Hello everyone! Mods here 😊
Tell us, what services do you selfhost? Extra points for selfhosted hardware infrastructure.
Feel free to take it as a chance to present yourself to the community!

Ok, you’ve got me curious - Why 3 different active directory domain controllers?
Just for redundancy! One DC VM per physical vSphere host. Each DC also handles internal DNS records for my network.

Adding:
-
proxmox
-
podman/portainer
-
unbound
-
ngnx proxy mgr
-
Solid server
-
homepage

My “Home Lab” loosely put, is an amalgamation of this:
Docker and Docker Compose installed on Ubuntu on a Dell PowerEdge 530 and on that docker host I have: -Portainer
-Nginx Proxy Manager
-Cloudflare Dynamic DNS
-Chromium
-Dozzle
-Gluetun
-Homarr
-Jellyfin
-Kanboard
-Komga
-Radarr
-Lidarr
-Sonarr
-Navodrome
-netbooyxyz (work in progress)
-Prowlarr
-qBittorrent
-Pairdrop
-Resilio-Sync
-Searxng
-Siganl CLI container for alerts
-Uptime Kuma
-VSCode
-WikiJS
-Watchtower
On one of my Pi’s:
-Pihole
-Pialert
-fail2ban
-PIVPN
-Unbound
The weakest part of my setup arguably is between my storage “solution” and my networking setup.
Storage is just a bunch of large drives in the Dell. Next upgrade is a new router solution, but still use my current router for a wireless access point strictly for IOT and putting my other devices on separate VLANs.
I was thinking about getting a Nextcloud going, but not sure I want to as of right now.
Just testing from selfhosted instance!
Host all the things!
Wordpress, SMTP/IMAP, tor, bittorrent, Nextcloud, Plex, NTP, photo galleries, DoT…
I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.
Wait, what? How are hosting someone else’s website?
OK, here’s how it happened.
I was hungry, and I wanted to see the menu for my local pizza joint. I couldn’t find it anywhere.
I discovered that all their socials linked to a website that wouldn’t load. When I checked, the domain had lapsed.
Out of frustration, I purchased the domain and pulled the last snapshot of their website off archive.org. It had their full menu as a PDF.
6 months later and it’s still getting visitors from their facebook page, who are viewing the menu. They haven’t even realised.
I strive to be this level of…
Whatever this is
That’s funny. Imagine how confused they’ll be when/if they find out.
What a hero!
Hello
Let’s have a look at the inventory
-
RPI 4B
- OpenHab (Openhabian actually, so some additional services like Zigbee2MQTT or Grafana)
-
HP EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500T, 8GiB RAM - this one is currently the mainstay of my lab, running containers with docker-compose
- Nginx as reverse proxy (+ fail2ban, letsencrypt)
- Paperless-ngx (+ Redis, Tika, Gotenberg)
- Jellyfin
- Minecraft server (+ Mapcrafter)
- ddclient
- Heimdall
-
Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro i7-8700T 32GiB RAM
- I’ve gotten this one fairly recently. A real bargain - costed as much as the CPU alone and was in pristine condition. I will be migrating the workload from EliteDesk to this one. I decided to try ProxMox this time though, so I need to learn a bit first. Also perhaps add a second SSD
-
Can’t ask too much off my little laptop, but here it is
- HomeAssistant
- Frigate NVR
- PiHole
- Wireguard VPN
I don’t selfhost very much compared to other people and my hardware’s pretty much either all literally found in the garbage or 2nd hand, but here it is
PiHole
WireGuard server that passes trough pihole adblocking
Homarr (lol)
Deluge
The system is mostly a NAS that I also run the occasinal general purpose VM off of, here are the specs for the 3 ppl that care:
CPU: AMD FX-8320E
RAM: 16GB
Storage: 5x2TB Seagate something something 7200RPM in RAIDz1, 128 GB random chinese SSD (mostly for VMs and apps) the, OS runs off of a flash drive
OS: TrueNAS scale
Feel free to take it as a chance to present yourself to the community!
Hello, my name is Zingo and I have a selfhosting addition going back to 2016 when I bought my first NAS with docker capabilities.
Community: Hi Zingo! Welcome!
Thank you.
Currently struggling more than even as it starts to take over my life. I have tried over hundreds of services.
I’ll try to find strength to list some at a later stage in this healing process. Sorry no bonus points. Maybe in the next session.
Thank you all for this awesome support. I would be lost without you. 💓
Using LXD:
- ddclient
- Jellyfin (2)
- Minecraft (proxy + 4 servers)
- Satisfactory server
