I've been working on expanding my homelab recently. I have a physical box at home serving as an LXC host along with a few VPSes. I'm now up to:
- Some static web sites
- Nextcloud
- Jellyfin
- Forgejo
- NTFY
- A reverse proxy
- An IRC server
- A Gemini server
- A VPN
- DNS servers
I think I read an old blog post once that said "Servers tend to multiply like rabbits" and it's 100% true.
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.
Hi
I started self hosting 3 years ago when I got wind of tailscale. I've always cared about privacy and building things so that was great.
My infrastructure consists of two machines.
One - my personal and work server A deskmini i3 12th gen
256GB Boot drive 4TB NVME data drive
-photoprism -syncthing -nextcloud -Firefox+VPN -archivebox
Two - my media server that I let 6ish other people access - PC tower i3 12th gen
512GB Boot and docker config file drive 4*4TB HDD mergerfs for raw data
-jellyfin -*arr suite -gluetun VPN -audiobookshelf (also for auto downloading podcasts) -calibre-web
I turned my last two gaming PCs into Proxmox hosts and I have a Hetzner vps that will host something eventually.
2010 Gaming PC:
- Pihole VM (w/ Unbound)
- Docker teet VM
- Piwigo
- Chevereto
Pihole is running on a keepalived vip that acts as my secondary DNS server. Gravity sync keeps it in line with my main Pihole VM (push/pull) and then I have an old rpi also on the same keepalived vip that has gravity sync set up that pulls from the secondary VM
Anything I run as an evaluation or that needs testing also runs here. This machine gets Proxmox updates first as well.
2016 Gaming PC:
- unRAID VM
- Pihole VM (w/ Unbound)
- Nextcloud
- Nginx Proxy Manager
- Gitea
- Dozzle
- Docker container registry
- Diun
- Caddy (moving away from NPM)
- Photoprism
- Jellyfin
- Plex
- Tautulli
- Bookstack
- Heimdall
- Netbox
- Unifi Controller
- Wikijs
- Paperless-ngx
- Uptime kuma
- Gluetun
- Deluge
- Homarr
- Lidarr
- Miniflux
- NZBget
- Radarr
- Sonarr
- Readarr
These are split amongst a few VMs depending on criticality and further broken down to needs (VPN, whether or not I can reboot and not affect my wife/kids, network share requirements.
I'm pretty much always tweaking something and having fun with it
