selfhosted

I’m looking to upgrade my Plex and game server. I currently have an i5-4690K with 16 GB DDR3 and it’s struggling a lot. My PSU is a 850W gold rated EVGA from 2017 so I don’t think it needs upgraded quite yet since I’ve been way under the wattage for most of its life....

I have two systems that I need to replace. One is my backup server, which runs FreeBSD and uses some USB attached drives. Really that could be done with anything that is like a Pi, except amd64/x86....

hello guys i am wondering what are some must have iso’s for a ventoy drive? and what size ventoy drive would you recomend (i am considering buying a 512gb, 1tb or 2tb tranced 220s nvme)...

I am in self hosting for a bit now, have an unraid server and a bunch of services running. Now I want to expose some services through a reverse proxy, but with authentication, preferably google oauth2. I’ve tried a lot of things, Authentik, Authelia, NPM, and so on. I found everything way to complicated. What I liked the most...

This is a slow learning process for me and some of you already helped me a lot to figure out reverse proxies in general. However, I’m not there yet … so:...

The question above for the most part, been reading up on it. Also want to it for learning purposes.

I don’t know if this is relevant, but it has to connect to the internet using the phone line...

I’ve got 1000/50 service from a mid-size ISP. It’s pretty consistent- any time I run a speed test from home, it will hit those numbers. I have an opnsense plugin checking twice a day....

Hi there,...

I’m thinking of picking up some parts or using an old laptop to host a few services, passbolt being one of them. I’ve seen that it requires an SMTP server though. Is this actually required? And would I be able to use this without getting a domain name?

I want to set up a collaborative writing/socializing platform for my friend group using something like Calckey/Misskey, and just want to know if this is possible....

Hi, so I launched my very own instance. I’m posting from here, and hopefully this post makes it there. I subscribed to a few coms, but I’m getting outdated posts and the votes don’t line up, also the comments do not all load. So I’m able to federate, but for some reason only some of the data is coming over to my...

So, I’ve found that there are a lot of ways to backup a server and anything on it, but I’m somewhat at a loss for what to use to backup everything else to that server....

I see a lot of people here uses some form of remote access tool (VPN/Tailscale) to access their home network when not at home. I can’t really do this because my phone (iOS) can only activate one VPN profile at a time, and I often need this for other stuff....

For the vast majority of docker images, the documentation only mention a super long and hard to understand “docker run” one liner....

Running a TrueNAS Scale server with Jellyfin and planning to add Nextcloud. How would I be able to access these services from outside my network? I have heard portforwarding is unsafe and a VPN seems inconvenient to me.

I have a laptop and a desktop-based-server on a 192.168.1.x segment on my network. I want to setup Tailscale between them....

I currently use an old (2013?) Intel NUC with a 12TB MyBook plugged in as a simple Plex server. I want to get a NAS. Right now at Amazon or B&H I can get a DS923+ w/ two 16TB HDDS for about $1000....

I just started getting into self hosting using docker compose and I wonder about possible backup solutions. I only have to safe my docker config so far, but I want host files as well. What software and hardware are you using for backup?

Can I do what the title said? It could be useful when I’m on a sketchy WiFi. I’m asking as I’m already using ZeroTier to access my home server and this could be another nice use.

I recently set up Nextcloud, and so far I’m really enjoying it. With the exception of Gmail and Backblaze, I’m no longer using any online services that aren’t self-hosted on my own hardware; Nextcloud has allowed me to get rid of the last few Google services I was using....

So, I have some idea on what a reverse proxy does and will be using nginx (with the neat proxy manager UI) for my setup....

Does anyone have a recommendation for someone with a domain name and a k8s cluster where I can set up a simple image and/or video host?...

Hopefully I’m posting this in the right place. I’m planning on using immich for selfhosted photo storage. I’m a bit worried that I may lose all my photos if my drive fails, so I’m planning on running two hdd’s in raid 1 in addition to my nvme that I’m running my OS on....

As the title reads, I really want to begin hosting my own email server again. I’m sick of the poor quality of the service providers out there. Damnit all I want/need is a reliable IMAP/SMTP provider. I spent 3 hours getting off of Hostinger and on to Zoho. I just hope Zoho won’t suck. It’s great for now but we’ll see....
