Hello everyone! Mods here 😊
Tell us, what services do you selfhost? Extra points for selfhosted hardware infrastructure.
Feel free to take it as a chance to present yourself to the community!

Proxmox on a self-built rackserver (Will be building a second one for a proxmox cluster):
- Pi-Hole (primary)
- Home Assistant
- 2 Docker Hosts (One for Eval, one for Prod)

Host all the things!
Wordpress, SMTP/IMAP, tor, bittorrent, Nextcloud, Plex, NTP, photo galleries, DoT…
I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.
Wait, what? How are hosting someone else’s website?
OK, here’s how it happened.
I was hungry, and I wanted to see the menu for my local pizza joint. I couldn’t find it anywhere.
I discovered that all their socials linked to a website that wouldn’t load. When I checked, the domain had lapsed.
Out of frustration, I purchased the domain and pulled the last snapshot of their website off archive.org. It had their full menu as a PDF.
6 months later and it’s still getting visitors from their facebook page, who are viewing the menu. They haven’t even realised.
I strive to be this level of…
Whatever this is
Hahah yeah whatever that is
That’s funny. Imagine how confused they’ll be when/if they find out.
What a hero!
Running Tipi on a five year old chrome box with tailscale as the VPN. Has been running great! Now I’m self hosting
- Adguard: adblocking inside tailnet & for DNS rewrites
- Barrage: Nice deluge UI
- Beszel: Clean & simple server monitoring. I monitor two of my instances & the self hosted setup on this.
- Beszel Agent: Agent for collecting data for Baszel
- Deluge: Torrenting
- Duplicati: Backups with a great UI
- File Browser: for quick ops
- Flowise AI: Great drag and drop LLM chat apps builder
- Immich: The absolute best way to manage pictures
- Jackett: For the arr stack
- Jellyfin: Media streaming solution with apps on my phone, TV & laptops
- Open WebUI: My default LLM chat client now, I no longer pay 20$ for chatGPT but just pay as I go with open webui and chatgpt api key
- Radarr
- Sonarr
- Uptime Kuma: Uptime monitoring for everything
- Wallos: Subscription management
Tipi is pretty awesome. If you haven’t already, check it out!
i don’t self-host yet, but i have an old pc in my house, i just need to bring it with me to colege, so i can learn and start self-hosting
I’m hosting Trillium Note for my personal note taking.
Hello
Let’s have a look at the inventory
-
RPI 4B
- OpenHab (Openhabian actually, so some additional services like Zigbee2MQTT or Grafana)
-
HP EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500T, 8GiB RAM - this one is currently the mainstay of my lab, running containers with docker-compose
- Nginx as reverse proxy (+ fail2ban, letsencrypt)
- Paperless-ngx (+ Redis, Tika, Gotenberg)
- Jellyfin
- Minecraft server (+ Mapcrafter)
- ddclient
- Heimdall
-
Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro i7-8700T 32GiB RAM
- I’ve gotten this one fairly recently. A real bargain - costed as much as the CPU alone and was in pristine condition. I will be migrating the workload from EliteDesk to this one. I decided to try ProxMox this time though, so I need to learn a bit first. Also perhaps add a second SSD
How does mapcrafter run for you now? I’m hosting a vanilla server and that’s exactly what I need to see our map. I’m just concerned that it doesn’t function properly now due to recent updates.
Thanks!

Been self hosting for over a decade at this point. Mix of custom built servers and surplus hardware over the years.
To name a few of my daily servers.
- home assistant
- paperless-ng
- jellyfin
- nextcloud
- blue iris
- audiobook shelf
With docker being so easy I have kind of lost track how much stuff i am hosting. A problem i never thought i would have :)
If there is RAM to spare… one more selfhosted service can’t be bad hahaha
- jellyfin and Plex (in the process of migrating)
- radarr/sonarr
- jackett and deluge
- nextcloud
I’ve had new hardware in the basement now for a while, going to slap it together and build a k8s cluster on top of rancher/harvester
Please make a blog post about your migration. I’m in the same boat.
I’ve got a couple VPSes, hosting
- Mailcow, because email is identity.
- Asterisk, because phone #s are also identity.
- Matrix-Synapse, for personal messaging even though XMPP is probably better.
- ttrss, even though it’s junk software with a jerk developer.
- A bunch of self-developed web apps
Self hosting email is obnoxious, but it’s also one of the only remnants of the traditional distributed internet that’s still broadly accepted.
Hi, could you detail how you utilise Asterisk?
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
How do you find actual? I couldn’t really get to grips with it. Although it certainly seemed sleeker than Firefly III.
It’s pretty good and it’s the only open source solution that managed to import transactions from bank statements with few mistakes. but my problem is always to solve conflicts. And I’m always coming back to simple spreadsheets as i can plan some things, do projections with more control.
Hello selfhosters.
Here’s my list of stuff:
On a VPS hosted in Germany:
- Nextcloud
- Mailcow for my own domain
- A blog (https://www.ninjazumbi.com)
- Wallabag
- FreshRSS
- WireGuard VPN
On my home server (my old gaming PC, repurposed)
- Proxmox to manage several containers/VMs:
- OPNsense Firewall
- HomeAssistant
- Pihole
- Gitlab
- Jellyfin
Hi, thanks for your comment! I just visited your blog and noticed that it loads fairly quickly: I assume you must have some sort of CDN set up. Could you point me to how you went about setting up the CDN for your domain/website? Thanks!
No CDN. The secret is way simpler: It’s a static site. Just a bunch of files served directly by Nginx. I use Pelican to generate the site from Markdown files.
