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

I've been getting deeper in to how this can go over the summer. I've done plex for a good few years at this point, but i've got this now: -Ubuntu bionic -Dockge (for easy rebooting when i'm just not feeling the CLI) -Arr stack -Gluetun (VPN for stack) -Firefox (LAN access only, no other access from gluetun) -Radarr -Sonarr -qbittorrent -prowlarr -Immich -Plex

A few I've tried but can't get to work on docker-compose yet: -searxNG -Heimdall (just can't get the graphs I wanna see for the systems processes) -homarr (not bad, just same as heimdall)

I wanted to cut over to proxmox from ubuntu just to have more server efficient since i'm not running ubuntu server. However I'm still fairly new to this and the cut over from docker desktop and docker run to docker-compose was a lot for a bit, so it'll still be on the list, but probably when I upgrade this old cpu (i5 6500) to something newer since this is an old thinkcenter. I'm hella open to any suggestions anyone's got

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.

I host a bitcoin node, and some video

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.

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.

[–] flexnsniff@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 2 years ago

I selfhost a lot of the normal stuff everyone else does. Plex, AdguardHome, etc...

I also have a 96+ port dial-up server system: https://2600.network

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.

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

My biggest issue with Dell is the inability to upgrade the power supply 😭

[–] Im1Random@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] athes@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Honeygain etc.... First time I hear about them. Do you mind sharing how much you get?

[–] Im1Random@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

It really depends on the type of IP you have and your location, but it's really not much for me. From Honeygain I get like 20 bucks every 6 months and when paying out the money around 4$ get lost by transaction fees, but better than nothing and those services use so few resources, you don't even notice them running in the background.
