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.

I have DietPi running on an RPi 4 with 4GB RAM.

Everything here is hosted in docker containers:

  • Portainer (docker management)
  • Nginx Proxy Manager (for reverse proxy)
  • Nextcloud (file storage + calendar)
  • Kanboard (task management + kanban board)
  • Homepage
  • Transmission (behind VPN with Flood web frontend)
  • Jellyfin media server
  • A Discord bot for my server
  • Watchman, my RSS feed to Kindle setup (https://github.com/andrwcnln/watchman)

I've probably forgotten some things but that's the main bulk of it. Can't recommend DietPi enough if you are looking for a super lightweight OS for you Pi server, has been perfect for me so far. Here are some things I am looking to host in the future too:

  • ntfy (for push notifications)
  • Apache server for my websites
  • Pi-hole
  • Plausible (a replacement for Google analytics for websites)
  • Vaultwarden

I have DietPi running on a RPi2, so it's quite slow, but i run on it (without docker containers, bad choice)

-Pi-hole

-Vaultwarden

-Transmission

-Synchthing

I tried also Nextcloud but it's a bit too slow in RPi2

I'd really recommend docker/podman etc. if you are going to host more, especially with portainer. makes things a lot easier to manage when you have lots of services hosted.

then again I'm not sure you could get much more running on an RPi 2. how does it hold up in general with the stuff you have so far?
