Hello everyone! Mods here 😊
Tell us, what services do you selfhost? Extra points for selfhosted hardware infrastructure.
Feel free to take it as a chance to present yourself to the community!

Well thanks to the soon to be dead /r/selfhosted on reddit I started selfhosting few years ago and now approximately 90% of my stuff is selfhosted:
- Gitlab
- RocketChat
- VS Code
- Anonaddy
- Etherpad
- Min.io
- Archivebox
- FreshRSS
- FileStash
- Matomo
- InfiniteWP
- piHole
as daily drivers and several others that I use from time to time.
wait, vscode self hosted?, how
With this Docker image: lscr.io/linuxserver/code-server
Here is a sample docker-compose.yml.
edit: replaced code block with link due to the formatting being a complete mess
Self hosted Vscode? How does that work, like a remote workspace via web or directly in a local Vscode session? Did it handle extensions well?
I haven’t used it in a while, maybe its better. Basically since vscode is an electron app it can run im he browser. You can even use https://vscode.dev which is the official web version. Iirc it didn’t have the same plugins, but it’s pretty much the same thing.
Its super useful when you deploy alongside containers as an easy way to change configs in shared volumes.
If this comment is federating then I started hosting my first service – Lemmy itself.
I’m seeing it from my own selfhosted Lemmy instance!

Umami analytics looks exactly like what I was looking for. Thanks! ntfy looks very useful as well.

[email protected]> Audiobookshelf
I didn’t know that existed and now I love it and started up a docker container for it!
Thanks! :D
Also love it - I use it to auto download my podcasts

Respect! Nobody can accuse you of a half-assed effort.
MeTube
This looks great. I am going to spin up an instance.
Very impressive. I gotta ask, how is this feasible cost-wise? Mostly as in licensing for vshpere. I know you can get pretty far in windows server with evaluation keys, butI run an ESXi server on eval mode cuz I’m cheap and have to reset the license every 90 days with some commands and reboot 😅
What is the scale of your network, like is this all just in your house?
Ok, you’ve got me curious - Why 3 different active directory domain controllers?
Just for redundancy! One DC VM per physical vSphere host. Each DC also handles internal DNS records for my network.
Hello
Let’s have a look at the inventory
-
RPI 4B
- OpenHab (Openhabian actually, so some additional services like Zigbee2MQTT or Grafana)
-
HP EliteDesk 800 G2 i5-6500T, 8GiB RAM - this one is currently the mainstay of my lab, running containers with docker-compose
- Nginx as reverse proxy (+ fail2ban, letsencrypt)
- Paperless-ngx (+ Redis, Tika, Gotenberg)
- Jellyfin
- Minecraft server (+ Mapcrafter)
- ddclient
- Heimdall
-
Dell OptiPlex 7060 Micro i7-8700T 32GiB RAM
- I’ve gotten this one fairly recently. A real bargain - costed as much as the CPU alone and was in pristine condition. I will be migrating the workload from EliteDesk to this one. I decided to try ProxMox this time though, so I need to learn a bit first. Also perhaps add a second SSD
How does mapcrafter run for you now? I’m hosting a vanilla server and that’s exactly what I need to see our map. I’m just concerned that it doesn’t function properly now due to recent updates.
Thanks!

I will go first 😌
I selfhost codimd, vaultwarden, kuma, immich, home assistant, trilium, hugo, gotify, wakapi and umami. I have one VPS and one custom built NAS at home.
I read you 👀🦎
Hugo? As in your generated site or you have some sort of service that costs hugo that generates and deploys your site or something else?
I joined to learn, still not self-hosting anything, but I intend to use an 11yo Compaq laptop (i5, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD) as a server while I’m still practicing. I intend to self-host a lemmy instance and a nextcloud server.
Thanks for everything you guys have been sharing I’ve already got some good leads, gonna try out YunoHost for starters
Hello selfhosters.
Here’s my list of stuff:
On a VPS hosted in Germany:
- Nextcloud
- Mailcow for my own domain
- A blog (https://www.ninjazumbi.com)
- Wallabag
- FreshRSS
- WireGuard VPN
On my home server (my old gaming PC, repurposed)
- Proxmox to manage several containers/VMs:
- OPNsense Firewall
- HomeAssistant
- Pihole
- Gitlab
- Jellyfin
Hi, thanks for your comment! I just visited your blog and noticed that it loads fairly quickly: I assume you must have some sort of CDN set up. Could you point me to how you went about setting up the CDN for your domain/website? Thanks!
No CDN. The secret is way simpler: It’s a static site. Just a bunch of files served directly by Nginx. I use Pelican to generate the site from Markdown files.
Hosting a whole bunch of stuff for myself, the family and also the public. For the larger family I’m hosting eMail but using a managed service offering for that (Hetzner). Too old to run my own IMAP/SMTP infrastructure ;)
For a few private societies I’m hosting:
- Mattermost
- NextCloud
- WordPress https://www.uckermark-blog.de/
For the public I host:
- Mastodon at https://hub.uckermark.social
- Mastodon at https://tetrax.de/
- BookWyrm at https://books.mxhdr.net/
- Mobilizon at https://termine.uckermark.social/
- MatrixChat at https://matrix.mxhdr.net
- Element WebUI for Matrix at https://element-web.explain-it.org/
Mostly formyself, but not restricted I’m hosting:
- Pixelfed
- LinkDing for Bookmarks
- Excalidraw
- Grafana
- OverLeaf
- StandardNotes Server
- PiHole
- GitTea
- FreshRSS
- Minio S3-kompatible Object Storage as Backend for Mastodon & Pixelfed (on an old Dell Optiplex at home over my DSL Line)
- GoToSocial Fediverse Client (On a RaspberryPi at home)
- PeerTube for public projects (on the same old Dell OptiPlex)
- PeerTube as private Video Streaming platform (on a Dell Precision 3500 tower)
Most services run in Docker Containers on some VPS at Hetzner. Some stuff runs in Docker Containers on old spare hardware at home.
Are you using the mail service from Hetzner or are you using their servers to host it yourself?
I’m using the Mail service from Hetzner. I did host my own eMails for more than 10 years but eventually decided it’s too much hassle.
I’m also using their mail servers, but I’m having some issues with DKIM. Is DKIM working fine for you?
I’ve got a couple VPSes, hosting
- Mailcow, because email is identity.
- Asterisk, because phone #s are also identity.
- Matrix-Synapse, for personal messaging even though XMPP is probably better.
- ttrss, even though it’s junk software with a jerk developer.
- A bunch of self-developed web apps
Self hosting email is obnoxious, but it’s also one of the only remnants of the traditional distributed internet that’s still broadly accepted.
Hi, could you detail how you utilise Asterisk?
Have you tried FreshRSS for feeds ? I’m pretty happy with it.
I just got going on matrix and I wish there were better XMPP iOS apps. Chat services without friends don’t work and bad iOS apps keeps people away. After all this time there isn’t a good adoption of XMPP for iOS except iMessage I guess.

With docker being so easy I have kind of lost track how much stuff i am hosting. A problem i never thought i would have :)
If there is RAM to spare… one more selfhosted service can’t be bad hahaha
