Selfhosted

Can't ask too much off my little laptop, but here it is

• HomeAssistant
• Frigate NVR
• PiHole
• Wireguard VPN

• Caddy (web server)
• Agate (gemini server)
• FreshRSS (rss reader)
• Yarr (rss reader)
• ergo (irc server)
• akkoma
• prosody (xmpp)
• conduit (matrix)
• nextcloud
• soju (irc bouncer)
• gamja (irc web interface)
• qbittorrent-nox
• unbound/dnsmasq
• isso (selfhosted comments server)
• smbd and nfs server
• pivpn wireguard
• minecraft stuff in seperate ubuntu vm:
• pterodactyl panel
• pterodactyl daemon
• probably something else I forget
• currently just running a monero miner as I have not been playing minecraft recently.

Hardware: Main server Ryzen 7 3900XT with 64GB of ram, two 240GB ssds running in raid1, two 4tb hard drives running in raid1, running proxmox with mostly alpine linux VMs

Secondary Server: Intel nuc running alpinelinux, only running secondary unbound/dnsmasq server so if my main server goes down, dns still works.

Late 2013 iMac: I was using it to run an iMessage to matrix bridge but I was not able to get it to work so now I just vnc into it to text. (suggestions welcome as vnc is annoying)

I also have another intel nuc that does not do anything.

All of these servers are connected to an APC back-ups UPS.

I have been self hosting things for over 15 years. I now host on 7 computers. I'm proud of the fact that I stay under 100W idle, including 3 Omada WLAN APs and network technology (all via PoE and all is on a UPS). For most of the services i normally used the helper scripts. i'm currently in the process of moving everything to komodo. there should be an lxc for each service or service group, komodo pulls the compose files from gitea and deploys everything.

Proxmox pve0: M910x i5.7500 4x3,4GHz, 32 GB RAM, 256 GB NVMe

i'm happy to have found an entry point and an alternative to reddit here, even though my second post (question about suitable hardware with 32 answers) has already been deleted. hello everyone!

I dabble in the ARRs, plex, jellyfin, emby nextcloud. I have an old supermicro server 2014 I got on eBay with dual e5 2620, 64gb RAM, and 12 hdds of various types adding to 100tb all on LVM in ubuntu. I'm planning on transitioning to UnRAID once I get the motivation because my storage hygiene is bad. I've broken LVM too often with misplaced commands.

I'm looking at making an offsite backup shortly mostly for nextcloud at a coworkers home. I am trying to get rid of my reliance on Google for backup.

Have a PC in the basement acting as a server.

• Microk8s on Ubuntu Server
• Custom-written experimental NodeJS app to help when playing D&D
• Keycloak to act as an IDP
• Cloudflare tunnel to receive traffic
• Valheim server (temporarily -- I moved this back to local)
• Wiki.js

I host a bitcoin node, and some video

I host:

• docker-mailserver
• code-server
• Vaultwarden
• Flame Dashboard
• FreePad
• Gotify
• Nextcloud
• Baikal
• Mosquitto
• HomeAssistant
• Node-RED
• InfluxDB
• Grafana
• piHole, Cloudflare DNS over HTTPS client
• Uptime Kuma
• Nginx Proxy Manager
• wg-easy
• Shiori
• MeTube
• Sonarr, Radarr, Jackett, Unpackerr,...
• qBittorrent, Gluetun
• Jellyfin
• Watchtower
• Honeygain, Pawns App, Peer2Profit, Traffmonetizer
• 4 Websites via Nginx
• a few services that I wrote myself

I think that should be it. I left out some less important ones and probably forgot a few that I don't use that often. All these Services are spread across 2 servers at home and a small VPS mainly used for the mailserver and Uptime Kuma.

Currently I play around with a Raspi 4 8GB with docker-compose. Most services are accessible with VPN only:
Caddy (as easy reverse proxy)
Portainer (container dashboard)
Linkding (bookmarks)
Baikal (calendar, todo list to sync with Android by caldav)
Agendav (web calendar frontend)
Dillinger (browser markdown editor with PDF export)
Trilium (note app)
Syncthing (google drive/onedrive alternative)
Seafile (file sharing)
Jellyfin (media server)

Turns out I have quite a lot of stuff, and yet I'm here thinking I barely have anything! Until now:

• Nextcloud
• Kitchenowl (grocery lists)
• Kavita (ebook manager)
• Grist (spreadsheets that are databases I guess?)
• Sharry (file sharing)
• Changedetection.io
• A ghost blog
• Bookstack (like a manual on managing the server)
• Portainer (manage containers from a webui)
• Diun (notifies when an update is released for a container. Doesn't have a webui)
• Homepage dashboard (basically a webpage that shows me my selfhosted services)

All these are running inside Docker containers, on an ancient laptop with a single cpu core and 3 gigs of RAM.

Excited to discover more things to host on that ~~little~~ pretty big guy (somehow its still running well)!

