Selfhosted

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.

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.

Mail server, pi-hole, mediawiki, kanboard, Tiny Tiny RSS, Baïkal, Minetest, Transmission, Jellyfin, Filestash and some homebrew.

I use Wireguard to access all that from outside my network. This way, my mail server only exposes smtp.

  • whats your opinion on selfhosting mail servers?
  • why have you chosen baikal over radicale?
  • are you happy with filestash? im torn between filestash and filebrowser

I'm self-hosting my mail server for all kinds of neat tricks, like turning mailing lists into RSS feeds and putting attached bills in the right folder. But it is tricky to pull off, because 90% of all email is spam so you must take that seriously because otherwise nobody will accept you mail. One thing I learned quickly is not to use PGP. They almost always and up in spam boxes.

I switched from radicale to baikal because vdirsyncer (which I then used) didn't agree with radicale on the caldav standard. And I'm very happy with Filestash. It's fast and does the only thing I need it do do, stash files.

BTW I used to use NextCloud, but that was way too much work and I really like tools that do just one thing and do it well.

Dell Optiplex SFF ex office machine..

SearxNG Passbolt Nextcloud Airsonic Wordpress PrivateBin SHLink FreshRSS Gitea Shaarli

All subdomains on apache proxies.. its a bit of a mess though. Whenever it comes to update something I can never remember how I installed it. Theres a heady mix of script installs, deb installs, source installs. I've got Gitea ready to update but I have no idea what method I used to install it :')

These comments inspire me so much to get back into my self-hosting. Right now, I'm running

  • Foundry (a virtual table top for ttrps)
  • Nextcloud (which I don't use)
  • Jellyfin (which I also don't use)

Interesting, I have an Unraid server that does all of these in one. Whats the benefit of splitting them like that?

My general rule is to not self host things that are good enough / free (as in $$ not FOSS). So I don't host email or music. I'm not a huge music person so spotify does the job, and gmail's been great since it started.

Things I do host

  • media server (jellyfin + sonarr/radarr etc)
  • stable diffusion image generation server
  • games (starbound mostly, killed minecraft after microsoft takeover)
  • lemmy
  • comics/manga server (komga)
  • yt-dl web interface

Why did you killed Minecraft after MS takeover? Especially after you wrote that you use gmail

What's the performance of Frigate like on an N5095? I've got a J5105 that I'm tempted to use for a few of my cameras, but worried I'll be wasting my time.
