These services are the result of years of development and administrating my lab and while there is still some cruft, it's mostly services that I think have real utility.

As far as hardware:

• Running pfsense on a toughbook laptop as a router-firewall.

• A SuperMicro 24 bay disk-shelf with Proxmox and ZFS for NAS duties and a couple services.

• Lenovo Tiny boxes with a Proxmox cluster for the majority of my local services.

• Dell managed switch

• A few Raspberry-pi's with Raspbian for various things.

• Linksys AP for wifi

Edit: Spelling is hard.

As an offensive security worker.... I can't help but read people listing out their attack surface 😂

I have a VPS (netcup) with 8 cores, 12GB RAM and 320GB SSD. Hosting there on Ubuntu 22.04:

• Matrix
• Mastodon
• Nextcloud
• Wordpress
• Adguard
• Stirling PDF
• Gotify
• Bitwarden

At home I have a Ryzen 5 5600G with 16GB RAM on a B550 aorus elite v2 with 2TB nvme SSD and 2x 6TB seagate HDDs.

Hosting there on Fedora 38 KDE:

• Lemmy
• Photoview
• ArozOS
• Paperless
• Dashdot

Currently a new instance of Lemmy, other than that I have a Synology NAS where I host:

• Plex
• Synology Drive (alternative to Dropbox etc.)
• Synology Office (alternative to Google Docs)
• VPN server

There's also docker where I host:

• Gitlab
• AdGuard Home

• 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.

• 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.

• Lemmy Instance
• VaultWarden - Password manager
• Jellyfin - Movies/TV Shows
• Roon / Roon ARC - Music
• OneDev - Used to use Gitlab but couldn't afford the self-hosted instance anymore and want the paid features, which this mostly has.
• Dokuwiki - Used to use as a wiki, switched to...
• Trilium - Similar to Obsidian but open source.
• Kavita - Comics/books
• TubeArchivist - YouTube video downloader/viewer
• PodGrab - Podcast manager
• Wallabag - Website article saver/bookmarker etc. If anyone has a better suggestion for FOSS bookmark management please let me know!
• Mealie - Recipe manager (grabs recipes from a ton of different sites)

I use TrueNAS Scale for my NAS and Ubuntu server for my VM's/home server. I probably am forgetting something, but, that's what's listed in my Portainer :).

Pihole Keycloak Lemmy

The "usual" Plex stack:

Plex Sonarr Radarr Readarr Calibre & Calibre-Web Sabnzbd Nzbhydra

I want to throw Nextcloud into the mix, but I haven't gotten the motivation to do that yet. I have 102TB of disk on a 4 node kubernetes cluster just for fun

I run:

• Matrix
• Mastodon
• Pixelfed

I run my own kubernetes cluster in 3 thinkcentres I bougth for cheap. Each of them has a proxmox and an ubuntu with k3s on top of it. The storage is an NFS I run from a good old qnap.

https://files.catbox.moe/8w2e7y.png

• I run my dashy (screenshot above) as homepage.
• Plex for media consumption
• Chat-with-gpt because it is far cheaper than an openai subscription
• Self hosted vaultwarden for the family
• Home assistant for home automation
• Klipper for the 3d printer
• Pi hole in a raspberry pi next to my router to kill ads at home
• Grafana with some prometheuses to monitor all the infra
• Some operators to monitor the external storage in backblaze
• A mastodon instance on Hetzner
• A lemmy instance on Hetzner too
• My blog in Netlify. A static site made with Hugo
• ArgoCD. Every app has its own repo with its descriptors.
• Backups for Hetzner services

I used to have an irc bouncer too but I didn't use it enough.

My short term plans are adding tdarr and transmission.

On 3 Rpis and a NAS around my home:

• Nextcloud - Google replacement

• Actual Budget - YNAB type server that's super simple and meets my needs

• Apache web server - portal to my projects

• PiHole - DNS pass/allow list

• PiVPN - Allows me to connect to my home VPN when abroad

• 2009Scape - A little RuneScape Private Server I turn on and off on my desktop when I'd like to afk at work

• Docker - A couple docker instances - one on my test pi I use to roll out onto my "prod" servers

• Backup server - 14TB backup with an offsite copy :D

• Joplin - Note-taking app - barely a server connected through Nextcloud

• Plex - Everyone knows about Plex - I'm thinking of switching to JellyFin

• rtorrent - kinda old-school compared to the *arr programs but I enjoy manually downloading all my media :)

Hope I'm not forgetting any!

Got 2 24/7 runners in my home:

1. Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server on a tiny Dell Optiplex 7000 server (Intel 12700T), strapped under my desk, hosting everything in docker:

• Plex
• *arrs, on top of a Gluetun container for privacy
• QBittorrent, to download big files, like ... eh ... linux distributions
• NginX Proxy Manager
• PhotoPrism (I subscribe, it's awesome, cannot recommend it enough)
• Portainer, as a management interface
• Wireguard VPN server, to enable me to get into my LAN and prevent having to expose anything to the public internet.
• Watchtower, for keeping things up to date.