Pi-hole, Wireguard + 'a CDN client' on raspberry pi 4 with SSD
Ditched my Synology NAS, running an unRaid machine now:
i5-10400, 32 GiB (to much) Memory, 15.7 TB used of 60 TB

• VMs: homeassistant , macOS, Windows 10
• SWAG, Cloudflare DDNS, Arrrrrr dockers, Plex, ArchiveTeamWarrior, gokapi, qBittorrent, Resilio Sync, wikijs, mariaDB + whatever I find interesting to try out

Jellyfin and Nextcloud with UptimeKuma for monitoring. A pretty simple stack running on a mini tower, but it works great for my primary needs. Portainer for managing docker containers and stacks from a GUI.

Not much at the moment. Pihole, Pydio, Syncthing, Gitea, Mariadb, Filebrowser, and lighttpd to retrieve weather readings from a homemade weather station.

I selfhost on a 2011 Mac Mini running Ubuntu with 16 gb ram:

• Metabase (a data library of charts, dashboards)
• NocoDB (an Airtable replacement that makes it easy for my users to get data into Metabase)

I'm also setting these up on VPS

In addition to the standard complement of jellyfin etc. I run a Docker OS on Google's free tier with Gotify along with Uptime Kuma running on a tiny x86 computer accessed via a Cloudflare tunnel. Discord watches the watcher and notifies me if Gotify goes down!

It's a great combo. All reverse proxying is handled by HAProxy on my pfsense router.

On a VPS:

• mailcow for email for a personal domain

On home network:

• unraid server as a local fileserver for backups and media (repurposed from an i5 2500k with a bunch of drives added)
• unraid server hosts a bunch of containers -- plex -- jellyfin -- *arr apps

Edit: and hoping to play around with hosting a lemmy server in the next few days

Hi, I have an Unraid server (currently offline due to moving :'-/ ) running

VMs:

• 2 full flat Windows and Pop_OS! VMs with GPU passed through
• 2 low resource Windows and Pop_OS! VMs accessible by VNC
• Home assistant OS

Docker containers:

• Calibre + Calibre-web: apart from managing my ebook library, calibre goes through my RSS feed and generates daily epub newspaper/magazines that are send by Syncthing to my eink tablet
• Syncthing: apart from that it also synchronizes my handwritten notes from my eink tablet between my devices
• Nextcloud: intended to replace Google/Microsoft cloud, but, due to previous apartment's internet connection with PIA triple-ish NAT situation, is only used to backup photo/video from my phone (might change later)
• EMBY: media streaming
• Gitea: WIP, not currently used
• dokuwiki: WIP, intended to acumulate manuals to home appliances and stramlined directions on how to use and maintain them
• influxDB and Grafana: values and graphs from Home Assistant

The server was born when I merged my desktop PC, that was off and not utilized most of the time anyway, and my off the shelf NAS with 4 drives in raid5, that was slow, loud and could only run built-in garbage services. I ran Emby on Windows on my desktop, meaning I would have to manully turn it on every time I wanted to watch something.

Now my server runs on Ryzen 5 1600 with 48GB of RAM, GTX 1060 salvaged from a minig rig and total of 7 drives - 4 HDDs, 2 Sata SSD mirrored for cache and containers and 1 NVME SSD for VMs.

Currently self-hosting a pi-hole instance, an nfs/smb server & a LAN-only webserver, as well as 24/7 syncthing (to which I automatically send my phone's photos to)

My specs are:

Intel Atom N270 (1 core, 2 threads) 1Gb DDR2 Ram (God knows the frequency but it's slow.) And a 500gb HDD

You really don't need a lot of oomph to self host! I'm planning on running a qBitTorrent webui next.

Since I haven't seen it commented yet, I host a kiwix backup of stackoverflow and it has already saved me a couple times during outages.

Hello

Let's have a look at the inventory

• RPI 4B

  • OpenHab (Openhabian actually, so some additional services like Zigbee2MQTT or Grafana)

• HP EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500T, 8GiB RAM - this one is currently the mainstay of my lab, running containers with docker-compose

  • Nginx as reverse proxy (+ fail2ban)
  • Paperless-ngx (+ Redis, Tika, Gotenberg)
  • Jellyfin
  • Minecraft server (+ Mapcrafter)
  • ddclient
  • Heimdall

• Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro i7-8700T 32GiB RAM

  • I've gotten this one fairly recently. A real bargain - costed as much as the CPU alone and was in pristine condition. I will be migrating the workload from EliteDesk to this one. I decided to try ProxMox this time though, so I need to learn a bit first. Also perhaps add a second SSD

I self-host in a rented server. I wrote about my adventures here: https://github.com/bruj0/ProxmoxIPv6

I use proxmox on my server. I virtualize opnsense (with adguard and wireguard), jellyfin, unifi, home assistant, and syncthing.

I have a synology ds220j w/ 2x10tb

Hardware: Intel 12100, 32gb ram, i350-t4 network card TP link TL-SG108E switch

I'm going to move opnsense to a dedicated box eventually

• Mail server
• Bitwarden (vaultwarden)
• Git server (apache + basic git server. no git frontend)

All on dedicated cloud servers for simplicity and security.

Im looking at selfhostihng on my own hardware again. Im considering the following

• lemmy instance
• proxmox with gpu
• Some sort of production database

I have Vaultwarden running on an old laptop, so I definitely don't have much going on. Reading through these comments gives me plenty of ideas on what else to run though!

