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.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. 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.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I have a MediaWiki instance on my laptop (I've found the features of all other wikis/mindmaps/knowledge databases decisively insufficient after having a taste of MW templates, Semantic MediaWiki and Scribunto).

Also some smaller things like pihole-standalone, Jellyfin and dictd.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Curious what you use a local version of MediaWiki for?

I've been working on expanding my homelab recently. I have a physical box at home serving as an LXC host along with a few VPSes. I'm now up to:

  • Some static web sites
  • Nextcloud
  • Jellyfin
  • Forgejo
  • NTFY
  • A reverse proxy
  • An IRC server
  • A Gemini server
  • A VPN
  • DNS servers

I think I read an old blog post once that said "Servers tend to multiply like rabbits" and it's 100% true.

Running Tipi on a five year old chrome box with tailscale as the VPN. Has been running great! Now I'm self hosting

  1. Adguard: adblocking inside tailnet & for DNS rewrites
  2. Barrage: Nice deluge UI
  3. Beszel: Clean & simple server monitoring. I monitor two of my instances & the self hosted setup on this.
  4. Beszel Agent: Agent for collecting data for Baszel
  5. Deluge: Torrenting
  6. Duplicati: Backups with a great UI
  7. File Browser: for quick ops
  8. Flowise AI: Great drag and drop LLM chat apps builder
  9. Immich: The absolute best way to manage pictures
  10. Jackett: For the arr stack
  11. Jellyfin: Media streaming solution with apps on my phone, TV & laptops
  12. 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
  13. Radarr
  14. Sonarr
  15. Uptime Kuma: Uptime monitoring for everything
  16. Wallos: Subscription management

Tipi is pretty awesome. If you haven't already, check it out!

Hi

I started self hosting 3 years ago when I got wind of tailscale. I've always cared about privacy and building things so that was great.

My infrastructure consists of two machines.

One - my personal and work server A deskmini i3 12th gen

256GB Boot drive 4TB NVME data drive

-photoprism -syncthing -nextcloud -Firefox+VPN -archivebox

Two - my media server that I let 6ish other people access - PC tower i3 12th gen

512GB Boot and docker config file drive 4*4TB HDD mergerfs for raw data

-jellyfin -*arr suite -gluetun VPN -audiobookshelf (also for auto downloading podcasts) -calibre-web

Unraid, Plex & Pihole. Next project is Opnsense, then starting to look at Home Assistant.

I don't selfhost very much compared to other people and my hardware's pretty much either all literally found in the garbage or 2nd hand, but here it is

PiHole

WireGuard server that passes trough pihole adblocking

Homarr (lol)

Deluge

The system is mostly a NAS that I also run the occasinal general purpose VM off of, here are the specs for the 3 ppl that care:

CPU: AMD FX-8320E

RAM: 16GB

Storage: 5x2TB Seagate something something 7200RPM in RAIDz1, 128 GB random chinese SSD (mostly for VMs and apps) the, OS runs off of a flash drive

OS: TrueNAS scale

Do you have some massive server home or using VPS/VDS?

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
[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How do you find actual? I couldn't really get to grips with it. Although it certainly seemed sleeker than Firefly III.

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

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow, is Gopher still a thing?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sure is. There is now Flask Gopher for building gopher sites in Python.

I host:

  • docker-mailserver
  • code-server
  • Vaultwarden
  • Flame Dashboard
  • FreePad
  • Gotify
  • Nextcloud
  • Baikal
  • Mosquitto
  • HomeAssistant
  • Node-RED
  • InfluxDB
  • Grafana
  • piHole, Cloudflare DNS over HTTPS client
  • Uptime Kuma
  • Nginx Proxy Manager
  • wg-easy
  • Shiori
  • MeTube
  • Sonarr, Radarr, Jackett, Unpackerr,...
  • qBittorrent, Gluetun
  • Jellyfin
  • Watchtower
  • Honeygain, Pawns App, Peer2Profit, Traffmonetizer
  • 4 Websites via Nginx
  • a few services that I wrote myself

I think that should be it. I left out some less important ones and probably forgot a few that I don't use that often. All these services are spread across 2 servers at home and a small VPS mainly used for the mailserver and Uptime Kuma.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honeygain etc.... First time I hear about them. Do you mind sharing how much you get?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It really depends on the type of IP you have and your location, but it's really not much for me. From Honeygain I get like 20 bucks every 6 months and when paying out the money around 4$ get lost by transaction fees, but better than nothing and those services use so few resources, you don't even notice them running in the background.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

you might want to check honeygain's network calls, because I had it running and then suddenly noticed my IP got banned on quite a few websites.

Turns out it was my honeygain traffic that caused it, I quickly uninstalled it after that.
