A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It’s probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.
Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.
How about what I’m not self-hosting? Lemmy. If anyone has an up to date guide on self-hosting a single user instance of lemmy that is actually easy to follow, that would be great. I just want to control my user account.
Oh jeez… there’s quite the list. I have a Ceph cluster of 3 nodes with 15x HDD’s and 3 SSD’s… on that cluster I run some VM’s that in turn run a Docker swarm. All Ubuntu 22.04, all commodity hardware. Currently I’m running;
Portainer to help manage this beast
NGINX which proxies all my web facing services on multiple websites.
Wordpress for my personal site which sync my Instagram pictures to it as well
MariaDB Galera cluster
Nextcloud for file sharing but also provides lots of plugin services like a password manager, email client and so on
Photoprism for my photos… I use the Nextcloud client to automatically upload new pics from my phone to Nextcloud then Photoprism is attached to that same library
OnlyOffice as a plugin to Nextcloud to allow O365-like functionality
ElasticSearch plugged into Nextcloud for full-text searching
OpenProject for project management in my own businesses
Jellyfin and Plex both attached to the same media library
E-Mail using Docker-Mailserver… so Postfix with a bunch of ancillary tools for 3 domains
Droppy as a quick-and-dirty file repo for when I need to get files to people easily
FreePBX (Asterisk) with 4 extensions around the house
MeshCentral for managing my family’s PC’s and also doing remote tech support for family, friends and customers as necessary
FOGProject for imaging PC’s and VM’s as necessary
ReactiveResume
Docker Registry set up as a caching proxy
YoutubeDL-Material
Karaoke Eternal for those nights when you just get drunk enough to karaoke
Then there’s a whole host of ancillary services; BackupPC, Unifi controller container, piHole on a couple of Raspberry Pi’s, ts-dnsserver for internal DNS management… probably a dozen other containers and tools I’m forgetting.
No, that’s what I’m using. Thankfully it works fine and I don’t worry too much about security because I just leave it turned off until I need it. The “/droppy” url directs to it but if it’s off then it just throws an error back.
Script kiddies these days got really fast. Configured a new subdomain, started droppy, within a couple seconds, all types of requests were visible in the log.
Plex, Sonarr/Radarr, Ombi, Home Assistant, Komga, Calibre-Web, Valheim. Everything is on a Debian machine I built recently, except HA which is on an O-Droid (I just copied the hardware from HA Blue and ordered the parts from Ameridroid).
I have a dedicated server where I run multiple service with podman.
Funkwhale (we share musics with a friend)
Mobilizon
Lemmy
Pleroma
All those instance are close for inscriptions they are just for me or friends.
I use posftix to relay mail.
I have on postgresql instance shared across the services.
I use traefik for ssl, I wanted traefik to auto discover the container but it didn’t work when I tried maybe it works now.
I want to throw Nextcloud into the mix, but I haven’t gotten the motivation to do that yet. I have 102TB of disk on a 4 node kubernetes cluster just for fun
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world

Their Ansible instructions are accurate and thorough.

Oh my jesus, does this thread really have 400+ comments
Edit: respectfully as an atheist
Yep, people are enthusiastic about self hosting and like talking about what they host :)
No one in my afk spaces wants to hear about it. So I’m very enthusiastic when the subject comes up online or otherwise!
I sure can tell. It’s probably also a major demographic on here
And talk about it on a self-hostable platform, no less.

Oh yeah, and a Synology NAS as a backup target :)
I respect the enterprise-level IT operation you run for your family lol
What’s it like hosting your own mail? Been considering it for a while but Gmail features/spam filter/deliverability has been tough to beat.
Fellow self-hoster, you mention Droppy – I can only find an archived repo (https://github.com/silverwind/droppy). Do you have any other source?
No, that’s what I’m using. Thankfully it works fine and I don’t worry too much about security because I just leave it turned off until I need it. The “/droppy” url directs to it but if it’s off then it just throws an error back.
Thanks a bunch!

I run an I2P instance and I’m starting to look at Plex. I wonder if those can be combined.
Thanks for running one. I ran an instance for over a year, but I stopped when I switched to a different home server that has less uptime.
I have a VPS (netcup) with 8 cores, 12GB RAM and 320GB SSD. Hosting there on Ubuntu 22.04:
At home I have a Ryzen 5 5600G with 16GB RAM on a B550 aorus elite v2 with 2TB nvme SSD and 2x 6TB seagate HDDs.

TIL about netcup! Aggressive prices. Thank you for the introduction.

Thanks for #rexxit destination!
Do you host on at your house, a VPS or something else?
All on Hetzner.
