Since selfhosted clouds seem to be the most common thing ppl host, i’m wondering what else ppl here are selfhosting. Is anyone making use of something like excalidraw in the workplace? Curious about what apps that would be useful to always access over the web that aren’t mediaservers.

    SearXNG, Forgejo, Linkwarden, Vaultwarden, copyparty, all the Servarr apps, qBittorrent and SABnzbd for downloads, Syncthing, Mastodon, and all the various containers like databases and other tools that support the aforementioned.

    Local LLMs, I’m surprised no one brought that up yet. I’ve got an old GPU in my server, and I’m running some local models with openweb-ui for use in the browser and Maid for an Android app to connect to it.

      You’re a brave one admitting that on here. Don’t you know LLM’s are pure evil? You might as well be torturing children!

        Ais fine as a tool, trying to replace workers and artists while blatantly ripping stuff off is annoying, it can be a timesaver or just helpful for searching through your own docs/files

          If you agree it’s a time saver, then you agree it makes workers more efficient. You now have a team of 5 doing the work of a team of 6. From a business perspective it’s idiotic to have more people than you need to, so someone would be let go from that team.

          I personally don’t see any issue with this, as it’s been happening for the existence of humanity.

          Tools are constantly improving that make us more efficient.

          Most of people’s issue with AI is more an issue with greedy humans, and not the technology itself. Lord knows that new team of 5 is not getting the collective pay as the previous team of 6.

        I think most people on here are reasonable, and I think local LLMs are reasonable.

        The race to AGI and companies trying to shove “AI” into everything is kind of insane, but it’s hard to deny LLMs are useful and running them locally you dont have privacy concerns.

          Interesting, this has not been my experience. Most people on here seem to treat AI as completely black and white, with zero shades of grey.

            I see a mix, don’t get me wrong, Lemmy is definitely opinionated lol, but I don’t think it’s quite black and white.

            Also, generally, I’m not going to not share my thoughts or opinions because I’m afraid of people that don’t understand nuance, sometimes I don’t feel like dealing with it, but I’m going to share my opinion most of the time.

            OP asked what you self host that isn’t media, self hosted LLMs is something I find very useful and I didn’t see mentioned. Home assistant, pihole, etc, all great answers… But those were already mentioned.

            I still have positive upvotes on that comment, and no one has flamed me yet, but we will see.

              I’ll give my recommendation to local LLMs as well. I have a 1060 super that I bought years ago in 2019 and it’s just big enough to do some very basic auto completion within visual studio. I love it. I wouldn’t trust it to write an entire program on its own, but when I have hit a mental block and need a rough estimate of how to use a library or how I can arrange some code, it gives me enough inspiration to get through that hump.

                Ya exactly! Or just sanity checking if you understand how something works, I use it a lot for that, or trying to fill in knowledge gaps.

                Also qwen3 is out, check that out, it might fit on a 1060.

    Depends on what you consider self-hosted. Web applications I use over LAN include Home Assistant, NextRSS, Syncthing, cockpit-machines (VM host), and media stuff (Jellyfin, Kavita, etc). Without web UI, I also run servers for NFS, SMB, and Joplin sync. Nothing but a Wireguard VPN is public-facing; I generally only use it for SSH and file transfer but can access anything else through it.

    I’ve had NextCloud running for a year or two but honestly don’t see much point and will probably uninstall it.

    I’ve been planning to someday also try out Immich (photo sync), Radicale (calendar), ntfy.sh, paperless-ngx, ArchiveBox (web archive), Tube Archivist (YouTube archive), and Frigate NVR.

    Foundry VTT (I know it’s technically for a game but it’s technically a virtual tabletop and not a game itself)

    AI Chatbots for tech support

    I technically self-host an image generation AI through my main home PC, but that’s made less accessable and only on when I specifically demand it via ssh lol

    Occasionally I’ll throw a temp website up for local events for like event schedules or whatever, an easily accessable and editable html file or whatever

        I just started porting a DnD Beyond campaign into it and using it to store homebrew world info for a future game, but so far it’s been basically everything I ever wanted from Roll20 or DDB, but self-hosted and they give you access to the code so you can just… Code in features you want

        Thinking about pirating the FFXIV TTRPG when someone puts it up and making it in Foundry if it’s not already done by someone smarter eventually lol

        Lol, when I moved the most recent pihole version had just got released so I wanted to check it out. I have pihole service my IoT network and 3 adguard->unbound instances setup for my main network for fallbacks 🤣.

        But yeah I hate ads/trackers with a burning passion as you can see hahaha

    1. Gitlab (version control)
    2. Bookstack (wiki)
    3. Joplin (not a webapp, but sync server)
    4. Semaphore (does all of my infra updating via Ansible)
    5. Uptime-Kuma (monitoring/alerting)

    Been thinking about adding NextCloud mostly for the Google Docs/MS Office replacement at some point.

    But honestly most of my stuff is just for me, my family prefers to to use whatever commercial thing is out there. So I tend to limit things to infrastructure type things that are of personal interest to me alone.

        It is allotted 16GB out of the 62GB total that the host has. Which is the amount their docs call for in a 20 RPS or 1000 user scenario. Since I am the only one doing any commits or pulls, it does fine.

        Does take its sweet time to reboot though. 😆

            It is all running in a Proxmox cluster. 2 nodes have 62GB and one has 32GB. So while it is a good chunk. Not enough to bottleneck available RAM for other things in the cluster.

    I randomly think about something I want, and then usually find it here. Used to be a GitHub repo, but it got so popular and useful they got a nice site with search and all, now.

    I don’t have as much running anymore outside media/games, but I do still run Stirling PDF as an Acrobat Pro alternative.
