Over the years I accumulated very many services which I host myself and each of them has it’s own URL:

  • 6 websites, mine and my sisters
  • 3 instances of home assistant
  • Uptime Kuma
  • Synology with photos on it
  • Matrix server
  • Firefox sync
  • TinyTinyRSS
  • Mastodon
  • PeerTube
  • PieFed
  • Immich
  • Open WebUI (for local large language models)
  • UniFi (CCTV)
  • Baïkal (Cal- and CardDav)

I’m probably forgetting some of them now and I’m planning to host more in the future.

The problem is how to remember all of those URLs or domains. I have a system how I call them, but my extended family can’t really remember them.

I think it’s time for a landing page. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Glad to help.

+1 for Homarr. I didn’t need to learn how to write any configs. Everything can be setup in realtime, in the GUI, and is immediately testable. Homarr brought a homepage down to my skill level.

My only wish is to lock homepages behind user permissions but it’s fine, my family friends don’t intend to explore, just to get to where they’re going.

I think this is possible nowdays.

In that case. Homarr is awesome, no complaints.

I probably won’t retroact this, my family aren’t going to explore and it was more to keep them on their specific homepage and stop them getting lost. New users will be locked to their specific page, I don’t expect they’ll ever go exploring to find out.
