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.

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)

You're doing that as a full-time job, right?

No, just a hobby. Been playing around for about a year. It started small with an old mac mini and Yunohost. Then I decided to play with Proxmox and bought a used m93p. Then I read about Proxmox clusters, so I got another m93p. I was going to use the mac mini in the cluster, but it was getting too slow, so I bought the Brix. Then I decided to migrate the Yunohost setup over to a VM in Proxmox. Then I figured I should learn a bit about docker. And it spiraled.

I spend maybe 10-12 hours a month on installation and configuration. I spend way more time using it. A couple of weeks ago I spent about 15 hours over the weekend importing/uploading my audiobooks into AudioBookShelf. Last year I spent several weekends getting my Calibre library in shape and moving it to the web.

I figure this is a much cheaper and safer hobby than drinking.
