• Forgejo for private git repos, coz F GitHub (F as in paying respect obviously… :v)
• Portainer, though don’t use much as of late as I got used to the CLI
• qBittorrent for Linux ISOs. No, really, I use it to download Linux ISOs :v
• WireGuard, several instances, some for accessing specific services, one for accessing GeoIP blocked content when traveling
• Vaultwarden for managing passwords
• Home Assistant for managing a couple of sensors
• Nginx Proxy Manager for managing hosts
• TeamSpeak 6, just playing around with the beta for now
• Apache Subversion for private SVN repos
• A handmade C# service for storing some MQTT data into a database
• peaNUT a NUT dashboard for the UPS
• RustDesk for remote management of desktops

As for the hardware:

• A Raspberry pi 4 running Docker containers
• A Dell Wyse 5070 (16GB) running Proxmox with mainly Alpine Linux VMs

My stack keeps growing, of course. Isn’t that the way of the selfhoster? But so far, I’ve got it down to only ones I use every day. (Lesser-known ones are linked.)

• Audiobookshelf
• Firefly III (+ Pico)
• Jellyfin
• Komga
• Grimmory
• Mealie
• Navidrome
• Journiv
• Paperless
• Radicale
• Scrob
• SearXNG

• Tiny Tiny RSS: 13 year old php version (webhosting) 😆
• Home Assistant (NUC DN2820FYK) Not much, but it’s a start 😜

Hi guys I’m self-hosting for a year or so, I’m currently using for hardware:

• CPU amd ryzen 5 pro

• RAM: 32 GB

• SO: Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS

• NVMe 1tb for system

• HDD 2tb, and 8tb for storage

• Case fractal node 804

software:

• Dockhand

• Adguard

• Gluetun

• Seer

• Radarr

• Sonarr

• Bazarr

• Lidar

• Soulsync

• Prowlarr

• Jellyfin

• Qbittorrent

• Grimmory

• Shelfmark

• Suwayomi

• Flaresolver

• Navidrome

• Slskd

• Jellystats

• File browser

• Immich

• Lubelogger

• Paperless-ng

• Homepage

Experimenting with

• Sublarr

• Ollama and webUI

• LibreTranslate

I’m trying to find something to create Portuguese subtitles for my kids animes, there are a lot of pt_br and I use those when avaliable but there is a lot animes that I can’t find any and I really prefer that they watch in pt_pt ( yes, I’m nagging them to get better in English but read while watching is tricky for them yet)

My stack (Docker on Pi 5/Debian) is much bigger than this, but my top three favourites (not in any particular order) are:

• Adguard Home (browsing on my phone is finally bearable).
• Wireguard (using wg-easy) to not deal with port forwarding.
• Ignis, which I heavily prefer over WebObsidian. Aside from CouchDB giving me hell, it doesn’t use VNC to stream to your browser–it’s built on Electron and all the hard work is done in-browser (am happy to glaze this project further).

I have an Asus NUC 12th gen with 32gb of ram and 1 TB of storage atm. I plan on expanding it with a DAS then run with that for a very long while until I can get a nice rack to play with and do some sys admin stuff down the line.

But ATM I got an arrstack going for Movies, TV, and Music. Alongside that I have Stalwart for mail, Immich for photo backup/gallery, Vaultwarden for password and auth manager, and opencloud for cloud storage.

Hey, I’m new here - but not new to self-hosting :-)

Self-hosting started for me via hosting a few services on my NAS - and then it escalated a bit…

At home:

• 2 Proxmox hosts (Miniforum MS-01 & GEEKOM XT12 Pro), services running mostly as Docker stacks in LXC containers, deployed via Komodo
• (several) Synology NAS (DS918+, DS1520+, DX517, RS2423+) for storage and backups
• UniFi network hardware (UDM Pro, USW Aggregation, USW Pro 48 PoE, U6-Lite APs) with a couple of VLANs. 10 GbE where possible.
• Technitium as DNS (recently replaced my old setup with AdGuard Home)
• Authentik for SSO in front of almost everything
• Nginx Proxy Manager as reverse proxy, Uptime Kuma to monitor stuff, Homepage as dashboard
• The actual fun stuff: Immich, Home Assistant, Paperless-NGX, Mealie, Bar Assistant, Stirling-PDF, Forgejo, Dawarich, LubeLogger, Umami, PBS, Grafana, AFFiNE, Actual, lifeGLANCE, Grocy, Rallly, Rackula, SnapOtter, Wallos, Homebox, RomM, Excalidraw my media stack… the list keeps growing, as I’m sure you all know.

