I live small in the cloud for now:

• dns
• email
• homeassistant

Used to selfhost a gitlab instance, nextcloud and some other things, but I'm between houses so it has to wait.

Lots of good inspiration here!

Always looking for more, but so far it's pretty minimal.

• Pi.hole with Gravity Sync
• openhabian for smarthome hub

Looking to add Jellyfin and a sonarr radarr setup, but my QNAP doesn't like doing actual work so I've been struggling. Planning to add a mini PC soon as a more stable server and to centralize things a bit.

• Two NextCloud instances, one is a RPi4 with a big external HDD which I use for backups, the other one contains everything else, including PhoneTrack. Happy to have a self-hosted privacy-friendly way to share my location with family.

I run a bunch of bots, some databases plus

• Jellyfin
• Unifi controller
• Radar
• Sonarr
• Lidarr
• Bazarr
• nzbhydra2
• Sabnzbd
• Heimdall
• Twitch points miner 2

I had a small X.25 network as combination coffee-table and space-heater at one point; this was before most homes had internet. It almost cost me a divorce.

I have been self hosting things for over 15 years. I now host on 7 computers. I'm proud of the fact that I stay under 100W idle, including 3 Omada WLAN APs and network technology (all via PoE and all is on a UPS). For most of the services i normally used the helper scripts. i'm currently in the process of moving everything to komodo. there should be an lxc for each service or service group, komodo pulls the compose files from gitea and deploys everything.

*raspberry pi 5

• venus OS (solar/accu management software)

i'm happy to have found an entry point and an alternative to reddit here, even though my second post (question about suitable hardware with 32 answers) has already been deleted. hello everyone!

On my own hardware: At home I have a Raspberry Pi 4 running JellyFin as a local media server, also experimenting with PiHole. One of these days I'd like to pull my NextCloud server in-house.

VPS: Nextcloud (including calendar, notes, contacts & RSS/Atom), GoToSocial, WordPress, Gemini, and personal website with a mix of home-grown parts and sections managed through Eleventy.

I've also experimented with self-hosting Calckey , Snac2 and Mastodon, but Mastodon's too heavy for a single user and Snac2 is lighter than I want to go with for now. I may try Calckey again at some point, though.

Eventually I'd like to set up Wallabag and migrate from Pocket.

Available from internet:

• jellyfin
• jellyseerr
• immich
• paperless-ngx
• owncloud ocis
• traefik
• homarr

Available only from local:

• the *arr stack
• qbittorrent
• jackett
• watchtower
• apprise
• netdata (kinda new, still have to fully understand how it works)
• portainer
• speedtest-tracker
• homepage

Security

All the services available from internet, just goes through traefik to terminate https, I rely on the build in authentication of each service. To add another layer of security, I have fail2ban active on all those services.

I have a public IP, and I have open on my router ports 80, 443, a random port for ssh and vpn.

Hardware:

Memory:
  System RAM: total: 8 GiB available: 7.73 GiB used: 4.46 GiB (57.7%)

docker compose files

All the docker compose files + how I configured everything is available at: https://github.com/simone-viozzi/my-server

Bonus:

Since I like the ability of btrfs to do snapshots, I created all important docker volumes as btrfs subvolumes. Then I created a backup script that literally sends the subvolume (encrypted) to an external cloud. This does not allow incremental backups and most likely is not the best backup solution... but it works... the repo is: https://github.com/simone-viozzi/btrfs2cloud-backup

I welcome any advice / criticism!

Using LXD:

• ddclient
• Jellyfin (2)
• Minecraft (proxy + 4 servers)
• Satisfactory server
• V Rising
• Gitea vcs
• wordpress
• rtorrent
• other web servers

Using rootless Podman + Systemd service:

• Vaultwarden
• Linkding
• Traefik
• Immich photo backup
• Nextcloud (though I hate it, probably will stop)
• Grafana
• Prometheus
• Prowlarr/Radarr/Sonarr/Lidarr/Bazarr/Recyclarr
• Rtorrent + Flood
• Jellyseerr
• Navidrome (Subsonic server)
• Miniflux (RSS)
• Woodpecker (CI integration for Gitea)
• Tubearchivist (yt-dl)
• wg-easy (wireguard)
• searxng

All services are split across 2 DIY servers (in towers). 15TB of media stored on HDD with btrfs duplicated across both servers. One server host is Alpine Linux, the other is Opensuse MicroOS. LXD containers usually are Debian 12 or Alpine. I'm beginning to migrate some things to a cluster of (12) raspberry pi 3s. Unsure what to choose for rpi's, maybe, Fedora CoreOS (ublue), although Alpine does work extremely well on them (once you get them set up with it).

Personally, I host Sandstorm, and Discord music bot, and Minecraft.

Lemmy, mostly :D. I also recently started up my own Matrix home server. I took a stab at email, but it was more trouble than it's worth considering my relatively newly acquired cloud hosting IP is on several blacklists. Now that I actually have a server running again Gitea might be next on the list of services that gets added.

I'm just getting my server up and running! Previously it only ran Honeassistant.

