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.

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.

My main machine is running Linux Mint on a Ryzen 2700x, 32gb ram, 80TB of raw storage and a vega 64 GPU.
Running:
I run:
36 TB server:
Raspberry pi:
My longest running self-host is the RSS reader Tiny Tiny RSS running on a Digital Ocean droplet with Ubuntu 22.04
Jellyfin for media
Miniflux RSS reader
Home assistant
Pihole
OpenMediaVault for NAS
Kavita for ebooks
Portainer
NginxProxyManager
It's all kind of a mess, but I like it
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.
Unraid OS Plus
i7-3700K, 16GB DDR3 RAM, 32TB
I've been having a fuck of a time getting IIS to work properly as a Reverse Proxy but I'm hosting an Emby Media Server on a Windows 10 desktop and a Foundry VTT Server on a Windows 10 laptop
automatic youtube downloader using PubSubHubbub to get notified of new videos via flask app behind apache reverse proxy. running on a pi3b.
I've got a Raspberry Pi running Portainer on DietPi OS hosting a Discord bot, ACME certificate manager, reverse proxy; a second DietPi pi hosting Sonarr and Radarr and an automatic ripping machine; a pi NAS ruining open media vault; and my Linux gaming system also has Portainer running Jellyfin.
Wayyy too much for my lil old PC server. Its pegged at 40% swap usage, that's after a RAM upgrade.
Alpine Linux running services in podman. Deployments use ansible.
Got a few disks fused together + snapraid redundancy.
All services go through Nginx, plus a couple static sites generated with hugo.
Authentik for single sign on everywhere I can.
Matrix: Synapse + mautrix WhatsApp, Signal bridges for private chats. A public Conduit server for big online chats. Element and Cinny clients, I can't pick a fave.
Nextcloud because I have to.
Jellyfin for movies, shows and music. The Arr suite for managing my media. Transmission openvpn container for getting Linux ISOs and other legal media.
Vaultwarden super light betwarden server - I love this.
Forgejo git server is fantastic.
Monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana.
Umami for web stats.
Pihole for filtered DNS.
A tiny minetest server for the LAN.
That's pretty much it. I love this thing.
...and other legal media...
Lol
I'm self-hosting some stuff on a yunohost server but i plan to switch to start9 once they add support for clearnet.
I would be hosting more but our internet is too slow for anything else to really be effective.
I've got 3 "servers" at home right now.
cluster (two old laptops, and 3 PI 3s):
containers on nomad:
docker (on unraid):
Stand alone hardware:
Raspberry 4 No.1 (HassOS)
Raspberry 4 No.2 (Ubuntu LTS)
Fileserver custom built (Ubuntu LTS, local only):
Raspberry 4 No.3 (Raspian, local only)
Currently just running an SMB share and paperless on my Turing Pi v2, which only has one 8gb Pi at the moment. Hoping to get more Pis and run more things soon.
I have a Jellyfin server, which has been absolutely amazing. It's accesible remotely via my domain, too. So my whole family and some friends can watch stuff / listen to music through it. Super happy with it.
I also have a Minecraft server. We don't use it much, but it's always there, and it's not going away. Which is something I've always wanted since I first put up an MC server a decade ago.
Besides that, my website and a bunch of personal scripts are all hosted from home :)
Here's mine:
Unraid OS: Docker:
Unraid OS: Virtual Machines:
Unraid OS: Plugins:
My unraid server is my "jack of all trades" machine running the primary services apart from my Pihole instance (as below).
Ubuntu Server LTS:
This is running on an old thin client machine and is my primary Pihole/VPN machine with a backup music/media server running Emby.
I'm self-hosting a bunch of stuff all over the place. I've a pi-hole, NAS and a bunch of Discord bots on an e-waste rescue nettop. Then I have a linux server running Ubuntu Server with more Discord bots, Nextcloud, syncplay, some basic websites, including an Element-im stickerpicker. I used to run a Matrix homeserver too, but I got fed up with maintaining that. It has been quite the learning experience and it has been absolutely worth it.
Right now only mail server and Bitwarden server. I’m thinking of running lemmy instance
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:
Just Jellyfin on my Win10 PC. Been thinking of getting a NAS but it's quite daunting for me to start that process. Been looking for a Synology to at least start somewhere
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)
This is all in docker containers behind a reverse proxy using Traefik. Im happy with the setup as it's really versatile and so far hasn't failed me. Biggest upgrade I've done is replacing the SD card of the RPi with an SSD
miniflux, nitter, seafile on my local RPi4
pondered pixelfed (but they don't have docker image) and calckey (no arm one)...
Im hosting the following services on a small cloud VM running k3s:
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.
Debian 9 running a webserver with Nextcloud, mostly. Also currently trying to get Matrix to work on a temporary Debian 11 device but we'll see how that goes.