Outside:

• a small server at a German hoster for the real public-facing stuff (WordPress blogs etc.). I just recently revived my old blog, started blogging again and - old school - created a personal website :-D

More about me can be found there. Also my new blog posts are and will be mostly about self-hosting topics after a longer blogging hiatus of about 15 years. Yes, I know, blogs aren’t exactly in fashion anymore :-)

Looking forward to discussions & fresh ideas from the community!

I want to setup opencloud. . .nextcloud are getting too bloated

Main one I use right now is a media center running FreeBSD and XFCE, and KDE Connect for remote-like functionality.

I just play files with mpv manually, but might write a front-end for it one day.

Heyyy, I started because I wanted save money and move away from Google to hosting mini cloud for my whole family that we rely on.

1. I have TrueNAS Server with i5-8400, 32GB of RAM, 256gb nvme for OS, 512gb SSD for appdata dataset, 8tbx2 and 4tbx2 mirrored totaling 12TB of usable space with 512gb SSD for cache for main storage dataset.

TrueNAS hosts these containers:

• immich_machine_learning
• paperless-ngx
• immich_server
• immich_postgres
• ix-adguard-home-adguardhome
• flaresolverr
• joplin
• plex
• content_pipeline
• pinchflat
• seerr
• jupyterlab
• sonarr
• bazarr
• prowlarr
• radarr
• filebrowser
• calibre-web
• ix-speedtest-tracker-speedtest
• qbittorrent
• bookshelf
• paperless-db
• scrutiny
• gitea
• gluetun
• audiobookshelf
• baikal
• beszel
• posting_worker
• vikunja-db
• vikunja
• ix-cloudflared-cloudflare
• grocy
• ntfy
• watchtower
• vaultwarden
• beszel-agent
• immich_redis
• paperless-redis
• wireguard-tunnel
• kavita

2. I also have AI Server with i5-9400, 40gb of RAM, 128gb nvme for OS, GTX 1070 8GB for local Qwen3.5 9b model and openrouter API for deepseek model.

Containers that it runs are:

• Open WebUI
• GPT-Researcher
• Hermes
• open-terminal
• Mem0
• Ollama
• DDGS
• Caddy
• Tailscale

3. Then I have a VPS for proxy, crowdsec, fail2ban to expose my services.

4. And also I pay for iDrive e2 bucket to backup everything.

Well this my small production server infrastructure that i am very proud of. And I’m so glad I have UPS for both of the server. Thank you)))

Hosting a whole bunch of stuff for myself, the family and also the public. For the larger family I’m hosting eMail but using a managed service offering for that (Hetzner). Too old to run my own IMAP/SMTP infrastructure ;)

For a few private societies I’m hosting:

• Mattermost
• NextCloud
• WordPress https://www.uckermark-blog.de/

For the public I host:

• Mastodon at https://hub.uckermark.social/
• Mastodon at https://tetrax.de/
• BookWyrm at https://books.mxhdr.net/
• Mobilizon at https://termine.uckermark.social/
• MatrixChat at https://matrix.mxhdr.net/
• Element WebUI for Matrix at https://element-web.explain-it.org/

Mostly formyself, but not restricted I’m hosting:

• Pixelfed
• LinkDing for Bookmarks
• Excalidraw
• Grafana
• OverLeaf
• StandardNotes Server
• PiHole
• GitTea
• FreshRSS
• Minio S3-kompatible Object Storage as Backend for Mastodon & Pixelfed (on an old Dell Optiplex at home over my DSL Line)
• GoToSocial Fediverse Client (On a RaspberryPi at home)
• PeerTube for public projects (on the same old Dell OptiPlex)
• PeerTube as private Video Streaming platform (on a Dell Precision 3500 tower)

Most services run in Docker Containers on some VPS at Hetzner. Some stuff runs in Docker Containers on old spare hardware at home.

I started in August. Running docker containers on ubuntu server lts minimal, on a ryzen 3 3200g with 16gb ram.

Running:

• Jellyfin
• RomM
• Kiwix
• Seafile
• Beszel
• Portainer
• WUD
• Pi-hole
• Unbound
• Caddy
• Syncthing
• Tailscale

The domain has no website and no open ports, so Caddy handles routing and automated tls certification via api. External access only via tailscale, per user and per device approval process. Split horizon dns so domain names resolve direct routes to server on lan, and via tailnet from outside.

500GB nvme OS drive rsynched nightly to a second matched nvme in the server. HDD data drives backed up using rsynch to matching sized drives in a DAS unit. Script dumps romm and seafile databases to hdd before rsynch Git pulls to data drive, captured in backup and Syncthing to separate device.

Parallel Pihole and Unbound on a RPi5. RPi5 is primary dns for the lan to spread load, but the config master is the server, RPi is kept in sync with a one way feed from the main server using Syncthing.

Looking into adding openclaw and ollama to play with, maybe use to monitor the server a bit more proactively. Need to plan out permissions and security so nothing dumb happens.
