    Well thanks to the soon to be dead /r/selfhosted on reddit I started selfhosting few years ago and now approximately 90% of my stuff is selfhosted:

    • Gitlab
    • RocketChat
    • VS Code
    • Anonaddy
    • Etherpad
    • Min.io
    • Archivebox
    • FreshRSS
    • FileStash
    • Matomo
    • InfiniteWP
    • piHole

    as daily drivers and several others that I use from time to time.

      Self hosted Vscode? How does that work, like a remote workspace via web or directly in a local Vscode session? Did it handle extensions well?

        I haven’t used it in a while, maybe its better. Basically since vscode is an electron app it can run im he browser. You can even use https://vscode.dev which is the official web version. Iirc it didn’t have the same plugins, but it’s pretty much the same thing.

        Its super useful when you deploy alongside containers as an easy way to change configs in shared volumes.

      Is installing VSCode locally “self hosting”? I thought that was how everybody did it. I just run the executable - no Docker or anything - for coding, testing etc. but I’m not sure what a VSCode “server” would even do.

      64TB Raw, 2TB NVMe Cache

      Respect! Nobody can accuse you of a half-assed effort.

      MeTube

      This looks great. I am going to spin up an instance.

        Just for redundancy! One DC VM per physical vSphere host. Each DC also handles internal DNS records for my network.

      Very impressive. I gotta ask, how is this feasible cost-wise? Mostly as in licensing for vshpere. I know you can get pretty far in windows server with evaluation keys, butI run an ESXi server on eval mode cuz I’m cheap and have to reset the license every 90 days with some commands and reboot 😅

      What is the scale of your network, like is this all just in your house?

    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

      How does mapcrafter run for you now? I’m hosting a vanilla server and that’s exactly what I need to see our map. I’m just concerned that it doesn’t function properly now due to recent updates.

      Thanks!

    I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.

        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.

      Hi, thanks for your comment! I just visited your blog and noticed that it loads fairly quickly: I assume you must have some sort of CDN set up. Could you point me to how you went about setting up the CDN for your domain/website? Thanks!

        No CDN. The secret is way simpler: It’s a static site. Just a bunch of files served directly by Nginx. I use Pelican to generate the site from Markdown files.

    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

    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:

    For the public I host:

    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.

      Are you using the mail service from Hetzner or are you using their servers to host it yourself?

    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.

    I’ve got a couple VPSes, hosting

    • Mailcow, because email is identity.
    • Asterisk, because phone #s are also identity.
    • Matrix-Synapse, for personal messaging even though XMPP is probably better.
    • ttrss, even though it’s junk software with a jerk developer.
    • A bunch of self-developed web apps

    Self hosting email is obnoxious, but it’s also one of the only remnants of the traditional distributed internet that’s still broadly accepted.

      I just got going on matrix and I wish there were better XMPP iOS apps. Chat services without friends don’t work and bad iOS apps keeps people away. After all this time there isn’t a good adoption of XMPP for iOS except iMessage I guess.

        @GregoryTheGreat @beigegull I’ve got a few friends using xmpp apps on iOS, mostly snikket (which is a rebranded siskin). Works well, notifications work as they should, so does audio/video calling, and e2ee works too of course. Monal has apparently gotten better recently

      @beigegull @devve Totally agree that your email is basically your de facto identity online. I didn’t have the heart to fully host my own mail server but I made the decision to ditch gmail and use my own domain with a hosted provider. I am hosting my own IMAP server so the plan will be to work my way up to where you are eventually…
