I selfhost a lot of the normal stuff everyone else does. Plex, AdguardHome, etc...
I also have a 96+ port dial-up server system: https://2600.network

I used to host a ton of stuff, now I just host my WordPress site on Linode.
I have toyed with the idea of selfhosting a Lemmy server, but that's a project for another day.
Hardware:
Software:
I purchased the server used. The services are mostly running in a virtualized cluster, which is absolutely oversized for the current tasks. However, it has motivated me to learn Kubernetes and the power consumption is within my limits.
Ohh, I'd love to share.
Running most services as docker/ kubernetes containers.
Currently running Plex (previously Jellyfin, maybe will switch back) for media streaming.
Grocy for food/task/family organisation (grocery list and so forth)
Piehole for home ad-blocker and proxy ππ»ππ»ππ»
3 Proxmox nodes 2 SFF Dell Optiplex (i5 with 32gb RAM) 1 Nuc (i7 with 64gb RAM)
1 Truenas host (old gaming PC i5 with 64gb RAM and 8TB ZFS pool
pfSense appliance for firewall
I see people listing things I've never heard about...I thought I had spent a considerable amount of time on the old sub and knew stuff. Guess I gotta hit the books.
Right now though I'm hosting everything on a 2012 Mac Mini that's running Proxmox.
Been using these programs for awhile now:
Nothing crazy but cool stuff to learn in my day to day. I want more hardware but I'm about to buy a house. It's crazy how much I'm throwing at an 11 year old computer and it's handling it all quite well.
Main Server - 37 Containers, 4 VMs
Smarthome Server - OptiPlex 3050
Testing Server - OptiPlex 7060
Lately been testing and making stuff using linuxserver/docker-baseimage-kasmvnc.
XMR Mining Server - Old tired HP SFF
Basicly everything from this guide by seth for privacy; monerod, p2pool, tor, watchtower, and a python-webserver to expose metrics/api.
I have Vaultwarden running on an old laptop, so I definitely don't have much going on. Reading through these comments gives me plenty of ideas on what else to run though!

Pangolin!
I use proxmox on my server. I virtualize opnsense (with adguard and wireguard), jellyfin, unifi, home assistant, and syncthing.
I have a synology ds220j w/ 2x10tb
Hardware: Intel 12100, 32gb ram, i350-t4 network card TP link TL-SG108E switch
I'm going to move opnsense to a dedicated box eventually
I just started months ago, but I have a yunohost server ona raspberry with nextcloud and forgejo on it :)
I self-host in a rented server. I wrote about my adventures here: https://github.com/bruj0/ProxmoxIPv6
First post in the world of Lemmy! Woot! Another Reddit escapee. I can't for the life of me understand the management team at Reddit. I get that they need to make money and that they're pissed off at the AI guys for pilfering their data but the people who contribute to the subreddits and moderate them for free are why Reddit is such a success. Why would you screw them over? It's so short sited. If you're pissed at OpenAI then talk to them and figure out how they can pay for your API access but don't screw the people that made you a success. They can afford to spend a little of the VC/Microsoft money. Okay...off the soap box now.....
Up until very recently I was running all my services on a HP DL380 Gen9 server. Beautiful server but sucks back electricity like a drunk on New Years Eve and is way too noisy for my office. Purchased 4 different Tiny PCs (3 Lenovos and 1 Dell).
One Lenovo (AMD Ryzen 3 PRO 2200GE with 32GB RAM) is running RockyLinux with Docker with 20+ containers currently running.
I'm constantly playing with different containers - adding, removing, etc. I did try making the switch to Podman as I like the idea of rootless containers but could not for the life of me get things like NFS shares and Portainer integration working and was spending way too much time fighting with it. Will probably try again in the near future.
Then the other 3 Tiny PCs are running XCP-NG with various VMs including my Xen Orchestra, Kali, a couple Windows machines (usually off), Tailscale gateway box and a few others. Again, mostly for testing things out.
Using OpnSense as my firewall. Have a TrueNAS system sharing files and another small Rockstor NAS also.
Looking forward to the community here. Thanks.
I run one main hypervisor with a bunch of different Ubuntu server VMs that I spin up as I mess with different things. I'm old-school so I am not a fan of cloud computing or even docker. Services I host that I use the most are NAS (samba), plex, pi-hole, dokuwiki (huge documentation nerd), and zoneminder which is a great open-source security cam software.
I got
There are probably other things that I don't remember right now.
In terms of hardware I got a 6 core AMD 5600X machine with a 5700XT GPU and 16GB of ram for almost all my services and personal use.
I also have an AMD 3600 machine with 3x8TB harddrives for network storage.
I self-host:
I rent a low-budget dedicated server from a data center - it only has about 4 cores and 8GB of RAM, but that's more than enough for my needs. Most importantly it has 2TB of hard drive space (for Nextcloud & Jellyfin) which is why I upgraded from my prior VPS.
Hello :)
I'm not really a "selfhoster" but I thought I'd present myself anyway since you asked :D
I do a little bit of it but only for personal use, I don't have the skills to selfhost for public use.
I have Gitea, Planka, Dokuwiki, Apache+MariaDB, and self-compiled World of Warcraft server emulators (TrinityCore, CMangos and AzerothCore).
I host a nextcloud sever (snap) and a minecraft server on a laptop I no longer use
So... ODroid N2+ is hosting a Home Assistant. Nothing to add.
I have an old Intel Nuc nuc5cpyh that is currently hosting my WordPress blog at https://some-techy-tinkering.com/. Made it self-hosted a month ago and can't be happier.
The last machine is Intel Nuc nuc7i7bnh with 2 TBs of internal and 4.5 TBs of external drives. This is my main server with:
A bunch (47 containers at present)... Won't list them here as its kind of redundant with what a lot of other people are running. My latest is Lemmy (lemmy.nine-hells.net).
Thank you for all for sharing π€© I still havent determine if I'm going self hosting at home or with a VPS, but I discovered cool projects!
Hi, I have an Unraid server (currently offline due to moving :'-/ ) running
VMs:
Docker containers:
The server was born when I merged my desktop PC, that was off and not utilized most of the time anyway, and my off the shelf NAS with 4 drives in raid5, that was slow, loud and could only run built-in garbage services. I ran Emby on Windows on my desktop, meaning I would have to manully turn it on every time I wanted to watch something.
Now my server runs on Ryzen 5 1600 with 48GB of RAM, GTX 1060 salvaged from a minig rig and total of 7 drives - 4 HDDs, 2 Sata SSD mirrored for cache and containers and 1 NVME SSD for VMs.
In addition to the standard complement of jellyfin etc. I run a Docker OS on Google's free tier with Gotify along with Uptime Kuma running on a tiny x86 computer accessed via a Cloudflare tunnel. Discord watches the watcher and notifies me if Gotify goes down!
It's a great combo. All reverse proxying is handled by HAProxy on my pfsense router.
currently, I selfhost https://beyondcombustion.net and now https://lemmy.beyondcombustion.net for /r/vaporents and hopefully others. There's other stuff I self host too, this is the fun new stuff though.
