Nextcloud - I honestly don't know why I run nextcloud. I currently use it to automatically backup phone photos, and share a small subset of the files I sync with seafile (nextcloud file sync *sucks* compared to seafile, but the sharing UI is a little better), but it's mediocre at that, kind of like it's mediocre at everything else. Why do so many of y'all host it? Is there anything it does well that I'm missing?

RE: Your update, on https://selfhosted-services-2022.deployn.de/ you have the wrong link for miniflux. It should be https://github.com/miniflux/v2 instead :D
-
- navidrome : a music server. I'm really glad I found this, i'm running 2 instances, one at home, and one on an oracle free trier ubuntu. The only thing I would change is to have the same album view but for artists.

-Jellyfin (It's... Jellyfin. Can't say much more about it that hasn't already been said.)
-
-Immich (Photo backup. Just set this up last week so I can't say much yet about it, but with the exception of a few minor kinks it seems to get the job done pretty solidly.)

Home Assistant
:house_with_garden: Open source home automation that puts local control and privacy first.
I have a ton running in my environment, but I will pair the list down to just a few that are critical for my daily life... - Home Assistant: Like most here, this is probably my most-used Self-Hosted service! I have two instances running, one at home & one for my Vacation Home. - Plex: I run a massive (40+TB) media server at home, and I have been running Plex to support that for the past 7 years. Before Plex, I had a somewhat large Windows Media Server setup... and when I cut the cord and moved to Plex... I have never looked back! (Do use all of the *arr's as well to feed the beast!) - Heimdall Dashboard: I have tried Organizr V2, and others... but I keep coming back to Heimdall. I really hate this saying, but "It Just Works!!!" - Grafana: I enjoy looking at historical data about my environment... and Grafana seems to make the prettiest dashboards! To be fair, I use Grafana at work as well... so I could be a little based. :P - MinIO: I see this one getting often overlooked... but if you need some S3 style storage in your Self-Hosted life... this is it! I use several MinIO containers around my environment... for object storage of regular data, as well as backup data (using restic)

- unmanic : basically a FFmpeg GUI. I just wanted to test it and next thing I know, I passed through multiples tv shows and got down from 8TB to 6.5TB
-
- jellyseerr : a media request management, a fork of overseerr for jellyfin. Friends are mostly using requestrr but I wanted a backup solution as it's not maintained anymore and it could break anytime. It's far from being perfect but it does the job (it's getting rate limited a lot by pihole because it always wants to synchronize with jellyfin, I reduced the cron jobs to reduce it a bit).
-
-Trilium (I use it for notes. Joplin was my go-to until I needed something with a web-ui.)

Some important services for me: 1. Wireguard: I have bypass rules in Authelia since I’m too lazy to login to my services. Wireguard also provides adblock on-the-go. 2. Samba server: use to transfer files between iPhone/iPad/laptop. Didn’t expect I’m depending on it too much. 3. Webtop: aka my lite/fake VM. I mounted my data directory to this container, mostly use it when i need GUI to move/edit files on my server. Accessible through web browser or RDP protocol. 4. Diversion: adblock on Asus router. Easy to setup adblock with vpn. Also no need to setup 2 Adblock instances. Another advantage, asus router can force all dns queries through this, bypass hard coded dns on some devices. 5. Cockpit with file sharing plugin: easily manage samba/nfs share

Two other great mentions is restic & Obisidan! I just started migrating my backup tasks from Duplicati to restic. Less overhead to run, and I get the same benefits of what Duplicati was providing. I never really used the Duplicati website often enough to miss it, so restic's command line interface works for me!

MonitoRSS
Discord RSS bot (formerly known as Discord.RSS) with customizable feeds. https://monitorss.xyz
Monitor-RSS with rss-bridge Monitor-RSS allows me to filter RSS feeds obtained from rss-bridge with keywords and let's me embed them to discord. I mainly use xpath on rss-bridge to scrape sports news (fantasy football injuries) and add those feeds to Monitor-RSS that allows to filter them by player names or anything specific I am interested in. Sending those filtered feeds to Discord results in easy reading and manage them via discord tag or channel notifications. This way I get notified for stuff I am interested in and ignore anything not relevant 😎

Logitec Media Server - Music server. Yes, I'm old enough to have a still-working original squeezebox, as well as multiple squeezebox radios. They're awesome.
-
librephotos
A self-hosted open source photo management service. This is the repository of the backend.
LibrePhotos - Man, I *so* want a google photos replacement that gives me control over how my photos are organized. Photoprism and LibrePhotos are both almost there. Of the two, I chose LibrePhotos mainly because I like how the project is run, and because it doesn't rely on making humongous thumbnails of all your media (so therefore uses about 1/4 the space in its database).
-
MythTV - Amazing (if a bit crotchety) PVR for OTA TV programming, as well as a decent media server. I think I might be the only one on this list running it! :D
-
transmission-wireguard - This is just a simple docker-compose config which combines transmission with a wireguard tunnel, and ensures that no transmission traffic goes outside the tunnel.
-
Apache - Web server. Required for MythTV, but I also use it as my reverse SSL proxy for everything else.
