Presently, my Fediverse presence is mostly self-hosted by one definition or another. This Lemmy instance lives on my server, and my Masto is hosted by a company dedicated to exactly that because it’s dirty cheap and one fewer thing for me to worry about.

Looking to add to the list.

Currently split between VMs and physicals. I’m refactoring these ,with plans to build out and migrate much of it to a minipc proxmox cluster.

Adding:

• proxmox

• podman/portainer

• unbound

• ngnx proxy mgr

• Solid server

• homepage

• matrix

• searxng

• some sort of mail stack, TBD

Proxmox on a self-built rackserver (Will be building a second one for a proxmox cluster):

• Pi-Hole (primary)
• Home Assistant
• 2 Docker Hosts (One for Eval, one for Prod)

Raspberry Pi Zero for Pi-Hole (secondary)

On my Docker Host (All in docker-compose):

• Heimdall (Personal Dashboard)
• Portainer (Docker GUI)
• baikal (CAL & CADdav)
• vaultwarden (Password Manager)
• bookstack (Documentation, kinda abandoned because im lazy)
• changedetection(.)io (Monitoring Websites for Changes, useful for changelogs or price monitoring)
• cloudflare-ddns (DDNS because dynamic IP Adresses…)
• Grafana & InfluxDB (Dashboard and Database for Stats)
• linkding (Bookmarks aka “Have to read someday”)
• mealie (Reciepe manager)
• neko (Watch2gether but in selfhosted and more capable imo)
• nginx proxy manager (Reverse Proxy with GUI)
• paperless-ngx (Document manager with OCR)
• semaphore ui (Ansible GUI with sheduled tasks)
• Uptime Kuma (Status Monitoring)
• watchtower (Automatic updates of my docker containers because im lazy)

A Synology DS220+ for local Storage

A 5TB Hetzner Storage Box for Backups (encrypted)

A Rootserver for Games and some testing in the wild (Currently Windows, will be switched to ubuntu)

Hetzner Cloud Server with mailcow on it

My “Home Lab” loosely put, is an amalgamation of this:

Docker and Docker Compose installed on Ubuntu on a Dell PowerEdge 530 and on that docker host I have: -Portainer

-Nginx Proxy Manager

-Cloudflare Dynamic DNS

-Chromium

-Dozzle

-Gluetun

-Homarr

-Jellyfin

-Kanboard

-Komga

-Radarr

-Lidarr

-Sonarr

-Navodrome

-netbooyxyz (work in progress)

-Prowlarr

-qBittorrent

-Pairdrop

-Resilio-Sync

-Searxng

-Siganl CLI container for alerts

-Uptime Kuma

-VSCode

-WikiJS

-Watchtower

On one of my Pi’s:

-Pihole

-Pialert

-fail2ban

-PIVPN

-Unbound

The weakest part of my setup arguably is between my storage “solution” and my networking setup.

Storage is just a bunch of large drives in the Dell. Next upgrade is a new router solution, but still use my current router for a wireless access point strictly for IOT and putting my other devices on separate VLANs.

I was thinking about getting a Nextcloud going, but not sure I want to as of right now.

Host all the things!

Wordpress, SMTP/IMAP, tor, bittorrent, Nextcloud, Plex, NTP, photo galleries, DoT…

I even started hosting the website for my local Italian restaurant and they haven’t even realised it yet.

Just testing from selfhosted instance!

I have a rented server with 8 Xeon E3-1246 and 64GB at Hetzner where I host:

• Vaultwarden
• Gitlab (git repo, container registry, static blog (pages with Hugo))
• Drawio (Diagrams)
• Kroki (for Gitlab)
• Gitlab runner
• FreshRSS
• Nextcloud
• Redis
• Headscale (Tailscale server)
• Keycloak
• MariaDB
• PostgreSQL
• Plex
• Privacybin
• Wallabag
• Hedgedoc

It’s all behind a Traefik instance handling Let’s Encrypt and using the Docker socket to route traffic based on labels in docker-compose.yml. Behind these I also run k3s and from time to time some VMs. I also have a 1TB storage pod at Hetzner where I use restic to back everything up from this instance as well as from my home system and laptops.

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

Been self hosting for over a decade at this point. Mix of custom built servers and surplus hardware over the years.

To name a few of my daily servers.

• home assistant
• paperless-ng
• jellyfin
• nextcloud
• blue iris
• audiobook shelf

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 :)

Available from internet:

• jellyfin
• jellyseerr
• immich
• paperless-ngx
• owncloud ocis
• traefik
• homarr

Available only from local:

• the *arr stack
• qbittorrent
• jackett
• watchtower
• apprise
• netdata (kinda new, still have to fully understand how it works)
• portainer
• speedtest-tracker
• homepage

Security

All the services available from internet, just goes through traefik to terminate https, I rely on the build in authentication of each service. To add another layer of security, I have fail2ban active on all those services.

I have a public IP, and I have open on my router ports 80, 443, a random port for ssh and vpn.

Hardware:

Memory:
  System RAM: total: 8 GiB available: 7.73 GiB used: 4.46 GiB (57.7%)
  Report: arrays: 1 slots: 4 modules: 2 type: DDR3
CPU:
  Info: 6-core model: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T bits: 64 type: MCP cache: L2: 3 MiB
Graphics:
  Device-1: NVIDIA GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050 Ti] driver: nvidia v: 535.98

docker compose files

All the docker compose files + how I configured everything is available at: https://github.com/simone-viozzi/my-server

Bonus:

Since I like the ability of btrfs to do snapshots, I created all important docker volumes as btrfs subvolumes. Then I created a backup script that literally sends the subvolume (encrypted) to an external cloud. This does not allow incremental backups and most likely is not the best backup solution… but it works… the repo is: https://github.com/simone-viozzi/btrfs2cloud-backup

I welcome any advice / criticism!

Can’t ask too much off my little laptop, but here it is

• HomeAssistant
• Frigate NVR
• PiHole
• Wireguard VPN

I don’t selfhost very much compared to other people and my hardware’s pretty much either all literally found in the garbage or 2nd hand, but here it is

PiHole

WireGuard server that passes trough pihole adblocking

Homarr (lol)

Deluge

The system is mostly a NAS that I also run the occasinal general purpose VM off of, here are the specs for the 3 ppl that care:

CPU: AMD FX-8320E

RAM: 16GB

Storage: 5x2TB Seagate something something 7200RPM in RAIDz1, 128 GB random chinese SSD (mostly for VMs and apps) the, OS runs off of a flash drive

OS: TrueNAS scale
