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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

It's very ok, if you don't yeet 4K streams at it.
I ran JellyFin on a Pi 4 for about 3 or 4 yrs before it started acting up. So long as you don't transcode, it works wonderfully well. I had it serving upto 4-5 x 720p streams at same time.
IIRC, mine is overclocked and undervolted using PiTools (and is in a Argon 40 case with a m.2). The Argon 40 case (I think) is causing it to short (something with the daughter-board? Dunno). Better options these days.
Paperless I don't use but I don't see why it shouldn't be possible.
Did you just turn off all transcoding or pre-transcoded to 720p mp4 (or similar)?
Or did you just rely on the native apps for direct play?
Paperless, I guess OCR is very taxing, but I mainly had RAM problems regarding this on my Pi 3, with only one doc at a time, it went slow but steady.
Immich maxed out my i5 (all cores on 100) for some minutes when running the ML on my imported test library of ca. 3k Files. So yeah, when choosing the Pi4, I'd go with ente for sure!
Yeah, transcoding entirely off - directly stream stored 720/1080p files (downloaded like that, although I did use handbrake on the pi once to transcode Space 1999 season 1. Took about 2 days I think).
Someone else was just talking about Wyse thin clients. I'm fairly sure that a $40 Wyse thin client out performs even the best Pi 4 (maybe 5 sometimes). If I can't find a way to fix mine, I may have to buy a few for uh...science. IIRC, they idle at about the same as the Pi
Yeah, I've read about using a Wyse 5070 for this a lot by now. Maybe I'll explicitly search for them instead. All I've seen around me are 4gb models, however. The Stack I'm currently running blocks 3.7gb in idle... So that's not enough
