I'm already hosting pihole, but i know there's so much great stuff out there! I want to find some useful things that I can get my hands on. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks all! I've got a lil homelab setup going now with Pihole, Jellyfin, Paperless ngx, Yacht and YT-DL. Going to be looking into it more tomorrow, this is so much fun!

How is your work flow from scanning to paperless? Does it support some kind of upload folder?

Yeah paperless supports an upload folder. My scanner has an ability to scan to a network drive, so I scan things onto a shared drive on my homelab box, paperless consumes the scanned PDF and places it into the paperless "inbox".

Cool, that's really easy. I'll have to bring that up with my gf. She's basically hoarding printouts and stuff (she's a teacher) and this might help her in getting it a bit more organized

Yep, supports upload folder, normal upload in the application and also automatically importing from email based on folder/label
