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.

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).

My personal setup:
- Nextcloud - For files, backup, contacts and calendar
- Vaultwarden - Password Safe
- Paperless - Document management, combined with a compatible scanner a true blessing (with scan to SMB)
I have been playing with some other tools, but these are the most important for me.
(with scan to SMB)
So the scanner saves the file in SMB-share(s), then Paperless(-xng) will automatically process it?
Maybe Paperless, with an LLM API integration to chat with the documents, using the power of referring to and verifying against Paperless' concrete results, would be somehow useful.
Edit: Oh, this is already being discussed on their GitHub. Of course it is!
You are right with the first part. It only takes three clicks to scan a doc and have it available.
As for me, I'm not interest in sending my documents to open AI. But it would definitely offer some nice functions.
I'm not interest in sending my documents to open AI.
You wouldn't have to. There are plenty of well-performing open-source models that work with an API similar to the Open AI standard, with which you can simply substitute OpenAI models by using a different URL and API-key.
You can run these models in the cloud, either selfhosted or "as a service".
Or you can run them locally on high-end consumer-grade hardware, some even on smartphones, and the models are only getting smaller and more performant with very frequent advancements regarding training, tuning and prompting. Some of these open-source models are already claiming to be outperforming GPT-4 in some regards, so this solution seems viable too.
Hell, you can even build and automate your own specialized agents in collaborating "crews" using frameworks, and so much more...
Though, I'm unsure if the LLM functionality should be integrated into Paperless, or rather implemented by calling the Paperless API from the LLM agent. I see how both ways could fit some specific uses.
Some features like a "tl,dr" bot would probably not even need high end hardware, because it does not matter if it takes ten minutes for a summary.
Features like a chat bot do not belong into paperless IMO.
Vaultwarden AdGuardHome + Sync Jellyfin + FinAmp + Supersonic Linkding + Linkding Injector LLDAP Calibre-web + Kobo
For me it's gotta be Portainer, Vaultwarden, and Tailscale. Everything else (FreshRSS, Heimdall, Paperless) is just cream.
- Syncthing
- FreshRSS
- Wireguard
- Transmission + WebUI
- Samba4 (files and WebDav for Joplin and some others)
- FileBrowser
Sandstorm
By Darwin I had not heard of wg-easy before. That is indeed easier than my setup. Thank you.
MythTV for the AV ... Volumio too, but, not upgrading that to v3.
Not seen radicale mentioned here...
I was an early adopter of OwnCloud and then switched to Nextcloud and, well, just gave up with it... no-one edits documents on it, we don't look at photos on it, but we did use a shared calendar... so I ditched that, installed radicale and been much happier (ie less admin time, more life time)
Also running syncthing from our phones to a home built NAS and a tablet in the kitchen as the NextCloud photo upload was (still is?) broken.
I run Arch btw
Home Assistant of course... MotionEye in a Pi Zero...
And it's all behind a pfSense box with DNS and GeoIP blockers installed.
Oh, and EmonCMS for my SolarPV.
+1 mythtv. It distributes OTA TV to kodi all over the house.
I run Radicale, got all my calendars, contacts, tasks/reminders and even notes on it. It's a great CalDAV & CardDAV server. Lightweight too, and backup is super simple since each thing is a plain text file. Been using it with DAVx5 on the phone and it works perfectly.
What do you use on your phone for Tasks?
OpenTasks is great, but hasn't had an update in 3 years, but jtx Board is unclear and massive overkill for me
I use Calengoo, it's a calendar app that supports both events and tasks in the same app.
But it depends on how you mean tasks, for me they're strictly reminders for "do thing at time". I don't use them for shopping lists or notes or things like that.
