What are YOU self-hosting? (lemmy.world)

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.

I haven't actually started self-hosting anything yet, though at least I've bought a domain and I'm paying for an email service using that domain. It's nice and easy while still giving me some control my e-mail address and not being beholden to the likes of Google. I did so after my long time e-mail I had had all my life through my parents' internet provider was deleted with no warning.

I've also been looking into buying a NAS for use as a media server and backup target. I'll probably go with a Synology one for now, just to keep maintenance to a minimum. Maybe in the future I'll do something more advanced.