2. A Synology 718+ with 10 TB in a a dual SHR RAID.

• PhotoPrism storage
• Plex media storage

In addition, I'm hosting a couple of Wireguard VPS in the US and a Nordic country to give me access to regional content (I pay for a few regional services through friends living there - i.e. they pay monthly and I pay them yearly for an account on a region-locked service) - not sure if that counts as "self-hosting" :)

Oh jeez... there's quite the list. I have a Ceph cluster of 3 nodes with 15x HDD's and 3 SSD's... on that cluster I run some VM's that in turn run a Docker swarm. All Ubuntu 22.04, all commodity hardware. Currently I'm running;

• Portainer to help manage this beast
• NGINX which proxies all my web facing services on multiple websites.
• Wordpress for my personal site which sync my Instagram pictures to it as well
• MariaDB Galera cluster
• Nextcloud for file sharing but also provides lots of plugin services like a password manager, email client and so on
• Photoprism for my photos... I use the Nextcloud client to automatically upload new pics from my phone to Nextcloud then Photoprism is attached to that same library
• OnlyOffice as a plugin to Nextcloud to allow O365-like functionality
• ElasticSearch plugged into Nextcloud for full-text searching
• OpenProject for project management in my own businesses
• Jellyfin and Plex both attached to the same media library
• E-Mail using Docker-Mailserver... so Postfix with a bunch of ancillary tools for 3 domains
• Droppy as a quick-and-dirty file repo for when I need to get files to people easily
• FreePBX (Asterisk) with 4 extensions around the house
• MeshCentral for managing my family's PC's and also doing remote tech support for family, friends and customers as necessary
• FOGProject for imaging PC's and VM's as necessary
• ReactiveResume
• Docker Registry set up as a caching proxy
• YoutubeDL-Material
• Karaoke Eternal for those nights when you just get drunk enough to karaoke

Then there's a whole host of ancillary services; BackupPC, Unifi controller container, piHole on a couple of Raspberry Pi's, ts-dnsserver for internal DNS management... probably a dozen other containers and tools I'm forgetting.

Oh yeah, and a Synology NAS as a backup target :)

I host these:

• Vaultwarden(saves my life almost everyday)
• Jellyfin (makes my life fun)
• Sonarr & Radarr
• Home assistant(the best thing I've done in a while)
• freshRSS( none of that curated for you bullshit)
• Whoogle.(like google search but not the tracking)
• Flatnotes, Qbittorrent, Metube, Databag, Photoprism, kavita, NExtcloud, Guacomole(A few services I use rarely.)

• Matrix Synapse
• Paperless-ngx
• MediaTracker
• Lychee
• Immich
• AudioBookShelf
• Baikal
• Monica
• Nextcloud
• Calibre-web
• Piwigo
• Pinry
• Prosody
• Shaarli
• Wallabag
• mygpodder
• Peertube
• Mealie
• Mastodon
• Firefox sync
• Seafile
• Dokuwiki
• The Lounge
• Redmine
• Gitea
• Castopod
• Portainer

This assortment is run under a combination of Proxmox LXC containers, docker containers, and Yunohost. Mostly I use it to play around, but most are heavily used by my wife and I. I'm planning to rebuild everything and making things more "official". Looking to convert from a "lab" to actually making it "production" with solid failure routes and backups. I am looking to move anything currently under Yunohost to docker/lxc and to start making use of podman. Recently saw CosmOS and think it might be a good alternative to portainer.

Hardware:

• Node 1: Lenovo m93p tiny with 16GB RAM and 250GB SSD - Proxmox
• Node 2: Lenovo m93p tiny with 16GB RAM and 250GB SSD - Proxmox
• Node 3: Gigabyte Brix with 16GB RAM and 500GB Sata SSD, 128GB m.2 SSD - Proxmox
• Node 4: Trigkey Green G3 with 16GB RAM and 1TB Sata SSD - Proxmox
• TPLink managed switch
• TerraMaster 2-bay NAS with 2x 2TB HD (NFS host for containers)
• Synology ds220j NAS with 2x 8TB HD (backup of home desktops, laptops, cell phones, and lab systems)

These days I just got a plex server and a project zomboid server running.

36 TB server:

• Nextcloud (a little heavier than I'd like considering something that's just filesharing)
• Jellyfin
• Audiobookshelf
• Kavita
• Authentik
• N.eko with protection via authentik (rabbit clone so I can watch things with friends even if it's not on jellyfin)
• Homepage so I can remember everything -_-

Raspberry pi:

• Adguard home, which router pushes all traffic dns through
• Mopidy - hooked the pi to my speakers, can start playing via web interface. Don't love it, but it's working.

I'm actually not that into actual self-hosting (it feels too close to my day job). But i love the idea of it, and actually do host my own RSS Reader: It's selfoss (PHP + SQLite, so, very simple) and i have been using ever since google reader shut down. It runs on my uberspace.de instance.

Too many things:

This is my little setup at work

Kubernetes cluster (created by kubespray)

• "Glue" services:
  • nginx ingress controller (automatically sets up nginx vhosts for Kubernetes apps)
  • cert-manager (gets SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt for any apps that need them)
  • MetalLB (finds and provides an IP for Kubernetes services)
  • rook (storage provisioner--I have a few partitions & drives dedicated for rook to provide storage to the apps on the cluster)
• Apps:
  • GitLab (via GitLab helm chart which brings along nginx ingress and cert-manager)
  • Nextcloud (via Nextcloud helm chart)
  • Mattermost (via Mattermost helm chart)
  • Rancher
• Apps deployed via GitLab CI/CD (primarily through Auto DevOps):
  • Company website
  • Firmware updates for embedded systems
  • Mobile apps

Manjaro Linux with ZFS on some old gaming PC.

Home Automation and IoT with HomeAssistant in a virtual box. Database for storing some IoT history (not hooked up to Home Assistant yet but recording from MQTT) with MariaDB. Media Server with Emby. Photograph Backups with Immich; just playing with this for now. Constantly have problems running it to do with not connecting to Redis or PostGres :/ MQTT Server with Mosquitto for some custom IoT devices. VPN with WireGuard. File Syncronization with Syncthing; to/from phone and other computers. Torrenting with Deluge and Deluge Web.

I run an I2P instance and I'm starting to look at Plex. I wonder if those can be combined.
