Wish I had the time/energy to host this much… Currently I’m running
Plex
Nextcloud (snap on ubuntu VM because its easy)
pihole
pivpn
I’m also running Jellyfin and Navidrome, in an attempt to determine if they are good alternatives to Plex for like 6 months at this point. See comments above about time/energy.
I’m also hosting both jellyfin & navidrome to see if I can get rid of plex for music.
Currently I find plex better at managing my library, but with all music related development going to plexamp and the devs decision to lock out my users from it despite having paid for plex plass for my users, I have to find an alternative that is user friendly.
I am hoping that once my library is sufficiently large, with the metadata related issues being resolved, I can finally introduce them to my music library.

I’m also dual running Plex and Jellyfin. Ive had a few files I’ve downloaded that Plex won’t play but Jellyfin will. I like plexs UX a smidge better but if more issues like that pop up I’ll be a convert
I didnt use any speciall features on plex, but for me the only advantage of plex was the abbility to have all movies/tv shows in one folder. After switching to jellyfin and *arrs the folder structure is sorted so I have 0 reasons to consider plex again
I need to get back into self hosting. It’s been a while and the server has been off the whole time… Think I need to get the server back up and running and take some inspiration from yourself.
Bookmarks are cool and all, but having the ability to tap (if on mobile) the link or click on it visually is important. For example, I access my local dashboard via Wireguard on my phone, I can then tap the service I need to access locally. IMO, that is much nicer than hitting the browser’s menu to find the bookmark and then clicking on it.
Aside from that, if you are like me and have hundreds of bookmarks, and a significant other less technically savvy as you are and are visual, then having a dashboard to go to makes it a lot easier!
I like the “at a glance” functionality that the various APIs provide. I can view all relevant information on a single page without having to click through different apps. I just set this as my homepage on chrome and it’s like bookmarks on steroids

What software is that?
It’s called Homepage. Not sure if I’m allowed to link to stuff here. But it’s basically a YAML based landing page for your self hosted apps
Thanks! I’ll check it out. (I don’t know the rules wel enough either.)

Jellyfin ftw

I love Jellyfin, but they need to sort their subtitle support out.
Idk is it jellyfin or bazarr (probably bazarr), but subtitles are working fine here.
My Setup:
All running in docker on two synologys.

Why not just use bookmarks?

Good job, now fill the server :)
Haha trying my damnest!
Looks super cool. How do you add the uptime on top?
It’s one of the standard Homepage widgets. You can also enable disk utilization etc
Its…beautiful 🥲
Nothing I can see. But definitely things I’m missing!
So Thankyou!
What is this dashboard?
It’s called homepage
This is awesome, thanks! Going to install it on my Odroid HC2 running OpenMedia 6!
Thanks!
