Either self-hosted or cloud, I assume many of you keep a server around for personal things. And I’m curious about the cool stuff you’ve got running on your personal servers.

What services do you host? Any unique stuff? Do you interact with it through ssh, termux, web server?

    -Jellyfin: for playing media that I totally own and surely did no obtain by any obscure way.

    -Qbittorrent: for reasons completely unrelated to the previous one.

    -Amule: see above.

    -Synapse (matrix server): overly complex way to send myself notifications from the server to my phone.

    -FreshRSS: to have a self hosted RSS feed server. Could I use an android app for the same thing? Sure. But it’s more fun and headache inducing this way.

    -TubeArchivist: Because I want to offload some of that cost inducing bandwidth that is making those poor YouTube executives to keep pushing more aggressive ads on their platform. I’m just that nice.

    -Caddy: because I’m just lazy.

    -Crowdsec: Because I’m just paranoid.

    Self-hosted machine. It was basically my old computer I bought back in '09. It’s a i5-750 on a Asus P5P77. It started with the 4 GB RAM I hadn’t sold until I upgrade to 8. I used a borrowed Nvidia GT730 and a 1 TB HDD at first until I upgrade my main PC GPU and bought a new HDD for the server so now it runs in a 4 TB HDD and my old GTX 1060 3 Gb. It’s a beast for my needs.

    • Jellyfin is the main reason I started my server. Initially it was so my mother could easily watch shows I would never illegally download. Until a realized it would be great for me too and friends. To not watch them…I mean, because that would be ilegal!

    • Qbittorrent…shit…oh well :)

    • Nginx, when I realized I could host my own development server and personal website

    • Komga, when I realized I could have the same benefits of Jellyfin with books and comics.

    • Tailscale, allows me to, among other things, use it as an online or LAN hard drive for me and people I like.

    • Samba, see above. It also works to keep a nice share folder between my main PC and my laptop

    The more time passes the more I realize self-hosting is the best idea ever. I get new ideias every day.

    Multiple hosts. Win2024/hyperv and proxmox

    • domain/dns/dhcp/ncp 2x
    • pihole
    • iobroker (smarthome)
    • sonarr/radarr/orowlarr
    • emby
    • sabnzbd
    • vpn-vm for torrent/soulseek
    • searxng
    • dav for calendar
    • caddy (for emby/dav from outside)
    • firefly (banking)

    And some minor, less important ones.

    All backup to a central server, which does a daily backup of the backup onto another nas. In case of emergency,just grab nas.

    I have an orangepi zero 3 with pihole

    Then an ITX PC with

    • mealie (meal planner, recipe parser, grocery list maker with a bunch of features and tools)

    • immich for self hosting a google photos alternative

    • *arr stack for torrenting Linux ISOs

    • Jellyfin for LAN media playing

    • home assistant for my VW car, our main hanging renovation lights, smoke and CO monitors, and in the future, all of the KNX smart systems in our house

    • Syncthing for syncing photo backup and music library with phone

    • Bookstack for a wiki, todos, journal, etc… (Because I didn’t want to install better services for journals when I don’t use it much)

    • paperless-ngx for documents

    • leantime for managing my personal projects, tasks, and timing

    • Valheim game server

    • Calibre-web for my eBook library backup

    • I had nextcloud but it completely broke on an update and I can’t even see the login fields anymore, it just loads forever until it takes down my network and server, so I ditched it since I never used it anyway

    • crowdsec for much better (preemptive) security than fail2ban

    • traefik for reverse proxy

      Do you have any tips (or examples) using quadlets? I tried using them but I couldn’t wrap my head around them.

    Minetest server, arr suite, plex, Pihole, calibre, homesssistant, Nextcloud.

    Interact with it through a Homarr webpage and all of it is virtualized through proxmox.

      Are you using Kavita for your books as well? I have my books on Calibre, but I’m seriously considering putting it all under Kavita.

          I guess that’s going to be the way. I’m moving all the services I have under UnRaid to ProxMox, and wanted to lower the app count. Thanks for the tip.

    Two old HP thin client PCs configured as 4TB SFTP file servers using vsftpd on Debian. Each one uses software RAID 1 with both an NVMe and SATA SSD internally, and are in two separate locations with a cron job which syncs one to the other every 24 hours.

    People who actually know what they are doing will probably find this silly, but I had fun and learned a lot setting it up.

        I am using lftp and mirror. One server functions as the “main” server, which mirrors the backup server to itself once per day at a specific time (they both run 24/7 so I set it to run very early in the morning when it is unlikely to be accessed).

        In my crontab I have:

        # # * * * /usr/bin/lftp -e "mirror -eRv [folder path on main server] [folder path on backup server]; quit;" sftp://[user]@[address of backup server]:[port number]
