Hey all, I've been slowly building services on my server over many many years, starting with running a minecraft ftb server, to where I am now, which is 1 primary system(providing the network filesystem) and 2 auxiliary minipc systems my brother in law recently donated. I moved from Docker to Docker Swarm after getting those MiniPC's and enjoying the added compute. Currently my swarm is running:

  • PiHole x2 - AdBlocking and Local DNS Management
  • Wg-easy - for Wireguard VPN Management
  • nginx - for reverse proxy servicing
  • authentik - for Authentication and SSO
  • Duplicati - for cloud backups(pointing at backblaze buckets)
  • Guacamole - for RDP services
  • Grafana+Prometheus+Node-Exporter+Cadvisor+AlertManager - for aggregation and system monitoring
  • Gatus - single pane of glass monitoring of services(might remove it now that I've started using Grafana)
  • diun - monitoring docker image versions and notification
  • Bookstack - Personal Knowledge Base system
  • Linkwarden - Collaborative Link Sharing and archiving
  • Fasten Health - Local Health Records Storage
  • SnipeIT - personal asset management
  • Affine - self hosted cloud notebook
  • Actual - Budgeting Software
  • it-tools - for swiss army knife utilities
  • kitchenowl - recipes and grocery lists
  • Reactive resume - for resume building with AI empowered editing
  • Onetimesecret - for burn after reading secret sharing(using it for distributing credentials to my family)
  • Searxng - Local Search Aggregation
  • Homarr - Personal Dashboarding
  • Home Assistant - Smart Home Management
  • N8n - Automating codeless workflows
  • Ollama and Open-WebUI - personal Agentic AI
  • AudioBookshelf - Audiobook streaming and Management
  • OwnCloud - local file sharing and storage
  • Plex - Video Streaming
  • BitMagnet - DHT network sniffer
  • syncthing - for transporting data between local and remote systems
  • the *Arrs - for acquiring content
  • Docspell - for digitizing and storing important documents
  • picsur - for local meme storage
  • Calibre+Calibre-web - for Ebook management
  • Crafty Controller - for Minecraft Server Management
  • RomM - For Emulation and ROM Management.

As I go about my day I'm always looking for new and interesting containers to run, and then scrutinizing if they fill a need, replace an existing service with a better version of the same service, or if it's better off not implementing, then I pull them down. this has been a great experience in devops learning and the longer I work on the server the more best practices I put in place and the more I understand why corporate clouds have some of the practices they have. I look forward to poking around in this community looking to help and to find new containers to accrete into my platform.

That’s a respectable list of apps. Looks almost like what I run sans the *arr stack. Good work!

Hey fellow self-hosters! I'm just starting but I'm now running my own instances of Jellyfin, Nextcloud, Readeck and Kitchen Owl. It's really a great feeling to know the data is safe with me!
