A simple question to this community, what are you self-hosting? It’s probably fun to hear from each-other what services we are running.

Please mention at least the service (e.g. e-mail) and the software (e.g. postfix). Extra bonus points for also mentioning the OS and/or hardware (e.g. Linux Distribution, raspberry pi, etc) you are running on.

    • Plex and Jellyfin for movies and TV shows. I want to switch from Plex to Jellyfin but it is not quite there yet. It‘s very little effort to keep Jellyfin running in parallel though. I am keeping it around to regularly compare the two and re-evaluate.
    • Tube Archivist for archiving and watching YouTube videos.
    • Miniflux for reading feeds.
    • Nextcloud, mainly for calendars and contacts; occasionally for sharing files with others.
    • Syncthing for syncing files.
    • Financier for budgeting.
    • Paperless-ngx for managing documents.
    • Qbittorrent for downloading and sharing Linux ISOs.
    • Prowlarr for searching Linux ISOs.
    • Copyparty for sharing Linux ISOs with friends.
    • Shaarli for saving bookmarks.
    • Jekyll for statically generating my personal blog.
    • Caddy as HTTP server / reverse proxy for all of the above. Automatically provisions certificates from Let‘s Encrypt.
    • PostgreSQL as database for Nextcloud and Miniflux.
    • Simple Nixos Mailserver for emails with Postfix, Dovecot and rspamd.
    • Dehydrated for getting certificates from Let‘s Encrypt for the mail server.
    • Btrbk and Restic for backups.

    Most of this stuff runs on my server at home (ASRock J4105-ITX, 8 GB RAM , 250 GB SSD, 18 TB HDD). The mail server and the blog run on a cheap VPS (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 20 GB SSD). Both servers run NixOS.

        Need to have the infrastructure ready for when those sweet ISOs drop.

      Quick question: have you thought about hosting Radicale and filebrowser instead of NextCloud? I think that would be definetly lighter on your system.

      Also: I have read lots of mixed opinions whether mailservers should be selfhosted - what is your take on this? Do you know about problems reaching the big player mailservers?

        When I looked around for CalDAV solutions the last time Nextcloud was the only one that allowed me to share calendars with my SO. Nextcloud isn‘t very taxing on my system because it doesn‘t do anything most of the time.

        Do you know about problems reaching the big player mailservers?

        Honestly, I don‘t know. I have never had a confirmed case of an email being rejected or classified as spam. There were some cases of not getting an answer to an email. But that could also be explained by shitty customer service.

        It is tricky to setup everything correctly if you are trying to do it all on your own but SNM holds your hand for setting up DKIM, SPF and DMARC. That‘s where some people may have problems. Also, forget about setting up a mail server at home with any IP address you get from your internet provider.
