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.

A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It's probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.

Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.

Got 2 24/7 runners in my home:

  1. Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server on a tiny Dell Optiplex 7000 server (Intel 12700T), strapped under my desk, hosting everything in docker:
  • Plex
  • *arrs, on top of a Gluetun container for privacy
  • QBittorrent, to download big files, like ... eh ... linux distributions
  • NginX Proxy Manager
  • PhotoPrism (I subscribe, it's awesome, cannot recommend it enough)
  • Portainer, as a management interface
  • Wireguard VPN server, to enable me to get into my LAN and prevent having to expose anything to the public internet.
  • Watchtower, for keeping things up to date.
  1. A Synology 718+ with 10 TB in a a dual SHR RAID.
  • PhotoPrism storage
  • Plex media storage

In addition, I'm hosting a couple of Wireguard VPS in the US and a Nordic country to give me access to regional content (I pay for a few regional services through friends living there - i.e. they pay monthly and I pay them yearly for an account on a region-locked service) - not sure if that counts as "self-hosting" :)