Main Server - 37 Containers, 4 VMs

• Media: Plex, Audiobookshelf, along with everything for a complete *arr stack
• Network: Cloudflared, NginxProxyManager, Tailscale, Gluetun (for *arrs)
• Other: Authelia, OpenVSCode, Filebrowser, SFTPGo, Bitcoin Node to support the network
• VMs: Parrot, Windows 11 for local and remote gaming, Windows 3.11 (because why not), currently spun up myNode to see if I want to explore hosting a Bitcoin Ligtning Node

Smarthome Server - OptiPlex 3050

• Containers: mqtt, NodeRed, zigbee2mqtt, homebridge, tailscale, pihole (paired with my phone usually)
• VM: HomeAssistant

Testing Server - OptiPlex 7060
Lately been testing and making stuff using linuxserver/docker-baseimage-kasmvnc.

• Arduino-IDE running in a container - with USB hotswap.
• Featherwallet and Electrumwallet (I use a HW-Wallet for HODL).
• Lutris, got it working with Hearthstone, but didn't really have a use for it.
• Nomachine in kasmvnc, to (somewhat) smoothly access my VMs through the webbrowser when I just need something fast.
  Linuxserver Firefox.

XMR Mining Server - Old tired HP SFF
Basicly everything from this guide by seth for privacy; monerod, p2pool, tor, watchtower, and a python-webserver to expose metrics/api.

Hardware:

• CPU: 2x Intel Xeon E5-2695v4
• RAM: 256GB ECC
• Storage: 4x256GB Enterprise SSD, 4x2TB SSD (ZFS Striped Mirror)

Software:

• pfSense
• Proxmox
• k3s with Flux and Longhorn
• Gitea
• Woodpecker
• UniFi
• FreshRSS
• Grafana / Loki
• Ntfy
• Paperless-ngx
• Vaultwarden
• Minio
• Syncthing

I purchased the server used. The services are mostly running in a virtualized cluster, which is absolutely oversized for the current tasks. However, it has motivated me to learn Kubernetes and the power consumption is within my limits.

I have a (beefy specd) Intel NUC that's running Proxmox. A few of the VMs mount to my RS1221+ for things like media (Jellyfin), etc.

On Proxmox I run

• Jellyfin (media server)
• Home Assistant (home automation)
• PiHole (DNS)
• Ansible (For keeping everything up to date and applying bulk actions)
• NGINX Proxy Manager (so I can access things locally with a nice URL)
• VM to host my Discord bots
• Whoogle (Search engine)
• AMP game server

Probably missing a few, but that's the jist

First post in the world of Lemmy! Woot! Another Reddit escapee. I can't for the life of me understand the management team at Reddit. I get that they need to make money and that they're pissed off at the AI guys for pilfering their data but the people who contribute to the subreddits and moderate them for free are why Reddit is such a success. Why would you screw them over? It's so short sited. If you're pissed at OpenAI then talk to them and figure out how they can pay for your API access but don't screw the people that made you a success. They can afford to spend a little of the VC/Microsoft money. Okay...off the soap box now.....

Up until very recently I was running all my services on a HP DL380 Gen9 server. Beautiful server but sucks back electricity like a drunk on New Years Eve and is way too noisy for my office. Purchased 4 different Tiny PCs (3 Lenovos and 1 Dell).

One Lenovo (AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 2200GE with 32GB RAM) is running RockyLinux with Docker with 20+ containers currently running.

• "Sweden Services" - SABnzbd, Sonarr, Radarr and Lidarr
• Tools - IT-Tools, Pairdrop, CyberChef and Paperless NGX
• Homelab services - Portainer, Dozzle and Nginx Proxy Manager
• Info - FreshRSS
• Media - Plex, Audiobookshelf and Navidrome

I'm constantly playing with different containers - adding, removing, etc. I did try making the switch to Podman as I like the idea of rootless containers but could not for the life of me get things like NFS shares and Portainer integration working and was spending way too much time fighting with it. Will probably try again in the near future.

Then the other 3 Tiny PCs are running XCP-NG with various VMs including my Xen Orchestra, Kali, a couple Windows machines (usually off), Tailscale gateway box and a few others. Again, mostly for testing things out.

Using OpnSense as my firewall. Have a TrueNAS system sharing files and another small Rockstor NAS also.

Looking forward to the community here. Thanks.

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

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.

Hi, I have a few bits and pieces.

Currently I have:

Pi Zero running pi-hole

A Mac mini running overseer on Linux

Another Mac mini that I use for dev work that’s also running sonarr, radarr, bazarr, plex and Hoobs under MacOS

A Dell R170 running a number of VMs (windows and Linux) that host a couple of websites , and a load balancer on proxmox.

Things are a bit spread out where I sometimes just had to use the hardware I had to hand but it all works together somehow.

Edit: I've also just spun up a MediaWiki for me and my colleagues to use to store useful snippets of code etc. in a central place. Although I know my colleagues, they'll use it once and then it'll be abandoned :D

A Plex server, two DayZ servers and as of today a Lemmy instance. 😀
