Anyone else have it ? The more work I do setting things up like dockers, reverse proxies, single sign on, etc. the more I want to do it. But I’m running out of ideas of things to host that would actually benefit me. But I have that itch where I want more lol.
So far I have the following: (EDIT: added descriptions for those who aren’t familar with all of it. )
- Caddy - use this primarily as a reverse proxy to access my applications via my domain and outside the house
 - Nextcloud - mainly using it for cloud storage but also some of their other apps likes decks and tasks as well as contacts and calendar.
 - Memos - simple note taking app similar to twitter but personal.
 - Miniflux - rss
 - Authentik - sso
 - Portainer - web view of dockers and status / health
 - KitchenOwl - groceries / recipe management
 - Actual - zero budgeting (like YNAB)
 - Firefly iii - finances management
 - Immich - images / iCloud replacement
 - Organizr (barely using it. Trying to think of more use cases) - dashboard of all my services
 - Speedtest - runs daily speed tests and monitors.
 - Plex - host my media library
 - Plex_Debrid / rclone - sync real Debrid with plex.
 - rsync to backup data to one onsite and one off site location. Automated backups
 - Watchtower automated docker updates
 - Home Assistant - home automation
 - Home bridge - Apple home automation
 - Zigbee2mqtt - manage zigbee smart home devices
 - Unifi controller - manage my network
 
I think that’s everything!
Edit: Thanks for the overwhelming responses! I really appreciate everyone with their opinions. First things first I did get borg setup for both my server and my desktop so thats awesome! I am waiting for response from my backup server admin if they can install rdiff-backup for me so I can utilize that as well for my cloud backups.
Going to take a look at a few other of the many suggestions here! More than a few I like!


Yeah that’s a good point. I don’t see why not. Thanks I’ll probably give it a shot.
