A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Only use jellyfin. Have a list of things want to update... but it works for now.

Yes that is a laptop usb cooler used as supplemental placebo cooling. Also a pc fan I have propped up against the hard drive feeding into the pi.

Can't recall last time used the ps4 or switch. But they're there

Not taking a picture, but here's what I have:

  • Ryzen 1700 in a giant case sitting on my desk (desktop PC is on top of that in a mini-ITX case); 2x 8TB HDDs, connected to network over Wi-Fi; hope to cut the size significantly once one of our ITX boxes need an upgrade (both Ryzen 5600s)
  • Mikrotik router (5 port) and Ubiquiti AP sitting next to my bed; Mikrotik handles my local static DNS for my public services

Running:

  • Jellyfin, as well as Samba and some other NAS stuff
  • HomeAssistant (nothing monitored though, but I plan to add my Sensi thermostat soon)
  • Actual Budget
  • Nextcloud
  • Vaultwarden (currently unused, plan to switch soon)

I also have a VPS to get around CGNAT, and I have a Wireguard VPN configured so communication is encrypted.

Plans:

  • upgrade NAS to either a mini-ITX motherboard or a mini-PC w/ external USB-C enclosure
  • actually run Ethernet - have been putting off for years
  • configure my Sensi thermostat in HA and maybe get some other smart home crap
  • use Nextcloud more - want to get SO using the notes app so I can finally kill Google Notes for shared shopping lists
  • port my PF spreadsheet to LibreOffice and actually learn to use LO Calc (currently using Google Sheets); I use GoogleFinance func for stock quotes, so I need to replace that with some other workflow (mostly rebalancing investments)
  • replace our TV or at least have an alternative for Jellyfin - the config disappears whenever our TV WiFi screws up, which is like 2-3x/month; screw you LG...

So yeah, somewhat simple. My family likes Jellyfin, but I haven't really gotten them on board with anything else.
