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).

In my homelab I have two main servers
Esxi: Opnsense VM --Running Wireguard VPN Docker VM --Vaultwarden --Portainer --FreshRSS --Heimdall Dashboard --SponsorBlockCast --Portainer Agent Home Assistant VM --Node Red --Frigate --DoubleTake --zigbee2mqtt --Mosquitto --ESPHome SecureVM --NGINX Proxy Manager --Portainer Agent
Ubuntu Media Server 40tb zfs Running Docker: --Scrutiny --Plex --YTDL Material --Lidarr --Radarr --Bazarr --Sonarr --Sabnzbd --Compfreface --Portainer Agent Cockpit
I host a custom PaaS I developed during the pandemic, based of Docker Swarm.
On it I have:
Navidrome, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, and Nextcloud are the services I use the most, and all the related stuff, MySQL, NPM, Redis, Collabora, etc.
Jellyfin is running on my Unraid server (28tb usable), the rest are running on an Ubuntu Server system (1tb, raid 1 SSDs).
automatic youtube downloader using PubSubHubbub to get notified of new videos via flask app behind apache reverse proxy. running on a pi3b.
My current homelab build is a 5950X w/128GB and... well it's more complicated than that.
Currently running in Proxmox (in no particular order!):
I host these:
cluster (two old laptops, and 3 PI 3s):
containers on nomad:
docker (on unraid):
Stand alone hardware:
Paperless NGX on a Raspberry 4. No more paper documents at home... Everything that still comes by mail is instantly scanned and shredded. Emails are also scanned and attachments are added automatically, if important.
I am running Mealie (recipe management site) and pi hole (network ad blocker) on an old MacBook Pro (2012?) loaded with Ubuntu server. Also have Plex media server running on my main computer (Pop OS)
It's still in the works, but I'm planning on:
It's definitely a lot of stuff, but I'm trying to reduce my reliance on cloud services. Really excited to get this stuff going.
Feels like literally everything...
LXC:
NginxProxyManager
Kasm
Several instances of GameServer
openemr (testing for viability for a client)
3 instances of TechnitiumDNS
Nextcloud
Graylog
UptimeKuma
ChangeDetection
Zwave-js
MeshCentral
Homepage
Canvas (yes a full instance of canvas. I used to be a college instructor, I have a copy of all my courses)
InvoiceNinja
Matrix
Lemmy
UnifiController
Gameyfin (I don't like this that much... it'll likely get killed)
6 instances of generic docker on LXC running portainer for other services:
diagrams.net (specifically tied into my nextcloud instance)
ghostfolio
it-tools
librespeed
libretranslate
quakejs
rickroll
rxresume
searxng
Ascii starwars
wxrdle
gramps.js
teamspeak
authentik (I think I like keycloak more and might migrate back)
bisq
hrconvert2
And a watchtower instance on each.
VMs:
Proxmox Backup Server
Mailcow
Librenms
freepbx
HomeAssistant
Windows Domain Server (no GUI)
"Media Server" which is a plex stack with all the *arr fixings.
And a vpn bound qbitorrent instance.
Edit:
I missed an old VM that I'm in the process of deprecating out to lxc...
Docker01:
Archivebox
Ghost
Bookstack
LibreCaptcha
Wordpress (for a client)
parsedmarc
gitea
grocy
YOURLS
minecraft
opennox
vaultwarden
racktables
tubearchivist
At home on multiple Pis: OpenMediaVault HomeAssistant Raspbee (Zigbee module) Unifi controller
Server 1 (Ubuntu): Wireguard
Server 2 (Ubuntu): Nextcloud Trillium Gitea Vaultwarden Calibre Web Vikunja Photoprism Paperless
All services only run on the Wireguard interface.
And I am looking into some billing tools for my side-gig.
Oh boy here I go:
Hardware: Ryzen 7900X, 128GB Ram, 2x12TB HDD, 2x2TB SSD
What I'm running:
I've got a Nextcloud instance that I've run for a few years. Love it. At home I have an Odroid H3+ with 64GB of ram running Openmediavault. Got about a dozen containers running on that. I need to play with it more and use that ram. I did try to get Boinc running on it but it, sadly, kept shutting down. I'll have to find a another way to contribute to science.
Pretty much everything to be fair:
EDIT: For those wondering, I use @[email protected] ( https://yunohost.org ) as my server manager
Most recently I'm running my own instances of Mastodon and Lemmy. Those are on my Hetzner dedicated server along with a bunch of other services and websites, but what I use the most is Miniflux, Immich and Photoprism.
Then I turned my old laptop (it's got decent spec) into a home server running Jellyfin.
File storage, mainly. I have 2 NAS devices (one Synology I picked up in 2014, and an Unraid device I just built a couple months ago) - the former holds 13TB and the latter currently holds 35TB with plans to bring it to 100TB as I get money for more drives.
The Unraid system has a Youtube-dl instance running to auto-pull videos from the channels I follow, and I also run my Plex server from it. The Synology only has a Git server on it that I use to keep local copies of repos that I store on GitHub, along with personal projects that I'd rather not publish (even as private repos) in the cloud.
Everything runs in a kubernetes cluster hosted on my homelab, except the public services access point which is a VM hosted on a non-profit ISP and service provider infrastructure, which I contribute to, through a wireguard VPN between the VM and home:
Public-facing:
Work related (I work from home 75% of time), not public-facing:
Home stuff, not public-facing:
all of this running on a 3 control-planes/6 workers talos linux k8s cluster, itself hosted on a franken-proxmox cluster (a mix of server/"old" desktops/Ryzen NUCs) and a bunch of NAS (VM dedicated NAS, data storage NAS, backup NAS).
I have DietPi running on an RPi 4 with 4GB RAM.
Everything here is hosted in docker containers:
I've probably forgotten some things but that's the main bulk of it. Can't recommend DietPi enough if you are looking for a super lightweight OS for you Pi server, has been perfect for me so far. Here are some things I am looking to host in the future too:
Plex, Sonarr/Radarr, Ombi, Home Assistant, Komga, Calibre-Web, Valheim. Everything is on a Debian machine I built recently, except HA which is on an O-Droid (I just copied the hardware from HA Blue and ordered the parts from Ameridroid).
Prefacing by saying my lab is severely breaking ~~some~~ a lot of best practices due to hardware availability limitations
Proxmox box (24GB DDR3, E3-1230)
Raspberry Pi 2B+
OptiPlex 7020 sff (8GB DDR3, i5-4590)
So much stuff.
On the cloud side, I host two things in production:
Pi zero running pihole
unRAID server running
I only turn the unRAID server on when needed however. The summers here in Denmark is beginning to be unbearable, so I don't need any more heat in my apartment.
To answer my own question:
And the basics of course:
All running on an Ubuntu Linux server, but everything is containerised into mostly Alpine Linux podman (rootless) containers (and a few lxc containers which I'm phasing out).
Across my and some family members' homes:
On the internet:
Not much. I have a searxng instance, used to have nextcloud… I should start hosting more stuff really soon
