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.

I run one main hypervisor with a bunch of different Ubuntu server VMs that I spin up as I mess with different things. I'm old-school so I am not a fan of cloud computing or even docker. Services I host that I use the most are NAS (samba), plex, pi-hole, dokuwiki (huge documentation nerd), and zoneminder which is a great open-source security cam software.

Thank you for all for sharing 🀩 I still havent determine if I'm going self hosting at home or with a VPS, but I discovered cool projects!

[–] innercitadel@lemmy.nz 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

VPS (Ubuntu on 4 virtual cores, 10GB ram, 100GB NVME)

  • Mediawiki with semantic mediawiki and various plug-ins and 650 pages
  • Orthantic and OHIF (radiology images)
  • Moodle (docker)

Cloud container provider (different to above VPS provider)

  • 3 x mediawiki sites

Homelab (Unraid on i7 4790, 16gb RAM, 3 x 10TB HDD, 4TB external disk, no cache disk yet, RTX 3070, fractal define 7 mid tower)

  • Plex
  • Komga (comics)
  • Audiobookshelf
  • Kavita and Calibre (books)
  • Photoview (family photos)
  • Filebrowser (work)
  • Cloudflared (zero trust tunnels)
  • Heimdall (dashboard)
  • Krusader
  • Plugins: docker compose manager, docker patch, unassigned devices

Have ordered an N100 mini PC from aliexpress with plans of installing OPNsense and running a couple VMs on it.

My gaming computer for interest, not currently hosting anything: 5800X3D, 7900XTX, 32GB ram, 2TB NVME, 2TB SSD, 4TB HDD, fractal meshify midbtower case.

I also have a Pi 4 and a Pi 3 that I don't have any use for currently. Open to ideas. I already run Adguard on phone and Ublock origin on desktop browser, and don't see any current use for Pihole.

Two "servers"

Pi4-8gb; 1TB SSD:

External-facing

  • Pi-hole
  • home assistant
  • web server
  • Calibre
  • Simple games like Minecraft

Dual Xeon; 96Gb Ram; 50TB; bound NICs:

Internal, mostly

  • media: Jellyfin, -arrs
  • Sabnzbd
  • Steam games server (these are external containers)
  • Looking to add cloud files access; just haven't decided what and how, yet
[–] Ascrod@midwest.social 1 points 2 years ago

I've been working on expanding my homelab recently. I have a physical box at home serving as an LXC host along with a few VPSes. I'm now up to:

  • Some static web sites
  • Nextcloud
  • Jellyfin
  • Forgejo
  • NTFY
  • A reverse proxy
  • An IRC server
  • A Gemini server
  • A VPN
  • DNS servers

I think I read an old blog post once that said "Servers tend to multiply like rabbits" and it's 100% true.

Do you have some massive server home or using VPS/VDS?

Hi

I started self hosting 3 years ago when I got wind of tailscale. I've always cared about privacy and building things so that was great.

My infrastructure consists of two machines.

One - my personal and work server A deskmini i3 12th gen

256GB Boot drive 4TB NVME data drive

-photoprism -syncthing -nextcloud -Firefox+VPN -archivebox

Two - my media server that I let 6ish other people access - PC tower i3 12th gen

512GB Boot and docker config file drive 4*4TB HDD mergerfs for raw data

-jellyfin -*arr suite -gluetun VPN -audiobookshelf (also for auto downloading podcasts) -calibre-web

Hello :)

I'm not really a "selfhoster" but I thought I'd present myself anyway since you asked :D

I do a little bit of it but only for personal use, I don't have the skills to selfhost for public use.

I have Gitea, Planka, Dokuwiki, Apache+MariaDB, and self-compiled World of Warcraft server emulators (TrinityCore, CMangos and AzerothCore).

  • Jellyfin
  • OpenVPN
  • radicale
  • jellyseerr
  • ArchiveBox
  • pydio
  • Nextcloud
  • Ocis
  • pihole
  • CollaboraOffice server
  • Gokapi
  • Seafile
  • Mastodon
  • GoToSocial
  • Signal Proxy

Running xen hypervisor (Debian 12) on a HP Elitedesk 805 Gen6 (currently 10 VMs) at home, a few VPS from different hosting providers too.
