Since selfhosted clouds seem to be the most common thing ppl host, i’m wondering what else ppl here are selfhosting. Is anyone making use of something like excalidraw in the workplace? Curious about what apps that would be useful to always access over the web that aren’t mediaservers.
- Immich backs up photos from my phone and camera with tagging and search
- Archivebox is like a personal internet archive, I use it to save youtube videos and important memes
- Homeassistant does home automation stuff, currently I only use it to turn the speakers on/off with the tv
- Forgejo is a git host like Github, and can regularly pull external repositories to keep a personal mirror
- Actual budget is a budgeting app, nice for tracking expenses across multiple accounts
>no media servers
>mentions immich as the first one
As a backup :p
You made me actually check out Immich and I love the tagging feature. That makes it feel much more like a photo library and less like just a giant file storage solution that happens to store photos.
Immich is really good actually. Completely replaced Google Photos for me.
Mealie for recipes
Mealie is so underrated. They have meal planning, recipes, recipe parsing from the internet, grocery lists based on recipes and meal plans, like 4 different ways to organize recipes, and OIDC/SSO on top of it all!
- Matrix server
- Element web GUI
- NocoDB for various Mini databases and forms
- Joplin server
- KanBan Board
- Mealie to store recipes
- Grocy as a home ERP
- Grafana for various metrics
- Home Assistant
- NodeRed(non HA, different node)
- InfluxDB
- Zabbix for monitoring
- Vaultwarden
- etherpad
- Technitium DNS
- A NTP server
- Mesh Central
- A win11 VM with RDP
- paperless NGX
- calibre Web (or does that count as Media already)
- Agent DVR
- Spoolmann
- OrcaSlicer via Browser(linuxserver.io)
- Omada Controller
- Univention to bring everything together
- netbox to document half of the shit
- wiki.js to document the other half
Honestly,I think I have a problem.
Is Univention essentially just an LDAP server?
No,more like an “AD” replacement. Does a lot of things(DNS,DHCP,some Apps),always depends on what one needs.
You have all the solutions lol
Mumble and Wireguard
Some of my friends are heading back to mumble because discord is getting too bloated with useless features.
Wireguard is to be able to access my local network when I am away.
Wireguard + adguard means home ad blocking anywhere I want it.
I hear about people wanting alternatives to discord though I never got into using it too much personally, but does anyone know about whether or not Revolt chat is a good open-source self-hostable solution?
I’ve been testing MatterMost for a few days.
It’s closer to Slack than Discord but has most of the same features.
Check out Tailscale. It uses Wireguard under the hood, but it’s magic.
God stop pushing tailscale. It’s just abstraction on top of wireguard. Those of us who knows how VPNs work don’t want a third party involved in our routing.
- Calibreweb
- FreshRSS
- Grampsweb
- Emacs
- Gitea
- Stirling-PDF
- Vaultwarden
- Pihole
- Pyload
- Glances
- Syncthing
- Homepage
- Karakeep
I don’t often need to mess with PDFs but man StirlingPDF is just fantastic on the odd occasion that I do.
Also, curious - what do you use a download manager like PyLoad for? I’ve seen stuff like this but never found a use case.
PyLoad isn’t a container I run 24/7 because the use cases are a bit limited. Basically, if I have a large list of files that I want to pass to my NAS (perhaps a list from something like DownThemAll) that won’t complete in a short sitting, I will pass that list to PyLoad so it can just run the background.
I once downloaded about 2,000 or so office files and tools like this have let me do that automatically.

Storyteller, ever wish you could listen to an Audio book and read an ebook at the same time.
Storyteller can combine an Audio book and and ebook to create a single ebook that can be read like a normal ebook or you can listen to it and watch the actively spoken sentences highlighted in real time like a karaoke song lyrics.
ever wish you could listen to an Audio book and read an ebook at the same time.
Lol no? Absolutely not.
I don’t mean actively reading and listening to the audio book, think of it like English subtitles for a English movie. You can ignore them for the most part, until you hear something you didn’t quiet catch or you were not paying attention and missed something, it’s much easier to scroll back a little and read the text to catch up rather than play the part again. Happens a lot for me when listening to audio books. And rewinding the book to catch up on the part I missed is annoying, it’s better to just quickly read the last few lines instead.
- Gitlab (version control)
- Bookstack (wiki)
- Joplin (not a webapp, but sync server)
- Semaphore (does all of my infra updating via Ansible)
- Uptime-Kuma (monitoring/alerting)
Been thinking about adding NextCloud mostly for the Google Docs/MS Office replacement at some point.
But honestly most of my stuff is just for me, my family prefers to to use whatever commercial thing is out there. So I tend to limit things to infrastructure type things that are of personal interest to me alone.
