Since no one else has mentioned it, I’ll give a shout out to documentation engine Outline, which allows for self-hosting. Definitely on the trickier side to set up (requires three auxiliary services to be configured) but creates great looking docs that share easily, allows for collaboration and is super fast.

TandoorRecipes is a great little recipe-hosting service, and it's available as an app on Unraid. No more saving recipes in my notes app, I actually have nicely-formatted ingredient lists and instructions.

Also interested, after all the *arr apps I would say:
- EDIT: I forgot about PiHole !
- IRC bouncer - ZNC for example
- Minecraft (fabric with phosphor and sodium plugins for performance)
- Picoshare or Sharry (eikek/sharry on gh)
- Libreddit
Also a neat web tool for messing with data there is cyberchef.
Thanks to this post I realized there is really only one or two services I really use or need haha (ZNC and the other one is a web tool for a popular ttrpg ->pm).
All of this and more is inside docker containers so if you don't know that I would highly recommend it.
Joplin.
You don't strictly have to self host it but it's gotten pretty good with a WYSIWYG editor now and everything.

If you are into RPGs Foundry VTT is a great replacement for roll 20 or any of the other virtual tabletops.
Whats a good way for me to take the dive into self hosting without getting myself in trouble security wise? I would love something that is basic to build off of as I experiment with it to teach myself the more advanced stuff.
