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.

Minecraft server, a pingvin share site for myself, tubearchivist, pihole, pivpn, 25mb video compressor with a script and incrontab along with the same thing but for GIFs. I think that's most of the list

Nothing too grand - a couple Discord bots and a few retro shooter servers in the cloud, and also a Raspberry Pi 4 in the living room which serves nicely as a media center and seed box.

Hardware:

  • Two Dell r610s, each with 12 cores and 96 GB of RAM, running ESXi 6.7
  • Lenovo M900, 4 core, 16 GB RAM
  • Synology 1515 with 12 TB usable
  • Synology 1517 with 32 TB usable
  • Juniper SRX 220H (Firewall)
  • Juniper EX 2200 48 port switch
  • UnFi in-wall WiFi APs

Running a Kubernetes cluster on the Dell hardware, then another single node k8s cluster on the Lenovo, mostly to run Adguard home / DNS in case the big cluster goes down for whatever reason.

I run the following services, all in Kubernetes, with FluxCD doing GitOps from a repo in GitHub (for now, might move to Gitea later):

  • Authentik
  • Bookstack
  • Calibre
  • Flame (Homepage)
  • Frigate NVR
  • Home Assistant
  • Memos
  • Monica
  • Plex
  • Prowlarr
  • Radarr
  • Rocket Chat
  • Sonarr
  • Tandoor
  • Tautulli
  • Unifi
  • UptimeKuma
  • VS Code
  • Zigbee2MQTT

I have a few raspberry pis, running Home Assistant, Unifi controller, PiHole... Otherwise i have DigitalOcean droplets, one hosts my Lemmy instance, and another hosts a couple of side project websites (my wife's freelance business, and some other stuff)

[–] learningduck@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

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

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. πŸ’“

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

Late to the party and after reading through some of these setups I may have to expand mine soon (it never ends does it?), here is what I have right now.

Unraid (Dell R720XD, dual Xeon E5-2670 v2, 64GB RAM, 12 x 6TB in 12 disk array with 2 parity disks, 800GB SSD cache pool)

There are some other things floating around in my homelab that aren't really 'selfhosted' things, just important to the home network:

3 HP Microserver Gen8's

-x1 with ESXi hosting pfSense

-x2 with TrueNas Scale for backups

R610 with ESXi for a few remote desktops and Home Assistant (which I'm sure I'll move to docker at some point).

Presently, my Fediverse presence is mostly self-hosted by one definition or another. This Lemmy instance lives on my server, and my Masto is hosted by a company dedicated to exactly that because it's dirty cheap and one fewer thing for me to worry about.

Looking to add to the list.

[–] Nerrad@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I might be the only person self hosting a gopher server. Its running on a Raspi 4 on my home network, using Flask Gopher.

[–] irmadlad@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Aww man I remember those well. Is this for nostalgia or do you regularly use it?

I cover most of what services I’m running in my own post looking for assistance recently.

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!

[–] ProfessionalHandJob@lemmy.beyondcombustion.net 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

currently, I selfhost https://beyondcombustion.net and now https://lemmy.beyondcombustion.net for /r/vaporents and hopefully others. There's other stuff I self host too, this is the fun new stuff though.

I host a nextcloud sever (snap) and a minecraft server on a laptop I no longer use

[–] joshthetechie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I used to host a ton of stuff, now I just host my WordPress site on Linode.

I have toyed with the idea of selfhosting a Lemmy server, but that's a project for another day.

[–] Zookeeper@programming.dev 1 points 2 months ago

I just started months ago, but I have a yunohost server ona raspberry with nextcloud and forgejo on it :)

  • 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.

[–] spookedbyroaches@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I got

  • A RAID NAS for general
  • A Firefly-iii instance for expense analysis and stuff
  • And MQTT broker for my ESP32 projects
  • A webdav server for calendar and address book syncing and general file syncing for some things like joplin

There are probably other things that I don't remember right now.

In terms of hardware I got a 6 core AMD 5600X machine with a 5700XT GPU and 16GB of ram for almost all my services and personal use.

I also have an AMD 3600 machine with 3x8TB harddrives for network storage.

I self-host:

  • A Matrix homeserver
  • A Pleroma instance (basically Mastadon but different implementation)
  • Tiny-Tiny-RSS
  • Nextcloud
  • Gitea
  • Headscale
  • Jellyfin
  • Wikijs

I rent a low-budget dedicated server from a data center - it only has about 4 cores and 8GB of RAM, but that's more than enough for my needs. Most importantly it has 2TB of hard drive space (for Nextcloud & Jellyfin) which is why I upgraded from my prior VPS.

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

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).
