Thinking of self-hosting some basic tools; SearxNG, Bitwarden, Lemmy.
What kind of tools are you self-hosting right now? Which ones are easy to manage, which ones are awkward? 👀

I host the following off of the top of my head, in no particular order. Some are hosted at home on a combination of a Raspberry Pi 4 and a Synology DS1821+ NAS, some are hosted on a dedicated server:
I also run PFSense at home for my router, on a Protectli Vault, if that counts as self-hosting. Seems more like sysadmin, but there you go. I use Uptimerobot to monitor everything and create sleek public status pages.
I had no idea you could host your own Bitwarden instance. The whole reason I moved to Bitwarden in the first place was one of the Lastpass hacks, being in control of my own password manager instance from my favorite password manager would be amazing. Is it free to self- host?
Also curious about your UniFi controller, are you considering a DM/DM Pro a 'self-hosted' controller or do you use one of those Dockerized container solutions?
I use Vaultwarden in Docker, which is a light-weight Rust implementation of the Bitwarden server. You can just point any of the apps or browser extensions to your server at login and it works seamlessly. The oficial Bitwarden Server is also available, but when last I used it, it was much more resource intensive and had a number of docker containers as dependencies instead of the single container for Vaultwarden.
For UniFi, I use a docker image--currently, I'm using this one.
Thanks for the reply - I'm going to have to look into Vaultwarden, that is a very exciting/enticing idea.
I am not so sure about Bitwarden self-hosted, I think it is free with a limited set of features, but there is Vaultwarden by Dani Garcia on GitHub which works very well and is compatible with the official Bitwarden Clients, just in case the Web Interface is not enough.