- V Rising
- Gitea vcs
- wordpress
- rtorrent
- other web servers
Using rootless Podman + Systemd service:
- Vaultwarden
- Linkding
- Traefik
- Immich photo backup
- Nextcloud (though I hate it, probably will stop)
- Grafana
- Prometheus
- Prowlarr/Radarr/Sonarr/Lidarr/Bazarr/Recyclarr
- Rtorrent + Flood
- Jellyseerr
- Navidrome (Subsonic server)
- Miniflux (RSS)
- Woodpecker (CI integration for Gitea)
- Tubearchivist (yt-dl)
- wg-easy (wireguard)
- searxng
All services are split across 2 DIY servers (in towers). 15TB of media stored on HDD with btrfs duplicated across both servers. One server host is Alpine Linux, the other is Opensuse MicroOS. LXD containers usually are Debian 12 or Alpine. I’m beginning to migrate some things to a cluster of (12) raspberry pi 3s. Unsure what to choose for rpi’s, maybe, Fedora CoreOS (ublue), although Alpine does work extremely well on them (once you get them set up with it).
+ router running fresh tomato :)
Also mailcow for email, on a VPS, although I need to switch to a new provider, having difficulty with delivery using Linode and OVHCloud.
Available from internet:
- jellyfin
- jellyseerr
- immich
- paperless-ngx
- owncloud ocis
- traefik
- homarr
Available only from local:
- the *arr stack
- qbittorrent
- jackett
- watchtower
- apprise
- netdata (kinda new, still have to fully understand how it works)
- portainer
- speedtest-tracker
- homepage
Security
All the services available from internet, just goes through traefik to terminate https, I rely on the build in authentication of each service. To add another layer of security, I have fail2ban active on all those services.
I have a public IP, and I have open on my router ports 80, 443, a random port for ssh and vpn.
Hardware:
Memory: System RAM: total: 8 GiB available: 7.73 GiB used: 4.46 GiB (57.7%) Report: arrays: 1 slots: 4 modules: 2 type: DDR3 CPU: Info: 6-core model: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T bits: 64 type: MCP cache: L2: 3 MiB Graphics: Device-1: NVIDIA GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti] driver: nvidia v: 535.98
docker compose files
All the docker compose files + how I configured everything is available at: https://github.com/simone-viozzi/my-server
Bonus:
Since I like the ability of btrfs to do snapshots, I created all important docker volumes as btrfs subvolumes. Then I created a backup script that literally sends the subvolume (encrypted) to an external cloud. This does not allow incremental backups and most likely is not the best backup solution… but it works… the repo is: https://github.com/simone-viozzi/btrfs2cloud-backup
I welcome any advice / criticism!
home assistant, freshrss (and a few related services such as rss-bridge), nitter and piped. I tried to host libregrammar, but ran out of memory.
Hosting a whole bunch of stuff for myself, the family and also the public. For the larger family I’m hosting eMail but using a managed service offering for that (Hetzner). Too old to run my own IMAP/SMTP infrastructure ;)
For a few private societies I’m hosting:
- Mattermost
- NextCloud
- WordPress https://www.uckermark-blog.de/
For the public I host:
- Mastodon at https://hub.uckermark.social
- Mastodon at https://tetrax.de/
- BookWyrm at https://books.mxhdr.net/
- Mobilizon at https://termine.uckermark.social/
- MatrixChat at https://matrix.mxhdr.net
- Element WebUI for Matrix at https://element-web.explain-it.org/
Mostly formyself, but not restricted I’m hosting:
- Pixelfed
- LinkDing for Bookmarks
- Excalidraw
- Grafana
- OverLeaf
- StandardNotes Server
- PiHole
- GitTea
- FreshRSS
- Minio S3-kompatible Object Storage as Backend for Mastodon & Pixelfed (on an old Dell Optiplex at home over my DSL Line)
- GoToSocial Fediverse Client (On a RaspberryPi at home)
- PeerTube for public projects (on the same old Dell OptiPlex)
- PeerTube as private Video Streaming platform (on a Dell Precision 3500 tower)
Most services run in Docker Containers on some VPS at Hetzner. Some stuff runs in Docker Containers on old spare hardware at home.
I joined to learn, still not self-hosting anything, but I intend to use an 11yo Compaq laptop (i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD) as a server while I’m still practicing. I intend to self-host a lemmy instance and a nextcloud server.
Thanks for everything you guys have been sharing I’ve already got some good leads, gonna try out YunoHost for starters
