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.

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!

Does Actual offer a self-hosting option? I'd like to escape my Excel sheet of doom, but haven't found anything I can run in a container.

It does indeed! https://github.com/actualbudget/actual-server

Building from docker-compose is super straightforward. Generating the keys is the hardest bit of the ordeal but I have it locked into just my local network since it saves your most recent sync on your device.