Now it runs proxmox, which boots 2 vms, one for HAOS and another for Debian. On the Debian vm there is currently Plex, nextcloud, and some -arr apps.

8 also have a separate raspberry pi pihole. I've had that going for years now, I think I first made it 2019.

Hi there. My first post in this community.

I'm currently running:

• Pi-hole
• Plex Media Server
• Grafana
• Torrent server
• Monica
• Shaarli
• Matrix instance
• Arch package cache
• Several game servers such as Minecraft and Terraria
• VM running Volvo software to troubleshoot my cars.

My hardware: I used to run it all on a Supermicro x9drd-7ln4f-jbod with dual Xeon E5-2670 v2 with 16x16GB ECC ram and 6x 3TB disks in raidz2 for storage and 2x 60gb Intel SSDs for OS. I started with less and upgraded towards this configuration but it was consuming 300 watt idle which was just unacceptable.

So earlier this year I upgraded to an ASRock Rack x470D4U with Ryzen 7 5700x and 4x32GB ECC (non-registered) ram and 6x 2TB SSDs in raidz2. 1 ssd is in the nvme slot on the motherboard, 4 are in a 4x4 bifurcation card in the 16x slot and 1 more in a 4x riser. All PCIe lanes of the CPU are used. This setup is not possible with an AMD CPU with integrated GPU since it will take up 4 PCIe lanes (you can guess how I know). It uses about 20 watt idle without any containers and VMs running. I initially didn't want to move away from Supermicro but the ASRock Rack motherboard has IPMI so I'm not missing out on much.

Hardware and software suggestions are welcome :D

Plex and a web app I wrote for a Twitch community I moderate.

Plex is on a server in the Netherlands and the web app is just AWS. I would've hosted on some spare hardware but my internet is notoriously trash and I didn't want to risk it going down while people are playing in the app.

Plex I might move onto a NAS at some point but I'm just too lazy lol.

Just testing from selfhosted instance!

Since I'm moving very soon I'm also redoing everything, so this more of a "soon-to-be" than a current, but I will have:

3x ryzen 5600 w/ 32gb of ECC ram, 10gb network and some enterprise disks 1x mikrotik switch 1x mikrotik router

And I will host, using Kubernetes (Talos OS):

• ceph
• owncloud infinite scale
• Immich
• Jellyfin
• Homeassistant
• Hashicorp vault
• Oneuptime
• gitea
• plane
• actual (finance software)
• probably forgetting some stuff

I host one of the worlds last gopher sites. And some Telegram bots, on Raspberry Pi's.

Hi everyone! I’m a big fan of self hosting :)

I have a dedicated server in Hetzner

• Intel Core i7-8700
• 2x SSD M.2 NVMe 1 TB
• 4x RAM 32768 MB DDR4

Been running it for almost a year without any issues. I host several things there. I’m using caprover.com for managing my deployments since I contributed on the project a few years ago and it’s so easy to get started.

Some of the things I host there:

• nextcloud
• MySQL
• Postgres
• privatebin
• some Hasura instances
• Kuma (for monitoring)
• Browserless Chrome (which I use for web scrapping)
• Plausible (analytics)
• A private Ragnarok Online Server

I have setup a cron job that dumps my all of my databases (Postgres and MySQL) to my Google drive every midnight.

Hope this can help as inspiration for anyone else. Cheers!

A cobbled together Ryzen 2400g with 16GB of ram. Open Media Vault/Docker: Plex Nextcloud stack with dns refresh/ssl/nginx Sonarr/transmission stack with VPN PiHole Octoprint

Occasionally I run a game server or two when the need comes up, mostly Valheim lately.

I have a meager ds418play with 2x4tb drives set up with RAID. I forget what it's called, but it is one drive redundancy, 1:1. I run Plex and an FTP server on it for file storage.

Short-term todo:

• Homeassistant

Public dns names have A records pointing to haproxy vps, which proxies to home over tunnel, and AAAA records pointing straight to home (I have static ipv6 prefix, but no static ipv4 address)

My "Home Lab" loosely put, is an amalgamation of this:

Docker and Docker Compose installed on Ubuntu on a Dell PowerEdge 530 and on that docker host I have: -Portainer

-Nginx Proxy Manager

-Cloudflare Dynamic DNS

-Chromium

-Dozzle

-Gluetun

-Homarr

-Jellyfin

-Kanboard

-Komga

-Radarr

-Lidarr

-Sonarr

-Navodrome

-netbooyxyz (work in progress)

-Prowlarr

-qBittorrent

-Pairdrop

-Resilio-Sync

-Searxng

-Siganl CLI container for alerts

-Uptime Kuma

-VSCode

-WikiJS

-Watchtower

On one of my Pi's:

-Pihole

-Pialert

-fail2ban

-PIVPN

-Unbound

The weakest part of my setup arguably is between my storage "solution" and my networking setup.

Storage is just a bunch of large drives in the Dell. Next upgrade is a new router solution, but still use my current router for a wireless access point strictly for IOT and putting my other devices on separate VLANs.

I was thinking about getting a Nextcloud going, but not sure I want to as of right now.
