Pi zero running pihole

unRAID server running

• Plex
• Sonarr
• Radarr
• Scrutiny
• ArchiveTeam warrior
• And much more

I only turn the unRAID server on when needed however. The summers here in Denmark is beginning to be unbearable, so I don't need any more heat in my apartment.

Unraid OS Plus

i7-3700K, 16GB DDR3 RAM, 32TB

• 2x Wordpress sites
• Prowlarr / Radarr / Sonarr / qBittorrent
• Emby
• Home Assistant
• CTBRec
• Immich
• Reactle

Mail server, pi-hole, mediawiki, kanboard, Tiny Tiny RSS, Baïkal, Minetest, Transmission, Jellyfin, Filestash and some homebrew.

I use Wireguard to access all that from outside my network. This way, my mail server only exposes smtp.

My current homelab build is a 5950X w/128GB and... well it's more complicated than that.

Currently running in Proxmox (in no particular order!):

• LinuxGSM - game servers
• Multicraft - Minecraft servers
• Zammad helpdesk (for a non-critical service, hosting at home as failover)
• Plex - using Nvidia T600 for transcoding
• PopOS compute VMs x2 - one of which currently running InvokeAI with 2xGPU, 40GB VRAM total
• Windows 10 gaming VM (was for passthrough, hardly used now!)
• Docker, including:

1. Channels DVR - live TV streaming/recording
2. Deemix - music downloader
3. Flame - homepage
4. Gogs x2 - Git repositories
5. Nginx Proxy Manager
6. Nzbget - Usenet downloader
7. Prowlarr - indexer
8. Qbittorrentvpn - VPN and torrent downloader
9. Radarr - movies
10. Requestrr - Discord -arr request bot
11. Sonarr - TV
12. Uptime-Kuma x2 - uptime bots
13. Wallabag - bookmarks

• mail opensmtpd on openbsd, pi
• homeassistant on pi
• nextcloud on dietpi
• pihole on pi
• calibre-web on dietpi

Using gentoo Linux with raspberry pi 4B

Proxmox on i7-6700 32GB -- VMs are debian unless otherwise specified:

-Home Assistant (HAOS)

-motionEye

-openmediavault

-Plex, Ombi, sonarr, radarr (Windows) -- someday I will migrate all of this to debian VMs

I have DietPi running on an RPi 4 with 4GB RAM.

Everything here is hosted in docker containers:

• Portainer (docker management)
• Nginx Proxy Manager (for reverse proxy)
• Nextcloud (file storage + calendar)
• Kanboard (task management + kanban board)
• Homepage
• Transmission (behind VPN with Flood web frontend)
• Jellyfin media server
• A Discord bot for my server
• Watchman, my RSS feed to Kindle setup (https://github.com/andrwcnln/watchman)

I've probably forgotten some things but that's the main bulk of it. Can't recommend DietPi enough if you are looking for a super lightweight OS for you Pi server, has been perfect for me so far. Here are some things I am looking to host in the future too:

• ntfy (for push notifications)
• Apache server for my websites
• Pi-hole
• Plausible (a replacement for Google analytics for websites)
• Vaultwarden

I self-host the test servers for some projects I have been working for and an awesome private GitLab instance. Besides that I also host some minecraft servers, lemmy, a samba share, two openvpn servers and an nginx proxy. Awesome and educational so far!

To answer my own question:

• E-mail (postfix, dovecot, rspamd, clamav)
• Web (nginx), various small websites including my homepage
• Fediverse Microblogging (Mastodon)
• Matrix Chat (synapse)
• XMPP Chat (prosody)
• Music streaming (mpd, snapcast)
• Home automation (home assistant and my own lighthome stuff, mqtt)
• IRC bouncer (znc)

And the basics of course:

• SSH (openssh)
• NFS

All running on an Ubuntu Linux server, but everything is containerised into mostly Alpine Linux podman (rootless) containers (and a few lxc containers which I'm phasing out).

Local server running my NAS, Technitium DNS, Jenkins + build nodes, OpenVPN, Forgejo, my Debian package mirror, the central LDAP server for auth, Lemmy, and a couple straggler services. Still working on setting up some more stuff for me and my housemates.

Running everything on an old dual Xeon box running TrueNAS, works wonders with no downtime so far!

Pleroma, Owncast, Nextcloud, an internet radio station, and a couple web sites.

Currently: RPi4 with CasaOS, running Pihole and Home Assistant, which I honestly rarely use, unfortunately.

Potentially planned: -Jellyfin -Rustdesk server -Some samba solution on RPi4 for my hdd I currently have hooked to my router, any advice on what I should look into for that would be appreciated.

Unfortunately much less and much less efficiently than I'd like; atm it's Plex on an old Windows 7 laptop, and an SMB/NFS server on a Rock64 with an 8TB external hard drive.

Quassal Core on a linode, but that's cloud VPS, not my hardware, so not really self-hosting, even if I'm directly handling the OS and configuration.

I'd like to set up more. Ideally I'd like to set up two RAID backup servers, at seperate buildings, and have everything within the building back up to the local server multiple times per day, then have the servers perform incremental backups to each other once a day. ideally running on something small and cheap that I can leave in my dad's basment next to his router; "I got backups set up dad, it's this machine, you can pretty much ignore it, but let me know if you happen to notice it not running."

Figuring out Borg would be nice; dad's laptop is of course Windows, which Borg doesn't play nice with, but from the server on his end on, it'd all be linux. I just need to get a couple low-power high-storage boxen built.

• Heimdall
• Home Assistant
• Plex
• Nginx Proxy Manager - ram hog
• Adguard
• NodeRed
• ZWaveJS
• Zigbee2Mqtt
• Portainer
• qBittorent
• Ring-MQTT

Running on a minisofurm mini pc with 5600h, paid $219 and used spare drives and ram lying around. Used to run 2 raspberry pi 4s but retired those due to updating home assistant via docker getting really old. Proxmox handles things great, like the flexibility and performance boost too, especially just pulling docker images lol, unarchiving was so painful on pi 4.

Syncthing, Plex, and DokuWiki.

My needs are small but Syncthing is for standard file sync and DokuWiki is for a repository for my family. It's been surprisingly useful to be able to spin and delete up a syncthing folder for some specific thing.

Plex is for my ripped DVDs and also a great way to consume my photos archive without keeping a copy locally on my phone.
