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.
Just testing from selfhosted instance!
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
-
Proxmox on a self-built rackserver (Will be building a second one for a proxmox cluster):
- Pi-Hole (primary)
- Home Assistant
- 2 Docker Hosts (One for Eval, one for Prod)
Raspberry Pi Zero for Pi-Hole (secondary)
On my Docker Host (All in docker-compose):
- Heimdall (Personal Dashboard)
- Portainer (Docker GUI)
- baikal (CAL & CADdav)
- vaultwarden (Password Manager)
- bookstack (Documentation, kinda abandoned because im lazy)
- changedetection(.)io (Monitoring Websites for Changes, useful for changelogs or price monitoring)
- cloudflare-ddns (DDNS because dynamic IP Adresses…)
- Grafana & InfluxDB (Dashboard and Database for Stats)
- linkding (Bookmarks aka “Have to read someday”)
- mealie (Reciepe manager)
- neko (Watch2gether but in selfhosted and more capable imo)
- nginx proxy manager (Reverse Proxy with GUI)
- paperless-ngx (Document manager with OCR)
- semaphore ui (Ansible GUI with sheduled tasks)
- Uptime Kuma (Status Monitoring)
- watchtower (Automatic updates of my docker containers because im lazy)
A Synology DS220+ for local Storage
A 5TB Hetzner Storage Box for Backups (encrypted)
A Rootserver for Games and some testing in the wild (Currently Windows, will be switched to ubuntu)
Hetzner Cloud Server with mailcow on it
Can’t ask too much off my little laptop, but here it is
- HomeAssistant
- Frigate NVR
- PiHole
- Wireguard VPN
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!
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
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
Been self hosting for over a decade at this point. Mix of custom built servers and surplus hardware over the years.
To name a few of my daily servers.
- home assistant
- paperless-ng
- jellyfin
- nextcloud
- blue iris
- audiobook shelf
With docker being so easy I have kind of lost track how much stuff i am hosting. A problem i never thought i would have :)
I have a rented server with 8 Xeon E3-1246 and 64GB at Hetzner where I host:
- Vaultwarden
- Gitlab (git repo, container registry, static blog (pages with Hugo))
- Drawio (Diagrams)
- Kroki (for Gitlab)
- Gitlab runner
- FreshRSS
- Nextcloud
- Redis
- Headscale (Tailscale server)
- Keycloak
- MariaDB
- PostgreSQL
- Plex
- Privacybin
- Wallabag
- Hedgedoc
It’s all behind a Traefik instance handling Let’s Encrypt and using the Docker socket to route traffic based on labels in docker-compose.yml. Behind these I also run k3s and from time to time some VMs. I also have a 1TB storage pod at Hetzner where I use restic to back everything up from this instance as well as from my home system and laptops.
- jellyfin and Plex (in the process of migrating)
- radarr/sonarr
- jackett and deluge
- nextcloud
I’ve had new hardware in the basement now for a while, going to slap it together and build a k8s cluster on top of rancher/harvester
Which way are you migrating?
I migrated from Plex to jellyfin.
I tried it out when I couldn’t get HEVC files to steam on Plex, and i liked it!
It doesn’t have the full ecosystem around it that Plex does, but that’s fine by me.
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.
Currently I play around with a Raspi 4 8GB with docker-compose. Most services are accessible with VPN only:
Caddy (as easy reverse proxy)
Portainer (container dashboard)
Linkding (bookmarks)
Baikal (calendar, todo list to sync with Android by caldav)
Agendav (web calendar frontend)
Dillinger (browser markdown editor with PDF export)
Trilium (note app)
Syncthing (google drive/onedrive alternative)
Seafile (file sharing)
Jellyfin (media server)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. 💓
