboid Server
• Minecraft Server
• copyparty
• Tinfoil/NUT

Raspi4

• Klipper/Mainsail
• Obico
• VanDam

I also run Plex off of my Desktop, but I plan to build a new server soon to replace the Optiplex that I can migrate it to. I'm also going to be integrating Authentik. Everything is managed using Yacht and running on Ubuntu, then proxied through Cloudflare or tunnelled through Tailscale.

• NAS: TrueNAS
• HomeKit Bridge: HomeBridge
• Spelling/Grammar: LanguageTool Server
• DBs: MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Influx
• In-memory caches: Memcached, Reddis
• Dashboards/Alerting: Grafana
• File Storage/Sharing: Nextcloud
• Metrics/Logs: Prometheus, Mimir
• Media: Plex

Most of these are run on a RPi4 cluster (Consul as mesh/discovery, Nomad for orchestration). This list doesn't include stuff on the router/firewall (WG, DNS, filtering, blah blah blah... )

• buildbot for archlinux package builds
• dovecot with fetchmail for mail retrieval
• fail2ban with very strict rules against all those bots
• gitea for my own projects
• home-assistant with some usual backend stuff like knxd, zigbee2mqtt, mosquitto
• navidrome for the music collection
• nextcloud with very few apps
• vdr for recording TV shows from satellite with a smartcard reader for the local television smartcard
• octoprint on the 3D printer
• pacoloco, an archlinux package cache
• paperless for document management
• teamspeak

All services are configured and deployed using saltstack and monitored with sensu. I do not use containers but I have all services hardened by hardening the systemd service and/or apparmor profiles.

Backups are done using btrbk.

Intel nuc10i7FNH on Ubuntu Pro running Plex, Tautulli, and a Fabric Minecraft server.

RPi3b+ running pihole/unbound and PiVPN

• email - postfix, dovecot, roundcube (mostly unused), rspamd
• vpn - firezone for managing wireguard, v2ray
• web analytics - offen
• password manager - vaultwarden
• status monitor - uptime-kuma
• cloud - nextcloud
• music streaming - navidrome
• seedbox - qbittorrent with vuetorrent webui
• media streaming - jellyfin
• docker container registry
• firefox sync server
• lemmy instance

Couple of Dell and Lenovo mini PCs

• Custom browser start page
• File server
• Media server with Tonido
• Jellyfin
• Vectorpod

The other machine just has random VMs for testing things like:

• Owncloud
• LAMP
• Whatever else I run into

I host a minecraft server for my family

Intel nuc (dont know which one exactly) running MineOS.

I have a dedicated server where I run multiple service with podman.

• Funkwhale (we share musics with a friend)
• Mobilizon
• Lemmy
• Pleroma

All those instance are close for inscriptions they are just for me or friends. I use posftix to relay mail. I have on postgresql instance shared across the services. I use traefik for ssl, I wanted traefik to auto discover the container but it didn't work when I tried maybe it works now.

I have a slightly different setup personally! I am actually happily running a Windows Pro server.

For my Drivepool redundant storage, I am utilizing a cool tool I came across years ago called https://stablebit.com/DrivePool and I've been really happy with it!

I RDP into my server a lot for coding projects, and misc things, almost like a secondary computer. Additionally, I enjoy being able to Steam stream several games from it to my phone or laptop on the go. A surprising number of games are playable in this fashion.

Outside of that, I do selfhost multiple serices:

• Plex, I actually heavily use it as a self-hosted Youtube alternative by leveraging yt-dlp and some personal tooling I wrote that collates downloaded youtube channels into Collections within my Plex (No ads!) -- Shameless plug tomy tool - https://github.com/KJBurnett/plex-youtube-channel-collections
• Rocket.Chat for chatting with my close friends
• code-server - a self-hosted vscode environment. You can literally code on an iPad with the capability and power of a Ryzen 7 behind it. Very cool and fun.
• gitlab (although it seems fairly heavy for my needs, unsure.)
• Overseerr - Movie/tv show requesting web app tied into my Plex
• airsonic - Plex also does music but sometimes it seems to be pretty resource heavy. I run Plex with Plexamp simultaneously with airsonic for the service redundancy currently.

A Groovy bot replacement for me and my friends.

Well, I'm not running it currently for reasons, but I used to host a Jellyfin media server on my desktop, but that was inconvenient as it was the desktop I was actually using. Eventually I switched from Pop!_OS to Fedora which lacked Jellyfin transcoding support and I had to stop hosting it. In a few days I should get a 1050ti to complete the setup and then I will be back up and running on my first dedicated server. I will probably look in to hosting a mail server, a nas, bitwarden, and possibly a librex or searx search engine on it once it is up and running. It is an old system with 3gb of ddr2 and an athelon 64 x2 from 2005 but it should do the trick for everything I want out of it. Right now I am just hoping that the new GPU doesn't trigger current protection on the cheapo PSU that is in there.

Edit: I'm also going to set up an i2p seedbox for obscure torrents.

• Plesk (web stack) - almalinux 8
• Work VM - Windows LTSC
• arrstack - Docker
• Ghost - Docker
• Convos - Docker
• Unraid
• ESXi with vSphere

I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things, but that's mostly what I host here at home. My lemmy instance is on DigitalOcean.
