Most used selfhosted services in 2022?

• Nextcloud

  608 25,637 10.0 PHP

  ☁️ Nextcloud server, a safe home for all your data

  

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?

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)
