Right now only Syncthing on a Raspi. I'm lazy π
How about what I'm not self-hosting? Lemmy. If anyone has an up to date guide on self-hosting a single user instance of lemmy that is actually easy to follow, that would be great. I just want to control my user account.
I have a dedicated server where I run multiple service with podman.
All those instance are close for inscriptions they are just for me or friends. I use posftix to relay mail. I have on postgresql instance shared across the services. I use traefik for ssl, I wanted traefik to auto discover the container but it didn't work when I tried maybe it works now.
A Groovy bot replacement for me and my friends.
I'm sure I'm forgetting a few things, but that's mostly what I host here at home. My lemmy instance is on DigitalOcean.
This is my little setup at work
Kubernetes cluster (created by kubespray)
VFIO KVM/ QEMU GPU passthrough for Windows VM for Solidworks. A forked program that I've turned into something completely different, I took some random http server from github and made it convert PDFs to Excel, linked it to my website so it can be used. Got a small network share for all the movies I've got which is kinda a lot Made a VM with a dedicated nic for managing my websites
Everything is on One PC, got 4 more systems that have no purpose and are there if this one dies so I have reserve. Any ideas on how to repurpose them? Also on todo list is an self hosted mail server that I'm yet to do because of domain issues. They are expensive lol
I host the following in my house:
the following in digitalocean cause uptime is super important -mastodon -lemmy -matrix -url shortener for fediverse
All are running ubuntu server
One Raspberry Pi 4B running HomeAssistant connected to ESPHome sensors and other stuff around house, feeding into InfluxDB. The other Pi is hosting Syncthing, Jellyfin, Samba NAS, PiHole, Wireguard via PiVPN
Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi
I really want to get something like a Synology NAS to run a media server / VPN server / PiHole / NAS server on, but I don't have $500-$1000 to drop on new hardware right now.
Running a full Monero Node with p2pool functionality on a home server, also PiHole and a small web server. VPS has a VPN for my use. VPS also has a SearXNG instance.
Well, I'm not running it currently for reasons, but I used to host a Jellyfin media server on my desktop, but that was inconvenient as it was the desktop I was actually using. Eventually I switched from Pop!_OS to Fedora which lacked Jellyfin transcoding support and I had to stop hosting it. In a few days I should get a 1050ti to complete the setup and then I will be back up and running on my first dedicated server. I will probably look in to hosting a mail server, a nas, bitwarden, and possibly a librex or searx search engine on it once it is up and running. It is an old system with 3gb of ddr2 and an athelon 64 x2 from 2005 but it should do the trick for everything I want out of it. Right now I am just hoping that the new GPU doesn't trigger current protection on the cheapo PSU that is in there.
Edit: I'm also going to set up an i2p seedbox for obscure torrents.
